Binu Mathew founded LynkPIM and runs ITMarkerz Technologies Ltd., the company in Changanassery, Kerala that builds it. He leads the product himself: the data model, the connectors that publish to shops, marketplaces and feeds, and the free catalog tools on this site. His articles come out of that work: how to structure product data, how to map it to what Google, Shopify, WooCommerce and the marketplaces require, and how to keep it correct as a catalog grows.

What Binu has built

  • LynkPIM

    The PIM itself, with connectors for Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, Shopware, PrestaShop, BigCommerce, Amazon, bol.com, eBay, Google Merchant Center and product feeds.

  • Free catalog and feed tools

    Readiness assessment, ROI calculator, Google product category finder and feed checkers, free to use without an account.

  • LynkPIM Catalog Health Checker

    A free WooCommerce plugin on WordPress.org that scores a catalog and lists missing images, prices, SKUs and variation data.

  • DPP Readiness Checker

    A Chrome extension that checks a product page for the data an EU Digital Product Passport will need.

How these articles are checked

  • Platform rules (Google Merchant Center, Shopify, WooCommerce, marketplaces) are checked against the platform’s own documentation.
  • Google product categories and IDs are checked against Google’s published taxonomy file.
  • Facts about other PIM vendors come from the vendor’s own website and carry the date they were checked.
  • No statistic without a named source. Older articles are being brought up to this standard.
  • LynkPIM is my product. Where an article compares tools, it says so.
