With 9.7 million Amazon sellers worldwide, it’s fair to say that competition is rife. Now, more than ever, marketing products to stand out is paramount, and the premium A+ content feature is one way to give sellers that edge. Say goodbye to basic aesthetics and say hello to Amazon’s new strategic content tool that gives storefronts an eye-catching boost, increasing the chance of sales. Sounds good, right?
Before we tell you all about this advantageous feature, it’s only right that we first give you a quick introduction to standard A+. Simply put, basic A+ content is great. It’s free, simple to use, and allows a lot of space and flexibility to share a product’s story, not just its appearance. A+ content is available to brand-registered sellers and vendors, as well as titles, bullet points, and product descriptions.
Taking A+ content one step further, some sellers have access to Amazon’s premium A+ content feature that is also referred to as A++. It is professional content available to high-performing, registered brands via Vendor Central and offers upgraded modules that incorporate more interactivity and take up the full width of a screen.
For a more enhanced user experience, the premium A+ content feature is a great tool, with participating brands having seen sales increase up to 20%. Premium A+ content fills the detail page with even more interactive options to lure potential customers. In addition to the 12 basic A+ content types, premium A+ offers 16 additional visually appealing modules to choose from. Some noteworthy features of premium A+ are:
As seen above, premium A+ offers a plethora of content features to choose from. Amazon A++ increases the total number of modules brands can use (from seven to eight, up to 1464px wide) and expands usable page space to the entire width of the screen for a sophisticated and modern feel. This means that through use of imagery and video, a brand relies less on text content because of premium’s strict character limit. If you have a product that requires a detailed explanation, you may want to stick with basic A+.
It is important to note that although A++ seems like an attractive option, the reality is that this is only the case for some businesses. Read the step by step below to find out how your brand can utilise premium A+ for free.
Regardless of whether you make use of basic or premium A+, it is imperative that your product is presented correctly to produce effective A+ content. Remember, standard A+ content is better than poorly executed A++ content.
