Questions on google search and GCU
Apr 29^th, 2010, 6:40pm

Not sure were I should put this post but will start here.

If I search for "mothers day cards" on google:
1st page - GCU only comes up under "shopping results for mothers day card"
then... when I click that, pages of mothers day cards come up under a heading at the top that says google products. There are many GCU cards on these pages.

On these pages to the right of each card is the price, where it is from, and stars with seller rating.
What is the seller rating? And... if it is related to the GCU site, how?

Second question
Are our key words on GCU scanned by google search engine?

Just trying to figure out how this all works.

Thanks,
Kati

Hi Kathleen,

The seller rating is for GCU as a whole. This rating comes from people that have purchased cards from our site and paid via Google Checkout. After you complete a transaction with Google Checkout you're given the option to rate the site.

Your keywords are picked up by Google. If you were to look at the source code for one of your cards, you would see that the keywords are included in the field called: meta name="keywords"
