Key Takeaways
The Three-Stage Ranking System:
- Primary Ranking Events:
- Roughly 90% of ranking impact comes from core behaviours on Amazon.
- Key actions include searches leading to a product page, add-to-cart from a search click, and purchases from a search pathway.
- Garfield stresses avoiding variations that interrupt the ranking pathway.
- Keyword Cohorts:
- Leveraging keyword "families" (using Amazon’s Opportunity Explorer) helps products gain ranking bleed-over.
- Start ranking with smaller keywords, allowing spillover to higher competition terms.
- Territorial Influence:
- Minor ranking factors include BSR and inventory location, affecting regional rank. BSR reflects category sales ranking relative to competitors.
Conversion Events Beyond Sales
- Clicks, page visits, and add-to-cart actions all serve as ranking events, which Garfield calls “conversion events.”
- Focus on generating quality traffic to accumulate these events, which can boost rank without immediate sales.
PPC Strategy: Maximizing Click-Through Rate
- PPC placement relies on expected revenue from clicks, not relevance. Garfield explains that a history of clicks improves PPC placement probability.
Timing Event-Driven Ranking
- Garfield advises starting campaigns for seasonal events early to establish a low-cost rank before high-demand periods.
- For example, healthcare and weight loss products should begin ranking efforts before New Year’s resolutions in January.
