News from Google
This holiday season, whether you're shopping for a new sweater for Fido, a Lego set for young builders, or that fancy camera you've been eyeing all year, Google Product Search can help you find what you're looking for at a great price. You can compare products and prices from merchants across the web, from popular retailers like Amazon and Best Buy to places to buy unique gifts like eBay and Etsy.Check out some of the recent improvements we've made to Google Product Search:
- Our new gallery view shows larger, higher-resolution images to help pick the style or model that is right for you. Check out some [digital cameras] or [sweater boots].
- Check the Reviews section of our product pages before you buy — we're now including review summaries to help you see what people are saying at a glance.
- We've recently integrated video product reviews from YouTube, which appear right on the product pages so you can get an in-depth look at items before you buy.
- If you want to see or purchase an item in person, click nearby stores to see a map of nearby store locations for that seller.
- Product Search works great on mobile phones, so you can compare prices, read reviews and even find coupons from the Local Business Center while you're shopping. You can also use the nifty barcode scanner on your phone to compare prices quickly and easily.
We hope these new features help you find the perfect gifts for your friends and family (and maybe even something nice for yourself) this holiday season.
Happy shopping!
