# Facebook Product Feed Generator: Common Mistakes and Best Practices

Most problems with facebook Product Feed Generator aren't caused by not knowing what to do — they're caused by small, easy-to-miss mistakes that compound quietly over time. Here are the ones that come up most often.

Mistake 1: Reusing a Google Merchant feed verbatim without checking Meta's specific field requirements, which differ in several subtle but rejection-causing ways.

Mistake 2: Leaving `condition` off non-obvious items — Meta requires it even when a product is clearly new, and its absence blocks approval.

Mistake 3: Not linking the catalog to a Pixel or Conversions API, which limits how effectively Meta can optimize dynamic product ads even with a perfect feed.

The fix for most of these isn't more effort, it's a regular check. A few habits that prevent them from creeping back in:
- Set up catalog scheduled refreshes rather than manual re-uploads, so price and stock changes reflect within hours, not whenever someone remembers to re-upload.
- Test a small batch in Commerce Manager's diagnostics before pushing your full catalog live, especially after any format changes.

Worth reading alongside this: our guide to competitor product analysis, which covers the adjacent side of the same part of a technical SEO audit.
