Important?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Similar Web, almost 26% of the traffic that comes into AMZN is from organic search (Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/website\/amazon.com\/#competitors\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Simi<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/website\/amazon.com\/#competitors\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">l<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/website\/amazon.com\/#competitors\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ar Web<\/a>). This means that people using search engines such as Google end up on AMZN after typing in product keywords. With an average of almost 2 billion visitors every month, this is a huge chunk of targeted traffic that goes into product listings.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a seller, your product listings need to get a slice of this pie. If you want to succeed in a competitive marketplace like AMZN, trying to eke out every advantage is a must. And the only way for you to do that is to know how to do this properly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is very important because search is the gateway for customers to find your listings. The process of finding products usually goes something like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Customer goes to Amazon with the intent to buy or do research on a product.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Customer types in a keyword related to the product he or she is looking for (ex: dog training leash)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Product listings that rank high and are optimized well for the keyword \u201cdog training leash\u201d will appear at the top of the search results.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Customer clicks on a product and (possibly) makes a purchase<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>This process is how customers look for products on the AMZN marketplace. This is why your product listing\u2019s organic search results are the bloodline of your e-commerce business. If your product listings are not indexed for the right keywords, you\u2019ll have difficulty getting traffic from customers.<\/p>\n\n\n<!-- Error, Advert is not available at this time due to schedule\/geolocation restrictions! -->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_The_Amazon_A9_Algorithm\"><\/span>What Is The Amazon A9 Algorithm?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to research, getting yourself familiar with the A9 algorithm is a must. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a competitive marketplace such as AMZN, not getting enough traffic means that your competitors are the ones taking it. It will affect the long-term profitability of your business if you can\u2019t get to page 1 of AMZN for at least 15\u201325 keywords. The Amazon A9 algorithm is the system responsible for determining which products show up in the first few pages of search results. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The A9 algorithm works just like Google&#8217;s search algorithm &#8211; it uses keywords and frequently used search terms to determine which products deserve to rank on the first page of search results. But the algorithm does not only rank products based on keywords, so you cannot stuff up your listings with random keywords. You have to consider the other factors that influence the algorithm&#8217;s choice of top-ranking products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Factors_That_Influence_the_A9_Algorithm\"><\/span>Factors That Influence the A9 Algorithm<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two major factors to consider when trying to get the A9 algorithm to favor you. The two factors are listed below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sales_Conversions\"><\/span>Sales Conversions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to rank well in terms of Amazon&#8217;s algorithm and for your business strategy to be successful overall, you must achieve a high sales conversion rate. The A9 algorithm selects the top-ranking products based on their existing sales conversion rates because the conversion rate is a pointer to the profit potential of the products. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other words, the algorithm considers products with high sales conversion rates because they have more potential to generate revenue. As a result, increasing your sales conversions will benefit both your company and increase visitors to your listings through better rankings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Keyword_Relevance\"><\/span>Keyword Relevance<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Only use keywords that are relevant to your products; focus on keywords that customers are likely to use when searching for your product. The algorithm ranks products based on the relevance of the keywords used in the listings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Without keywords, your listings cannot even be found. So, the algorithm needs to be sure that your listings are well-positioned for sales and only your keywords can serve as a pointer to that. So, you need to dedicate ample time to uncovering the right keywords for your listings. However, there are thousands of keyword options, so how do you choose the right ones for your listings? This is where Amazon keyword tools come in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What are the best Amazon keyword tools to use in 2024? Let&#8217;s take a look at some of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Are_the_Best_Amazon_Keyword_Tools_For_2024\"><\/span>What Are the Best Amazon Keyword Tools For 2024?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ahrefs\"><\/span>Ahrefs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"453\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot_4-1024x453.jpg\" alt=\"Ahrefs Dashboard Organic Keywords\" class=\"wp-image-24253\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot_4-1024x453.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot_4-300x133.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot_4-768x339.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot_4-150x66.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot_4-450x199.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot_4-1200x530.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot_4.jpg 1240w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This is one of the most popular keyword tools available online.

Without a strategy in place, the already overwhelming process of finding relevant, high-converting keywords can becom even more frustrating. So, below are a few strategies for keyword research. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Amazon_Keyword_Research_Strategies_For_Sellers\"><\/span>Amazon Keyword Research Strategies For Sellers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Keywords and content work differently on Amazon. When people type in keywords on Google, they are looking for information. The intent to buy is not there yet. Instead, they are looking for more information to help convince them to make a purchase.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When someone types a keyword on Amazon, the intent to buy is already there. The customers have already decided what they want to buy. The only thing left to do is find the seller who can provide what they are looking for.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is also essential to note that when it comes to AMZN search engine optimization, frequency doesn\u2019t add much value. Therefore, repeating keywords and inserting them multiple times within the title or content of your product listing isn\u2019t going to send a stronger signal to AMZN\u2019s organic ranking algorithm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since AMZN is an e-commerce marketplace, other factors that play into consideration when it comes to organic rankings include the number of reviews, sales, average star ratings, fulfillment time, and so much more. The best keywords to incorporate these into the equation (ex: adding \u201cbestselling\u201d in your product keywords such as \u201cbestselling dog beds\u201d)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Still, there are tried and tested strategies that all sellers can use for their listings. Below are some of these research techniques that you can apply when creating a keyword database.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Use_Expanded_Keyword_Phrases\"><\/span>Use Expanded Keyword Phrases<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As we have mentioned before, people go over to Amazon with the intent to buy. Thus, using expanded keyword phrases that include buyer keywords is one of the first strategies that you should apply when it comes to your research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, how do you find expanded phrases? Simple. Just think about how customers might find your products if they forget your product or brand name. You can use words that describe your products&#8217; look, color, physical appearance, or texture.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, \u201cred dog chew toy\u201d is an expanded keyword phrase to describe Kong, a dog teething toy. If the customer forgets that the product name is \u201cKong\u201d, the keyword \u201cred dog chew toy\u201d is a great keyword phrase that will also display the same product in the AMZN search results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/VnuWTfag-36oD9qQX5qzf6Vty8CkK1gXsJ27Jrrm7YpHI9gATB4ocuIJxK0LjBTHs_fSE3fmy32IZ02WAgcvYaVoJ7kXBLYhquI2QVfREmRb7QB5Nj6A6K95RU3YxXRYiJMv2c_9\" alt=\"amazon keyword research\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reverse-engineer_Your_Competitors_Keywords\"><\/span>Reverse-engineer Your Competitor\u2019s Keywords<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is another effective Keyword research strategy that you can use to find the best Amazon keywords. If your competitors already have a database of keywords that work well for them, why don\u2019t you use these keywords too? Your competitors are making sales because they are doing something right. If this means they are using keywords already converting well for them, the smart thing to do would be to emulate their keyword list.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So how do you do this? The answer is to use a keyword tool that can carry out a Reverse-ASIN lookup. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/reverse-asin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Zonbase\u2019s Reverse ASIN tool<\/strong><\/a> is one of the best software in the market today that can do this task. With the Reverse ASIN tool, you can spy on your competitor\u2019s keyword strategy and beat them at their own game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To use the Zonbase Reverse ASIN tool, all you have to do is enter the ASIN or product URL of the competitor product you want to analyze. Below is an example of what a simple search would normally look like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/c2t-iJ0Iic4LU-COA8RVHFUdmpcRn_yByzrXzSy-6aSN3e4DTaa_RJvAgnBiARlv_KHlFQJDynogmvigXbK_IGMkCjBV42Cv5W4mqqe8vlJ4uO2RWGfOvIr7sVnMtNsY-K0eg0aq\" alt=\"analyze amazon keywords\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As soon as you click \u201cAnalyze\u201d, the Reverse ASIN tool will display a list of keywords for which the ASIN or Url you entered is currently ranking. The information displayed will also include the current rank of the keyword, the search volume per month, and the Smart Score.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A higher Smart Score means that the keyword listed is a good choice. You should aim to find as many as possible with a high Smart Score.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/the-sellers-guide-to-amazon-asin-what-it-is-and-how-it-works\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>AMZN Seller Guide To ASIN<\/em>&nbsp;<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"703\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Reverse-ASIN-tool-1-1024x703.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18824\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Reverse-ASIN-tool-1-1024x703.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Reverse-ASIN-tool-1-300x206.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Reverse-ASIN-tool-1-768x528.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Reverse-ASIN-tool-1-150x103.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Reverse-ASIN-tool-1-450x309.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Reverse-ASIN-tool-1.jpg 1182w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you have all the keyword data you need, you can build your list of profitable keywords. And since these are all from your competitors, you can be confident that these will work well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Use_the_Amazon_Keyword_Suggestions\"><\/span>Use the Amazon Keyword Suggestions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most underrated (and often overlooked) strategies is using keyword suggestions. Frankly, this is something that most sellers should utilize because it is so easy to do. More importantly, aside from being free, this strategy leverages AMZN\u2019s keyword database to your advantage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you go to AMZN, and you type a keyword on the search bar, have you ever noticed the \u201csuggestions\u201d displayed? These suggestions aren\u2019t just a bunch of random keywords that AMZN decided to throw in your way.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AMZN suggests them because these keywords are what customers use to buy products. This means that AMZN is already giving you a list of keywords proven to work well. And it\u2019s all for free too. How cool is that?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/wkdRlY0cPnR1Yx-NJUnTxVLkbsH_vyRbBknxuTdp2Gr-U5yFINY2eB0FYlpZtAZaoVAr1Ueu06eGD7Er0pTQs4Job_3mginv9c4Oa2qYORxSBOzHbRsrB5aIrnmn0hRCxWGjyJu5\" alt=\"amazon suggestions\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The advantage of using this strategy, aside from being free, is that the keywords come straight from AMZN itself. You are using AMZN\u2019s database of working keywords to build your list, which is amazing in itself.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the disadvantage is that you have to do all of this manually. If you are working with many products and you don\u2019t have lots of time, this strategy is difficult to pull off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Use_Buyer_Keywords\"><\/span>Use Buyer Keywords<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As mentioned earlier, AMZN is an e-commerce marketplace. When people visit this website, they are not just looking for information. More often than not, people come to AMZN when they already have the intention to buy. Thus, the best Amazon keywords are the ones that integrate buyer keywords into the mix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So what are buyer keywords? These often include descriptive words about the product a customer is interested in. For example, instead of \u201cdog bed\u201d, the keyword \u201ccheap\u201d or \u201cdiscounted\u201d dog bed is a better keyword to optimize for.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When doing research, you should try to add some of these buyer keywords into the mix. They will come in handy when it comes to attracting people who are ready to buy.<\/p>\n\n\n<!-- Error, Advert is not available at this time due to schedule\/geolocation restrictions! -->\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Look_at_the_keywords_you_are_currently_ranking_for_on_Google\"><\/span>Look at the keywords you are currently ranking for on Google<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Google and its search engine algorithm are one of the smartest, if not the best, in the world. Its machine-learning capabilities and ability to connect the meaning behind words are unparalleled. Google\u2019s bots can identify what an article is all about just by scanning a few semantic keywords and sentences. Thus, it would help if you took advantage of this by using Google as your keyword tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How? Simple. Just look for the keywords that you are currently ranking for on Google. If you have a website for your product, you can log on to Google Analytics. Within Google Analytics, you\u2019ll see a list of all of them that are currently bringing in traffic to your website.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With this information, you can make a database that people use to find your products. You can then apply these keywords to your AMZN store listings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"\ud83d\ude0d GET YOUR AMAZON KEYWORDS TO PAGE 1 USING HOW TO RANK AMAZON FBA THREE SIMPLE HACKS!\" width=\"788\" height=\"443\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Ok5k0lt_Abs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Use_Amazon_Keyword_Research_Tools\"><\/span>Use Amazon Keyword Research Tools<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the best strategies for Amazon keyword research is using third-party software and tools. Doing keyword research can be boring, repetitive, and tiring. It can be daunting and time-consuming, especially if you do it manually.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is also a chance you\u2019ll miss some of the most effective keywords due to human error. If you don\u2019t have the right software or tool that can do the job for you, keyword research can be difficult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of all the keyword tools listed above, ZonBase is the one that we recommend for doing efficient Amazon keyword research. With Zonbase\u2019s Keyword tools, you can easily create a database of KWs that you can use for SEO and PPC campaigns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Related<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/zonbase-best-amazon-keyword-tool\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Zonbase: Best Amazon Keyword Tool<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To use the Zonbase Keyword tool, just enter your seed keyword in the search bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/gdPRfZo24fu-tBrqmAvxnCs3GI3-7-pL4MXqiFoEmkId8_4-zp9WPvZJBk4AIqgaTRt07cG7DExIAX9FrNyMhNoe-bm5q47hb78-3vVNNWCVYc5CGXqKGB2m8JYfJsCLKx_DMYh6\" alt=\"amazon keyword research tool\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Zonbase keyword tool will display the estimated search volume for your keyword and its Smart Score.
