GOOGLE SHOPPING FEED CHECKER

Google Shopping feed checker for cleaner product data

FeedScore focuses on the source file: required product data, identifiers, URLs, images, pricing, availability and variant structure. It does not claim to predict account-level policy approval.

AUDIT SCOPE

Google Shopping feed checks included in the audit

01

Core attributes

ID, title, description, link, image link, price and availability coverage.

02

Product identifiers

Brand, GTIN and MPN presence and plausible catalog-wide patterns.

03

Price and availability

Valid formats plus signals that values may be inconsistent or incomplete.

04

Landing pages

Product and image URLs that are missing, duplicated or inaccessible.

05

Variants

Item-group consistency and coverage of size, color or other variant fields.

06

Descriptions for discovery

Weak or duplicated copy that can limit product understanding.

ISSUE PRIORITY

Common Google Shopping feed problems

Fix blockers first, then catalog-wide patterns, and leave isolated optimization opportunities for last.

HOW IT WORKS

From raw feed to prioritized fixes

1

Paste the feed URL

Use the same public data source URL you plan to fetch or upload.

2

Inspect issue groups

Separate file errors, missing attributes and optimization opportunities.

3

Fix in impact order

Start with blockers and high-volume issues, then improve content quality.

IMPORTANT DISTINCTION

What the checker cannot see

An external checker can evaluate your source data but cannot see Merchant Center account settings, crawl history, policy reviews, website verification or destination-specific decisions. Use FeedScore alongside—not instead of—Merchant Center diagnostics.

FAQ

Questions about this check

Can this guarantee Google Shopping approval?+

No. The checker can find data and file issues, but approval also depends on your website, account configuration, destinations and Google policies.

Which Google product attributes are checked?+

The audit covers core identifiers, titles and descriptions, URLs and images, prices, availability, condition, categories and common variant signals. Exact checks vary with the products and fields present.

Does FeedScore connect to Merchant Center?+

No. The one-time version analyzes a public feed URL and does not request access to your Google account.

Can I check a feed before uploading it?+

Yes. That is the main use case: review the source feed, fix systemic issues and then upload or schedule it in Merchant Center.

METHODOLOGY & SOURCES

Built around documented feed requirements

Our public guidance is checked against first-party documentation. FeedScore adds independent data-quality checks and does not represent a platform approval decision.
