Is it best to let bonanza pick my categories, or should i make my own from google?

I want to be as “findable” as possible and was wondering if I should change my booth categories according to Google search?

Your booth categories have no bearing on Google searches. Bonanza custom booth categories are simply there to help shoppers when browsing your booth. If you organize similar items into the same category, that is helpful to a buyer trying to find your items when you have LOTS of items for sale.

Personally, I prefer to manually place my items into my Bonanza booth categories instead of relying on the automatic method. I get more accurate placement that way. However, automatic placement does allow your items to be placed into more than one category. For example a PC computer game could be placed into both a video game category AND a computer software category simultaneously.

On the other hand, make sure that you put your items into the proper MAIN categories. Those categories are 99-100% the same as eBay main categories (it makes importing items from eBay a lot easier).
