Using A+ Content to Improve Amazon Sales

Read in 2 mins

Selling on Amazon isn’t easy—even for the most amazing, useful and innovative products. With more than 600 million products competing for Amazon customers’ attention and dollars, brands must work extra hard to make their products stand out. A+ Content is one of the best ways to highlight your product’s unique selling points and give shoppers a reason to choose it over competitors.

What Is Amazon A+ Content?

A+ Content, sometimes referred to as Enhanced Brand Content, is an option Amazon offers to include more engaging and branded content in your product listing. A+ Content goes beyond basic bullets and images to help shoppers better understand your products and the benefits they offer. Listings with A+ Content can include features like video, comparison charts, images with interactive hotspots and more.

Why Include A+ Content in Your Listing?

  • Demand Attention: Customizing pages with visually appealing graphics and your brand story helps differentiate your brand and keep shoppers on your page.
  • Gain Conversions:Adding A+ content to your page listing can increase sales by up to 20%. 2
  • Answer Common Questions: A+ Content can include a Q&A content section, which helps shoppers make informed decisions and cuts down on returns.
  • Improve Rankings: Higher quality content that inspires more clicks, positive reviews and conversions has the potential to push products up in the search rankings.
  • Cross-Sell Products: Including a comparison chart introduces shoppers to other products they might also want to buy from you.
  • Tell a Consistent Story:A+ Content should look and feel like your website and/or retail environment, reinforcing your key messages.

The Difference Between Basic A+ Content and Premium A+ Content 

All A+ Content makes your product listing more flexible and customizable. Basic A+ Content allows your brand to add compelling text and images, technical specs and other elements. Most brands registered in the Amazon Brand Registry can use Basic A+ Content for free, but some product categories are not eligible. For brands that meet certain eligibility requirements, Premium A+ Content (A++) offers even more product module options, larger images and more creative freedom in your page design.
