I have migrated the store to my own hosting. do I need to submit google datafeed myself or will vendio so that automatically?
Regardless of the URL that you are using for your Vendio Store, we will send your Vendio Store items to Google for you. However, please distribute them to Google by going to "Channels" --> "Comparison Shopping" --> click the "Distribute Items" link --> select the items --> click "Distribute" again and follow the steps.

thanks. I jumped the gun and submitted to google datafeed and scheduled it for weekly upload. is that going to cause a problem? should I disable the scheduling?
is vendio going to distribute the feed continuously for me?
Please do disable the Google feed that you set up. Recent Google rule changes no longer allow you to send your Vendio Store items to Google. They must now be sent by Vendio through Vendio's Google account. If there are duplicate feeds with the same Store URL, it will likely cause both feeds to be disapproved by Google.

Nathan,
I thought that once I moved the store to my own hosting, the feeds needs to come from my site? I will remove the scheduled feed for now but just want to make sure.
That is correct, you will need to remove that feed of your own as they have to come from us due to the newer rules and if there is a duplicate URL found because of the two accounts they won't show your products.
Please allow a week for the items to appear in Google Product Search after they are distributed. You will only need to distribute each item once. So if you create a completely new item you will need to take the steps to distribute that item.
