Hi Again Guys,
I just received some pretty terrible news which is going to cause me to put this blog on a semi-permanent hiatus. Once I get settled again (more than likely a few months) I will begin posting again as well as launching some of my Etsy Tools.
I hope you are all well in life!

Quick Update
Hi Everyone!
Sorry I have not been posting lately -- I have been very busy with new projects including but not limited to some tools I am designing that use Etsys API. I should still be able to answer questions through e-mail so feel free to ask away if you need help with anything.
Updates should resume to a few a week by the end of August.

Adding Product Types to Google Base Feeds
If you have not yet set-up Google Base you should start by reading this article.
You may have noticed that in your Google Base you get a warning that states "Warning: Missing recommended attribute: weight." The way Etsy has our RSS feeds set-up there is no way for this information to be included. You can however, go in and add these weights manually. Please note that your items will still appear in Google's Shopping searches with out doing this. Following these steps will just help your items to appear in relevant searches. If you decide to edit your items I recommend switching your uploads to monthly because after each upload happens all of your edits will be lost and you will have to re-enter them all by hand.
To add some attributes follow the instructions below:
1. Log into Google Base
2. Click "Active Items"
3. Click "Edit" next to the item you would like to add attributes to
4. Click any of the links under "Include additional details
for your item" on the right hand side
5. New boxes will appear, add the information for your product
6. Click "Publish" at the bottom of the page.
