Google Base is developed by Google with the idea to be a big concurrent for eBay. Google Base is another new tool from Google Industry. Anyone can sign up, post articles and products for free. Everyone can publish his products and wait to get some customer. I wished it would be so easy that any dummy could use it too. I can imagine you would go back to eBay if you cannot find out how it works.

There are two different strategies:

1.     You want to sell your articles or

2.     You would like to have better result for your firm by Google

If you want to get rid of your products you should go to eBay and sell them in max 7 days. Every second person is talking about eBay how he sold or found his article. Nobody would tell you go to the Google Base to get good and cheap stuff.

Second if you want to get a better page ranking by Google, you should sign up by Google Base. Also, once listed on Google Base, it is put inside their directory to be viewed by all Google search engine users. But if they buy your products from you after they found you by Google it is written in the sky. If you want only better results on the shopping engines, try optimizing your feed - it’s no longer good enough to just post all your products and expect your listings to be found.

I am not a negative person. I see everything positive in my life. But something should be changed by Google Base. I am a Google fan and I hope they would find it out. You cannot write only good things about what you are seeing. You should find out the negative sides too. You can never have a perfect product if you push bad things on side and close your eyes.
