Do I need your service to upload my Yahoo Store to Connexity?

No, Shopzilla has an option to import your the XML Export of your Yahoo Store automatically, but you may obtain better results by using our system.

Our system submits in Connexity's standard feed format. Connexity recommends this format because, "You can update & resubmit your listings through FTP as regularly as you like."

Furthermore, our system will allow you to correctly map the Manufacturer and UPC fields to your respective catalog fields. Regarding UPC codes, Connexity says, "Providing your product's UPC number is one of the single most effective techniques to ensure an optimal display of your product listings in our search results."
