Google Shopping Feed Quality	Poor product feed quality leads to low Ad Rank, disapproved products and wasted spend on wrong queries.	Expert product feed optimisation covering titles, descriptions, GTINs and custom labels for maximum Shopping performance.
Arabic-First Search Behaviour	Riyadh shoppers predominantly search in Arabic. English-only product feeds miss the majority of shopping queries.	Arabic-first product feed optimisation with English secondary — standard for all Riyadh e-commerce campaigns.
Saudi VAT Compliance	Saudi Arabia's 15% VAT must be accurately reflected in product pricing, creating compliance requirements.	VAT-compliant product pricing and ad copy reviewed against Saudi e-commerce advertising standards.
