I believe that many small partners have a clear understanding of products, promotion, content marketing and other aspects, and one of the most core elements is keywords. A carefully selected and continuously optimized keyword library can not only help you get better traffic, let your goods be found by more potential customers, but also improve conversion rates and achieve sales growth. This article will reveal the art and science of Amazon keyword selection for POD apparel industry partners, so that you have an advantage in the fierce market competition.
The power of keywords: The secret weapon to build a boom
Since the emergence of the search box, keywords have become the most important core element, which is a bridge connecting consumer demand and business supply. The correct selection and use of keywords can not only effectively improve product exposure, but also attract more accurate target customer groups. Next, we'll delve into how keyword optimization can drive your business growth.
Amazon keyword selection strategy: From theory to practice
Before you begin, it is important to understand the basic principles of keyword selection. This includes not only finding the right vocabulary, but also how to adapt to the product characteristics, target market and other factors. Here are a few key steps:
- Efficient word finding and optimized placement
Use professional tools and technical means to quickly identify high-potential keywords, and continuously optimize advertising effectiveness through methods such as A/B testing.
Words: Amazon will automatically recommend relevant keywords according to the user's search behavior and historical data, these suggestions can provide valuable reference for your keyword strategy, but we need to identify the role of these keywords, for example, when the system recommended keywords are relatively broad, it is not recommended to open automatic advertising immediately, we need to determine the promotion objectives and main words, At the same time, exclude whether the leftmost title appears to affect the background judgment of big words.
When the system recommended keywords are less relevant to the product itself, it is recommended to open manual keyword advertising, determine and correct the label, and then launch automatic advertising. In addition, ASIN title/Top Listings, Amazon web search box, search term (display volume share) report, brand analysis report, etc., can provide us with more keyword sources, especially keyword analysis of some popular products and competitors, which have been verified by the market. Often brings us more effective keywords.
- Use keywords with product features
Combine keywords with a product's unique selling point to ensure that the description is both accurate and engaging.
Emphasis: In general, different products, keyword selection will inevitably be different, and in the market, the vast majority of products can be divided into two categories, standard and non-standard products, the bid is often concentrated in the core words above, they have a unified standard, function, product homogeneity is serious, effective single keywords are also concentrated in a small number of keywords above, Competition is fierce, and non-standard products such as our POD clothing products, the traffic is more dispersed, the keywords of the order are no longer concentrated, but dispersed in different words, so that compared with the concentrated core words of the standard products, do “ Price ” Competition, non-standard products are more suitable for a wide range of words, the dispersion of long tail words, the use of product characteristics, drainage of a variety of keywords, and continuous optimization, so that the sales of products are increasing, is our small partners in the POD clothing industry need to do things seriously.
- Use keywords with site traffic
Users in different countries and regions have different search habits, so it is necessary to customize the selection of keywords according to the characteristics of each site.
Focus on: Generally speaking, even if two countries speak the same language (the United States and the United Kingdom), they are obviously different in word habits and search habits, which will inevitably lead to a difference in the choice of keywords, in addition, different countries on the same platform, the search volume of the same core word is also different. Specific analysis and attention should be carried out according to different national markets and platforms, and the same language should not be copied directly, which will make your cost higher and efficiency lower. This is why EZEJ Technology has always suggested that small partners must do localization, even if it is just the basic reason, only by understanding the local language habits and living habits. To judge from a more basic dimension, whether your product is what the other party wants, and if so, what selling points can be shown?
- How to judge the quality of keywords
Evaluate the performance of keywords by analyzing data indicators such as click-through rate and conversion rate, and eliminate poorly performing words in time.
Four dimensions: In general, we will judge the quality of a keyword from the four dimensions of keyword accuracy, volume, potential, and trend, of which high-precision keywords reflect the needs of users, can improve the conversion rate, and the volume represents the market of related products, especially the volume of core keywords, of course, While considering the market, we should also consider the degree of competition, so in terms of potential keywords, we need to choose the keywords with high demand and low competition, and at the same time, we should also dig out some of them according to the hot spots. Rise ” Trend keywords, abandon speed “ Decline ” In order to keep up with the heat and get the traffic of hot events or holidays, such as the Trump election and Christmas keywords.
- Amazon sites keyword features and play methods.
The American stations, the European stations and the Japanese stations have their own unique language environment and cultural background, so they need to adopt corresponding keyword strategies.
Focus on: Compared with the United States station, the search volume of the European station is relatively small, the competition is not low, it is recommended to put a large number of long-tail words, in order to obtain more traffic with high conversion rate, while the Japanese station also has a small search volume, but the competition is also small, you can consider putting core words, and through the core words to expand, to mine the words with a higher conversion rate. While getting more traffic, you can also increase conversion rates.
- Keyword selection and optimization in the apparel industry
For clothing products, seasonality, fashion trends and other factors have a huge impact on the choice of keywords, and it is necessary to do related optimization and promotion strategies based on specific products.
Focus on: All countries and nations often have traditional costumes, which will influence the choice of costumes of these countries and nations to a certain extent. In addition, historical reasons and religious and cultural inheritance also tend to make certain changes in the search habits and clothing choices of target groups, especially the factors that still affect them in modern times. One of the most striking examples is the Middle East, where robes, headscarves, veils and other clothing are still widely used.
