Hi everyone. First I want to say this is a great community. Everyone is so helpful with one anothers stores.

My question is about finding my listings on the google search. When I type in cache flower pots, my listing comes up as the second one on there, which is awsome. But it's just a link to the catagory, not a picture of my item. My item is on like the 19th page! I noticed another ecrater store right under mine on the search, and when you click on theirs it takes you to a picture of their item. Did I do something wrong when listing it? I'm am just wondering how to make it so that it directs the customer to the page of my item, not just the ecrater catagory.

Thank you for any help on this.

Here's the difference

Google is pulling that directly from ecrater.com from the category --- note the URL

Google is pulling this one from a specific listing.
If you click on More results from www.ecrater.com You will then see all of them within ecrater.com
GOOGLE does not show every single listing for a specific item from the same site. Not sure how it decides which one to pick but the world wide web is too huge to show every single mention of cache flower pots from every single website.

NOW what you really want to find when you search cache flower pots
is a link to http://amysprettypottys.ecrater.com/category.php?cid=184787
That's something you need to work on and will take time to happen.

Okay, so how do I do this? Can I submit it personally, or will google just pick it up automatically? I thought it said I do not need to submit to google.

You need to submit your store URL. ecrater.com submits the ecrater listings.
