1.Keyword Optimization

As an Amazon seller, you must know the importance of keywords of your listings. This is the major index that runs your ads campaign on. Basically, sellers are able to turn on two basic campaign systems at the same time – Automatic and Manual.

In auto campaign, you can find the key terms which bring more traffic and orders to your product from the machine-selected key term list, you can test these terms in your manual campaign.

The manual campaign allows you to choose your key terms and match types. Be aware of the broad match. For most of the time, it is the way to find key terms for phrase match and exact match. Spend more budget on the last two match types rather than broad match.

Check your campaign reports ( Auto Campaign and Manual Campaign ) more frequently before the Prime Day. Note Down those terms which have most CTR or are in the trend of dramatic rising.

Furthermore, test some new terms that relate to the newest product trend. Negative keywords are also a useful tool to help you to save your budget with a more specific search result.
