The launch of Google Shopping was considered to be a real game changer, and a big part of the reason why that is the case has to do with the fact that most users would be able to use the price tracking feature that came with this app that would show you upcoming discounts as well as cheaper versions of the product that you might be looking for. The main purpose of this feature is to encourage people to make purchases, and if they start doing this through the Google Shopping app then chances are that for the most part these users are going to become reliant on the app in question.
Google is now rolling out price insights too. These insights are going to use data mined from a lot of different online shops and outlets so that you can be told whether the price that you are being offered is low or high. This can help you make better decisions due to the reason that for the most part many online retailers try to drive up prices in an attempt to maximize profits and this can be harmful for the consumer since they would start to lose money with each purchase that they eventually end up making.
These insights will be offered in a new section in Google Shopping, one that will be called “typical prices across the web”. Helping consumers stay more informed can lead to them never wasting their money no matter what an unscrupulous online shop tries to do. The less money that is wasted, the more likely it will be that companies will have to simply rely on quality products instead of pulling the wool over customers’ eyes. This can boost competition and can also be great for the economy as a whole.
