Product data feeds or also known as shopping feeds are in the form of CSV, TXT, or XML files that contains information about your products. This type of feed is usually used in product marketing channels on platforms like Amazon, Google, and Facebook.
Why is product feeds vital to eCommerce marketers?
Shopping channels require the submission of product data to generate product feeds. Most eCommerce campaigns employ product feeds to gather product data from different places.
Shopping channels and marketplaces use the product data as a sign to know the campaign quality. Most of these channels check the data in your feed to compose decisions as to whether they would show your product on a search query.
Product feeds can either bring success or failure to the merchant’s e-commerce campaigns.
