Ways to find high search volume keywords using Amazon Search Term Report 

Organize your catalog campaign

At the initial stage of your keyword research procedure, you need to set up a general catalog campaign in Sponsored Products. Here you can begin deciding what terms your potential customers are using in their search to find your products.

The primary goal of Amazon keyword research campaign is to find search terms used by customers to find your stuff. You need to discover these words and bid on them. 

To find Search Term Report, you need to open Seller Central, and then go to advertising reports. Search Term Report provides Amazon merchants with data including click on rate, sales, impressions, etc. Moreover, it indicates the exact product SKU associated with a specific search term. These data are precious for launching an advertising campaign on Amazon. 

However, according to the recent Amazon update, the Search Term Report no longer identifies which product is associated with the search term. With this update, Amazon leaves a lot of advertisers in the dark.  

There is a right way out. You can structure your advertising campaign differently. You can build your campaign with structure with only one SKU per ad group. Using this strategy, you can attribute the success of the selected search term. 

Generate relevant search terms

To gain the most relevant and accurate data, you should run your campaign at least one weak. This time is enough to obtain educated keyword selection. Once you have gathered all required data, it is time to select high search volume Amazon keywords to build out in your manual advertising campaign. 

To narrow down your list, you need to analyze the obtained raw data and filter it through an excel sheet. This report will include the variety of different metrics. However, your particular attention should be paid to order numbers (the number of converted orders per SKU), product sales (the total number of product sales per search term), clicks (the total number of clicks per search term). 

Your particular attention should be paid to advanced keyword match types. Here you will find data about those keyword match types that allow merchants to decide which customer search terms their ads may be eligible to show against. Here sellers can exact particular match types. Be aware that broad match or high-volume Amazon keywords will give you the most traffic exposure, while the exact match phrases will restrict traffic to a more precise target audience. 

Three basic keyword match types include:

  • Broad match

It provides ads broad traffic exposure. You will match customer’s search term if it contains all keyword terms or their synonyms. It includes keywords or synonyms of any types. 

  • Phrase match

The user query should contain the exact phrase or sequence of words you target. This kind of match is more restrictive than broad and result in more relevant placements for your ad. 

  • Exact match

The consumer’s search term must exactly match your targeted keyword for the ad to be displayed. It may also match close variations of the exact term. 

Set up your manual Amazon campaign

Now you have a list of the TOP high-volume Amazon keywords that are highly relevant to your business. It means that you are ready to build a manual campaign by adding the SKU to bid on each keyword. 

You should start with at least 25 to 40 search terms. It is not reasonable to start with a large number of keywords as everything can run out of your control. Moreover, if you are using more than 50 keywords for your ad campaign, many of them will appear inefficient. 

You also don’t want too few search terms as you are not going to generate enough volume. So, as the experience shows, up to 40 search terms per one advertising campaign is more than enough.  

Moreover, you need to be aware that Amazon takes into account numerous aspects when running your Sponsored Product Ads. Even though the specific keyword may be relevant to your product, they are also looking at sales history, velocity, reviews, etc. 

Bidding based on ACoS

Advertising cost of sale is another metric you should take into account launching your Amazon advertising campaign. On this stage, you need to determine which search terms are driving clicks, what your cost of sale goals are what that acceptable threshold is.  

Most sellers prefer ACoS 20% to 25%. However, as a rule, this percent depends on the company's goal. 

Another metric you should consider developing your Amazon advertising campaign is an average cost per click for each keyword term. If the average CPC for your targeted keyword is high, you might want to lower this rank; and vice versa if you find a search term with a low ACoS, you may want to raise your bid to increase sales and traffic flow to your product page.
