Hello,
Our company has about 2500 products and are considering a data feed into Yahoo Shopping. (Currently there are about 5 of our products in Yahoo Shopping.)

If I submit a datafeed, is it worth paying per click? IThat could add up to a bunch of money quick. I was just wondering what other people have to say about it.

I have submitted a froogle feed, and don't seem to get a lot of clicks from that, but it helped immensely in our search position on Google.

Thanks for any info.

Conversion Ratios on Yahoo Shopping are traditionally VERY poor. I have a Yahoo Store and have been in shopping for years. Take it from me... conversion ratios are horrible. I can't figure out why they are so bad, but they are. I expect Yahoo to lower the PPC after Christmas and come back down to earth. THeir CPC should be more like dealtime's rates since Yahoo Shopping is really just a copy of dealtime now.

Does anybody know how yahoo shopping compare to equivalent services like dealtime, pricegrabber, and bizrate in terms of traffic and conversions? What kind of traffic can I expect from these shopping sites.

This might be a little off subject, but I just found some of our products on Yahoo Shopping. We didn't submit any products, how did they index them? Anyone know?
