Product Title and Description of your Amazon product feed

But that doesn’t mean that you should just leave out the keyword optimisation part. You may want to rank in other search engines for your product like google itself unless you’re sending your data feeds to the google merchant centre as well. For this, you can integrate the keywords in the long product description.
The character limit of product title for different product categories are also different. Make sure to check those and use the optimal characters, not forgetting to add the ranking and conversion factors in your product title where possible.
One consideration regarding the product description is about selling products from other manufacturers. You should customise the original product description without failing. Imagine how many sellers have been selling the same product with the same description before you. You can’t beat their rankings.
Next key consideration is that make your product description answer all the queries. This is one important aspect of copywriting. If your prospective customer doesn’t find the information searching for, they’re more likely to hit on the back button.

For sellers who have multiple SKUs listed in Amazon, you can also benefit from the Amazon Automatic Pricing (which is still in beta). With this you can define the rules for pricing of your products which is a promising way to increase your sales.
Another point that you can’t fail to analyse is the competition on the product and similar products. For this you can simply search on the amazon and other comparison shopping engines. The lower price you have on amazon, higher the selling potential your product has.
