Google recently implemented a policy that requires you to verify your store’s URL through Google (using Google Webmaster Tools). If you have not done this by now (deadline was May 18th), Google will deactivate your listings until you have completed the process.

We wrote a blog post over at SingleFeed.com that explains how to claim your website URL through Google.

Typically a merchant would be using their same Google account/login for their Google Merchant Center account and their Google Webmaster Tools account. If you have two different logins (one for each service) please follow the steps below.

Login to your existing Google Webmaster Tools account and select the domain you wish to verify. Click Add User and insert the email of your Google Merchant Center login and click continue. This should allow you to complete the remaining steps of the verification process.

Join SingleFeed next Wednesday for an informational Webinar in which we’ll walk through all the ways your Google Merchant Center feed can be used.
