What it usually looks like on a store

This shows up when products aren't linked from the homepage, collections are empty, or product pages only load with scripts that crawlers can't run.

What Google says

Google suspends accounts when the submitted website domain is determined to be parked, showing only ads and links, or when the page shoppers land on contains no products. Google asks you to point the domain at a server hosting your product pages, verify and claim the updated URL, and request a re-review.

How to fix it

Based on Google's help pages, in plain language:

1. Make sure the domain points to a server hosting your product pages with unique content, not ad listings and links.
2. If the domain expired, renew it with your registrar; if the site had a temporary outage, make sure it runs again.
3. Make sure the updated URL is verified and claimed, and re-upload the data source.
4. Submit a re-review request.

What to check on your website

These are the checks we run that relate to this issue. A problem in any of them can be enough on its own.

• Pages load for visitors: Your homepage and product pages answer with a working page (no errors, no password page, no login wall).
• No placeholder or template text: No lorem ipsum, default theme copy, sample products, "your store name" fields or coming-soon notices anywhere we looked.
• Product structured data: Each product page has valid Product markup (JSON-LD or microdata) with a name, image and offer.

Requesting a review

Google says that once technical fixes are live, a small ad edit or selecting Appeal starts a fresh crawl that usually finishes within 24 to 48 hours. Depending on the violation there may be extra verification steps and a limit on how many reviews can be requested.
