How to Effectively Optimize Premium A+ Content

Market Research and Target Audience

Before designing Premium A+ Content, it is crucial to understand your target audience and what they are looking for. Market research and target audience analysis are the first steps to creating engaging and effective content.

  • Understand the Audience: Analyze customer data to understand their needs, preferences, and shopping behavior.
  • Identify USP (Unique Selling Proposition): Identify the unique strengths of the product that you want to emphasize in the Premium A+ Content.
  • Analyze Competitors: Explore how competitors are using Premium A+ Content and find ways to make your product stand out.

Choose High-Quality Images and Videos

Images and videos are the most important elements in Premium A+ Content. They not only make the product more attractive but also provide important information for customers.

  • High-Quality Images: Use high-resolution, clear, and professional images to showcase the product from different angles.
  • Engaging Short Videos: Videos can be used to explain product features, provide usage instructions, or tell the brand's story.
  • 360-Degree Images: Provide a comprehensive view of the product from every angle, helping customers get a clearer look at the product.

 

Tips for Choosing Images and Videos

  • Optimize for Mobile: Ensure that images and videos display well on both mobile devices and desktops.
  • Use Good Lighting: Take photos in good lighting conditions to highlight important details of the product.
  • Select Appropriate Context: Place the product in a suitable context to help customers easily imagine how to use the product.

 

Example:

The Samsung brand uses 360-degree images and illustrative videos to showcase the unique features of electronic products, helping customers have a comprehensive and understandable view of the product.

 

Create Creative and Engaging Content

The textual content accompanying images and videos in Premium A+ Content needs to be engaging and creative. You need to convey your message clearly and attractively.

  • Focus on Product Benefits: Instead of just listing features, emphasize the practical benefits the product brings to customers.
  • Use Simple Language: Avoid using difficult technical terms; instead, use simple and understandable language.
  • Tell the Brand Story: Use the brand story to emotionally connect with customers, creating closeness and trust.
  • Use Bullet Points: Arrange important information in list form to easily attract customer attention.

 

Example:

LEGO successfully tells its brand story through Premium A+ Content, not only enhancing brand recognition but also creating an emotional connection with customers.

 

Consider how LEGO tells its brand story:

  • Brand History: LEGO started as a small family business and became a globally famous toy brand.
  • Design Philosophy: LEGO is not just plastic bricks but a tool for exploring creativity and imagination.
  • Special Products: Each LEGO set tells its own story, from movies to science fiction, stimulating children's imagination.

 

Add Interactive Elements

Interactive elements enhance the customer's experience when browsing the product page. These elements can include comparison tables, charts, and infographics.

  • Infographics and Charts: Present information visually and understandably, helping customers quickly compare and grasp product information.
  • Comparison Tables: Allow customers to easily compare different products in the same category, making smarter purchasing decisions.

 

Example:

Samsung uses infographics and charts to illustrate the differences between product versions, helping customers easily compare and choose the right product.

SEO (Search Engine Optimization) on Amazon is also an important part of optimizing Premium A+ Content. This helps your product appear higher in search results, increasing customer reach.

  • Use Appropriate Keywords: Research and use keywords suitable for the product to optimize content for Amazon's search engine.
  • Complete Product Descriptions: Provide detailed and complete product descriptions, including technical information and benefits.
  • Optimize Images: Name and tag images properly to improve searchability.

 

Example:

Amazon has a free keyword research tool called Amazon Brand Analytics, helping you search for suitable keywords and optimize your product to improve search rankings.

 

Track and Evaluate Effectiveness

Tracking and evaluating the effectiveness of Premium A+ Content is the final but equally important step. This helps you better understand how customers interact with the content and identify necessary improvements.

  • Data Analysis: Use analytical tools to track traffic, conversion rates, and customer viewing time.
  • A/B Testing: Conduct A/B tests to find the most effective content version.
  • Listen to Customer Feedback: Collect and analyze customer feedback to improve content and products.

 

Example:

Nike applied A/B Testing to check the effectiveness of different modules in Premium A+ Content, thereby optimizing the shopping experience and increasing the conversion rate.

 

How to Use Premium A+ Content

Premium A+ Content requires special access through a separate invitation and is not free. The usage fee usually ranges from $250,000 to $500,000 per year and will be negotiated between the Vendor Manager at Amazon and the brand. However, during a promotional period, you may receive free access to Premium A+ features for all registered ASINs of your brand. After the fee is announced, you can accept or decline.

 

Note: Recently, Premium A+ has become free for sellers in the US.

 

To be eligible for Premium A+ Content, there are some criteria you need to meet. Note that these requirements may vary depending on the country you sell and publish A+ content in:

  • You have published a Brand Story A+ for all ASINs in your product catalog. You can confirm this by going to the A+ Content Manager and searching to see if you have created and published a project. You will also see A+ Brand Story on your ASINs in the "From the Brand" fields on the detail page.
  • In the last 12 months, you have had at least 15 projects with approved A+ content. You can confirm this by going to the A+ Content Manager and checking the status of submitted projects and the most recent change date.

 

If you plan to use Premium A+ Content in the future, you need to prepare to access it by meeting the criteria set by Amazon. Specifically, you need to apply A+ Brand Story for all your ASINs in the A+ Content Manager.

 

At the beginning of each month, brand owners' eligibility to use Premium A+ Content will be reassessed. If you are eligible, this feature will be activated in the A+ Content Manager, and you will see an access notification panel, along with a link to create Premium A+ Content.
