Missing GTIN, brand, or MPN weakens Shopping ads.
Google Merchant Center often needs an identifier (GTIN/EAN/UPC, brand, or MPN) plus a large enough image and shipping weight. Products without that data do not advertise cleanly. ShopGaps does not build a feed and does not log into Merchant Center.
Store Audit — $149 Pro checks on-site — $49/year
Pro (shop zip 1.0.3) lists missing GTIN, brand, MPN, featured images under 500×500, and missing weight or dimensions. Variable parents are skipped where those fields live on variations. We do not invent barcodes.
What to do
- Run Catalog Audit Pro on the store, or send WooCommerce → Products → Export for a written Store Audit.
- Fill GTIN/brand from your own supplier sheet. Do not guess barcodes.
- Replace tiny featured images. Merchant Center expects at least 500×500 px.
