Default shopping.com

we have been with them for awhile before the $700.00 fee now required. the only issue i had with them was when i sent the feed , they did not categorize it correctly on their end.
i was going back and forth with them about this and finally received the answer below..

We made some changes on our end which might have improved a bit of your categorization. However please ensure that you provide detailed product names and descriptions within your feed file. Below are some feed optimization tips we can offer you:

*Promotional Text
Take advantage of the Stock Description field in the data feed and include promotional text for structured/hard products (e.g. “Free Shipping, Arrives on Time for Christmas, Ships in 24 Hrs”).

*Correct MPN/UPC codes
Shopping.com maps products by MPN/UPC codes when available. Make sure the correct codes are in your feed and refrain from using internal codes.
NOTE: MPNs can be found on site by clicking on the “Product details” link from a product page.

*Use our attributes
A common mistake most merchants make is not including common search terms (or attributes) in the product names and descriptions. Product names should follow a structure of “Brand Adjective Adjective Noun” and include our attributes in the product description. Promotional text in the description reduces relevancy!
TIP: suggested attributes can be found on the left hand navigation after performing a search on Shopping.com.
