Best practices
These best practices can help you go beyond the basic requirements to optimize your product data for performance.
- Match the manufacturer’s sizing of the product. If your product already has a size type on it, then submit the matching supported value.
- To represent products with two size types, submit two matching values. (For example, "big and tall" or "petite maternity".)
- Submit the size type whenever it’s relevant. If you don’t include a value for the size type attribute, we’ll use
regular(regular) as the default. If that’s not the right size type, then users could be misled, which could affect your sales. - Submit the size system attribute. To also explain which country’s sizing system your product uses, also submit the size system
[size_system]attribute. - Submit the size attribute. Along with the size type, make sure to submit the specific size of your product using the size
[size]attribute. - Submit the gender attribute. To help show your product in the right search results, also submit the gender
[gender]attribute.
