Search results showing news instead of a product usually mean one of two things: Google is treating the query as informational (news/analysis) or the product pages on the site are not being seen as commercial, crawlable, and indexable. The thread already has good high-level pointers from , and ; the practical next step is to diagnose indexability and signal commercial intent on the product pages.

Immediate diagnostic checklist

  • Run a quick index check with the site: operator, for example site:example.com "children's mobile phones" to see whether the product pages are indexed and how they appear in snippets.
  • Inspect the product URL(s) in Search Console (URL Inspection) to confirm index status, last crawl, mobile rendering and any coverage issues. (Search Console: https://search.google.com/search-console/about)
  • Verify there is no robots blockage, meta noindex, or incorrect canonical pointing elsewhere (robots doc: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/advanced/robots/intro).

Concrete fixes to favor product results over news

  • Make each product page clearly transactional and unique: product name + SKU, full specs, price (with currency), shipping/returns, FAQs, genuine customer reviews and clear buy CTA. News pages lack those commercial signals.
  • Add Product/Offer/AggregateRating structured data (JSON-LD) so Google can identify the page as a sellable product (see Google’s product markup: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/appearance/structured-data/product and schema: https://schema.org/Product).
  • Ensure the product copy is crawlable (site-builder JS pitfalls can hide text), submit a sitemap (https://www.sitemaps.org/), and link to the product from category pages and the homepage with commercial anchor text.

Tools and next steps

Validate structured data with the Rich Results Test (https://search.google.com/test/rich-results), watch impressions/clicks in Search Console for the target query, and re-index after making changes. If the site URL had been posted (as asked), specific crawl or markup errors could be pointed out; absent that, the above diagnostic → fix → validate loop is the fastest route to get product pages visible for commercial queries.

Sorry don't quite get the question, are you saying whan you put your keyword or keyword phrase into google
your site is not showing?

Member Avatar for absvn19

Yes, sorry! fIf i put the key words in it comes up with something unrelated....... say i put "children's mobile phones" in, it doesn't come up with my product, it comes up with newspaper articles about children using mobile phones. I have put all these key words in the meta tag things. I have used a site builder.
