Broken Google Logo

I am hearing reports of issues with Google Merchant Center, specifically DNS issues, timeout issues, 404 issues and other crawl issues being reported by Merchant Center when there are no real issues.

You may see a spike in disapproved items in your Merchant Center report because of these issues that Google is saying is an issue but they don't appear to be real issues.

Here is a screenshot from Dennis Moons on Twitter:

So if you see these issues, you are not alone.

There is no word back from a Google rep on this issue yet and I am not seeing complaints in the Google Merchant Center Forums.

So hang tight. Hopefully, Google will fix these issues.

Forum discussion at Twitter.
