3) Improve keyword research
Product itemizing, or in simple terms “listing” is triggered by the quality of your keyword research on Amazon. While some users suggest that the importance of keyword research only acts useful when it comes to listing books or selling books on Amazon, but the reality is the algorithm used by Amazon for searching, is similar to that of Google, which means that you need to have a good research base while searching keywords which best describe your product to have the best listings on Amazon.
While keyword research plays an important role when it comes to achieving high sales and returns on investments (ROI), it is an uphill task to research the whole Amazon market place to look for the keywords which not only help achieve high rankings, but must also match your product portfolio.
4) Keep track of price trends
Holiday sales is simply a synonym of “increased competition”, while talking in reference to Amazon sellers. Price tracking is an important aspect of selling your product online. Try keeping an eye on the crests and troughs of price trends of related products and try to identify the underlying pattern. Markets change with the blink of an eye, therefore, it’s important to keep your eyes open to identify any eccentric price trends.
