Over the years, ecommerce businesses have grappled with a recurring question: “Is it possible to leverage Google Shopping for Amazon products?” Until recently, it was impossible. Since you were not the owner of amazon.com, you could not put your Amazon products on Google’s shopping platform. Times have changed, thanks to BrightBridge from BrightBid. Now, you can seamlessly utilize Google Shopping ads to direct customers straight to your Amazon product pages. Let’s see how it was made possible.
The Roadblocks for Seamless Connection between Google Shopping and Amazon
Amazon store owners can benefit from using Google Shopping Ads by reaching a wider audience beyond the Amazon platform, utilizing targeted advertising to increase conversions, and driving external traffic to Amazon. Google Shopping Ads also offer enhanced product visibility, detailed analytics and insights, and the ability to adjust bidding strategies and budgets to remain competitive. Additionally, cross-promotion opportunities can boost sales and enhance brand visibility for Amazon store owners.
The main hurdle in achieving a smooth connection between Google Shopping and Amazon was the complex task of verifying domain ownership. Google, in its commitment to providing a secure and reliable online shopping experience, required shop owners to verify their ownership of the domains associated with their products.
However, verifying ownership of the amazon.com domain, which belongs to the massive ecommerce giant Amazon with its vast product catalog, presented a unique and formidable challenge. The intricacies involved in ensuring the authenticity of such a prominent and multifaceted domain became a major roadblock for the integration of these two ecommerce powerhouses.
Furthermore, this obstacle also caused frustration for users. Many customers, who were used to the convenience of using Google Shopping as their go-to platform for product searches, were left puzzled when they couldn’t find Amazon products in their search results. This disconnect disrupted the seamless experience that users expected, as they had to switch between platforms to find the products they desired.
The absence of Amazon products from Google Shopping search results not only inconvenienced users but also disrupted the cohesion that a unified shopping experience should provide. BrightBridge solved that issue.
