One of our sites have got all its products indexed in Yahoo's product search. However, most of them are not showing up any pictures at all.

The pictures are all jpg with a high compression. I wonder whether anyone knows what is going on and how I can correct this.

You (may) need to:

  • upload your datafeed, including all the tabs. One of which is your image URL: [store.yahoo.com...]

  • for some unknown reason, it's also necessary to upload an img.zip containing those same images: [store.yahoo.com...]

  • unless they edited your listing prior to their switch to PFI, you may never get your image displayed as a free entry - only paid: [help.yahoo.com...]

    Thanks for the info. The problem is our listings are free at the moment and therefore could not be submitted through a datafeed.

    I tried to change some of our listings to paid listings but could not pay with my credit cards. Yahoo will only accept credit cards from banks whose AVS can be verified automatically. None of the banks in Hong Kong could be verified. I have contacted Yahoo several times about this but have not received a reply.
