Google tweaked its products search for holiday shopping. If you have already made the shopping list or even if you wait till the last minute this will be a good news. Do't forget to do the online research before you go shopping.
I personally do not like to shop online. Mainly because I like to check the product my self and decide whether I am going to pay the price. That dose not mean that I do all my research online and select the local shops that provide the best price for a product.
Google understand the online and offline shopping and help further bridge the gap. Google team introducing several new features to product search.
Local availability on Google Product Search - Google partnered with more than 70 retail brands—including national retailers like Best Buy and Williams-Sonoma, as well as software manufacturers like JDA, Epicor and Oracle—to connect shoppers searching online with local stores that have the items they’re are looking for in-stock.
Google Shopper 1.3 - Mobile shopping app that helps shoppers on the go.
“Popular products” and “aisles”: Google borrowed an idea from successful brick and mortar stores and in the coming weeks, we'll roll-out two features called “popular products” and “aisles” to help people learn about and discover new products.
Happy Shopping!
