For this moment this system which will start to be used in Turkey is only available on U.S. and the price is on U.S. dollar. Google Shopping seems to achieve a major hit on U.S. online shopping market and it will outpace Facebook which didn't get the desired success on online shopping. Google Shopping will be a serious competitor to Pinterest but it must undergo a change from both media.

We are curious about what will happen when Google Shopping start to serve in Turkey. On our previous articles, we mentioned that every company should have their own web site according to the new law. This law will also be applied on shopping web sites. According to this matter, the effectiveness of Google Shopping in Turkey might be limited. Web sites which want to stand out from other e-commerce and online shopping web sites should contact to web design companies and should have a website before the law enter into force.
