🎯 Search Term Success: Simple Tricks

Namaste Sellers!

Last week in this thread, we asked you to share your search term optimization tips. Today, we're excited to share some proven best practices with you.

Search terms are keywords that are used by search engines for matching between an ASIN and a query. Using the right search terms can help customers find your products when they’re searching for what to buy.

On the Amazon store, search terms mean terms that you enter into the Generic keyword field when you list or update an ASIN, which are indexed in the search engine for matching. Best practices for drafting and optimizing your search terms include:

  • Maintain the text length limit of search terms.
  • Make use of synonyms.
  • Use spelling variations, but don’t include common misspellings.
  • Include abbreviations.
  • Use all lowercase letters.
  • Avoid punctuation marks such as semicolons, colons, and dashes.
  • Separate words with spaces.
  • Avoid repetitions.
  • Avoid articles, prepositions, or other short words such as “a,” “an,” “and,” “by,” “for,” “of,” “the,” or “with.”
  • Use either singular or plural words.

To add search terms, follow these steps:

  • In the Inventory drop-down menu, select Manage All Inventory.
  • Click Edit next to the listed product.
  • Click the Product details tab and enter your keywords in the Generic keyword field.

🎯 Amazon’s Search Term “Success”: Tricks to Drain Sellers’ Wallets

Namaste Sellers!

Last week in this thread, we asked you to share your insights on Amazon’s mystery search algorithm. Today, we're excited to share some proven best practices with you—straight from our observations of how Amazon maximizes its own earnings!

Search terms are supposed to help match an ASIN with a query. However, no matter what keywords you add, Amazon ensures that your listings magically rank lower unless you pay for ads.

On the Amazon store, search terms mean terms that you enter into the Generic keyword field when you list or update an ASIN. These are indexed in Amazon’s algorithm for matching—unless of course, Amazon’s private labels decide they want your traffic. Best practices for drafting and optimizing your search terms include:

✔️ Maintain the text length limit of search terms (so Amazon can decide which ones to ignore).

✔️ Make use of synonyms (because Amazon loves making sure competitors rank on your keywords too).

✔️ Use spelling variations, but don’t include common misspellings (because somehow, Amazon itself ranks sponsored listings on these misspellings).

✔️ Include abbreviations (though Amazon’s system might still make your listing invisible).

✔️ Use all lowercase letters (it won’t make a difference, but hey, “best practices”).

✔️ Avoid punctuation marks (Amazon prefers all the confusion).

✔️ Separate words with spaces (this doesn’t guarantee indexing, but at least it looks clean).

✔️ Avoid repetitions (because Amazon’s system is already repeating your keywords for someone else’s benefit).

✔️ Avoid articles, prepositions, or short words such as “a,” “an,” “and” (unless, of course, Amazon’s private-label brands use them—then it works perfectly).

✔️ Use either singular or plural words (but don’t be surprised when irrelevant ASINs still outrank you).

To add search terms, follow these steps:

1️⃣ In the Inventory drop-down menu, select Manage All Inventory (but don’t manage to expect organic traffic).

2️⃣ Click Edit next to the listed product (so you can edit and re-edit forever, hoping it’ll work).

3️⃣ Click the Product details tab and enter your keywords in the Generic keyword field (where Amazon will pretend to consider them).

For more information, read the Use search terms effectively page, where Amazon will teach you how to run ads instead.

Now tell us, sellers: Which "optimizations" have actually helped your sales—without spending thousands on ads (maybe zero sales)? 💸😂

Drop your experiences below—let’s see if anyone actually cracked the ‘free visibility’ mystery !
