As we discussed above, adding metadata is useful and gives you the flexibility to add a significant amount of data to a product (post) that isn’t native to WooCommerce, but you may find useful in your products, and for your Google Listing.
With that said, metadata can get a bit overwhelming because this is where many themes & plugins store their data. For example, Yoast, a popular SEO plugin for WooCommerce uses metadata. This allows you to store custom data like your title tag, meta description, etc. But there’s a lot of metadata installed with the plugin that isn’t useful in Sproxi.
So imagine a WooCommerce install with 30 active plugins and a custom theme. While some of the metadata could be useful when creating or optimizing your Google Listings, much of it is not. Those of you familiar with WordPress know that even uninstalled plugins and themes often times leave metadata behind.
