Question 1

What does the Shopify Headless Integration feature do?

Accepted Answer

AdNabu helps headless stores send the correct product URLs to Google Merchant Center, even when their websites use custom URLs from third-party tools.

Our app sends a standard Shopify URL for every headless store but customizes it to match the exact URL that customers see on the storefront. This ensures Google can properly find and approve the product for Shopping Ads. This gives Shopify merchants more flexibility and faster page loading speed.

Question 2

Will incorrect URLs really lead to product disapprovals on Google Shopping?

Accepted Answer

Yes, incorrect URLs can lead to product disapprovals on Google Shopping. A common error is not finding the landing page if the URL path does not match.

For example, the link you provide in your Google Merchant Center might not lead to the correct landing page for the product. The broken link leads to a ‘404 error’ or a blank page. Since Google Shopping cannot verify the product's authenticity, the product gets disapproved.

Google ensures that users who click ads or web pages are directed to functional, relevant pages. If the destination page is not working (i.e., it returns a 404 error), it might get disapproved because it leads to a broken link.

Question 3

Does the data I enter on the AdNabu app reflect on my Shopify store? What If I want it to?

Accepted Answer

Our app doesn't have the permissions to make edits directly in a merchant's Shopify store. While the app can sync data from the store, it cannot make any direct changes to the Shopify admin.

All customizations or optimizations made through the AdNabu app are applied only to the merchant's Google Merchant Center. If merchants want the same customizations reflected in their Shopify store, they will need to implement them manually on their end.

Question 4

What is the significance of maintaining specific URL formats for Google's algorithms?

Accepted Answer

Google's algorithm expects standardized URL formats for product listings to provide a consistent experience for users. Deviating from the standard format will result in product disapproval and affect product visibility.

Question 5

How does AdNabu ensure accurate product URLs are sent to Google Shopping from headless Shopify stores?

Accepted Answer

When you raise a ticket for a headless Shopify store, we ask you for input on the pattern for product URLs.

An expert from our team will then make changes to the URL based on the specifications provided, to generate accurate product URLs, which are transmitted to Google Shopping.

Since an expert from our team will be involved in the URL generation process, we can easily navigate third-party integrations as well.

Question 6

Does AdNabu guarantee no product disapprovals on Google Shopping?

Accepted Answer

While AdNabu helps reduce the risk of product disapprovals by sending accurate URLs, disapprovals can still occur due to various factors, such as incorrect product information or policy violations on Google Shopping.

Our goal is to generate clean, error-free product feeds. AdNabu automatically detects potential issues before data is sent to Google Merchant Center, helping you minimize disapproval as much as possible in Shopify headless commerce.

Question 7

Is AdNabu compatible with other third-party technologies besides Next.js for generating product URLs?

Accepted Answer

Yes, our app is compatible with different third-party frameworks such as Gatsby, Vue Storefront, Nuxt.js, and Angular Universal.

For static site deployment and hosting, you can utilize Netlify, Vercel, and AWS Amplify (AWS: Amazon Web Services). Our app is also compatible with Custom APIs/microservices and Content Management Systems (CMS).

Our app is compatible with any platform, as long as the integration does not rely on custom URL parameters. It must use standard Shopify URL parameters.

Question 8

How quickly can AdNabu resolve the URL integration issues between headless Shopify stores and Google Shopping?

Accepted Answer

Raise a ticket with our customer support team and we typically resolve URL integration issues within a day.
Though, please note that in some cases, timelines can vary based on your specific store configuration.
