Froogle Spider Programs?

Looking for software to submit data from site

[skishopmatt]

Hey everyone. Does anyone know of a program that will spider your website for the info Froogle needs (or download it) and create a feed for me? I'm willing to pay, I just don't have time to do this with 5000 items. If anyone has any brilliant ideas, let me know. Thanks so much!

Probably should have gone in Commercial Exchange but I stickied you nonetheless.

I've done some work with both PHP and ASP, to create a Froogle data file. It's not as hard as you might expect, if you have a database of products.

On a side note, I didn't see much traffic from the data feed. The feed does give you more "highlighted" listings, but Froogle.com just hasn't "made it" yet.

Instead, I would suggest marketing otherwise. I've seen 10 times the amount of traffic from something like a simple Ebay.com ad.

Cheers,
Jeff

Froogle is my number seven referrer. And it's FREE!

Just export your product database to a .csv file. Adjust it to meet Froorgle's criteria and FTP it.

It's pretty simple.
