This amazing add-on allows you to showcase your product and store information to shoppers searching with Google. When shoppers click an ad that shows your product, they arrive at your storefront. This is a Google-hosted page for your store or your Run Free Platform landing page if your website meets the necessary requirements. Shoppers use the storefront to view availability, see in-store hours, get directions to your store(s), and more.
