It seems like Amazon trucks are constantly rolling down the street and delivering branded boxes and envelopes at door-after-door. The critical question is: Is your product available to those customers?
Amazon is an essential piece of the puzzle for anyone looking to sell online. But with so much competition, it’s tough to stand out.
Luckily, Amazon has many tools at your disposal. One of those tools? Amazon A+ Content.
What is Amazon A+ Content?
Amazon A+ Content is essentially enhanced brand content. It allows you to provide amplified content to potential buyers using high-quality photos, enhanced product descriptions, HD videos, comparison charts, and an expanded FAQ to give buyers a more comprehensive understanding of your wares. .
Amazon A+ Content incorporates multimedia content, such as HD videos, hi-res photography, and white-label comparison charts of other products to tell your brand and product story in an enhanced way. Sellers can change the product descriptions of their Amazon Standard Identification Number (ASIN) by using rich text, video, and images.
Amazon A+ Content replaces the wall of text commonly found in the product details description with a visual brand and product story in the product listing. Pictures, graphs, and videos complement copy and informational FAQs. Because there are so many formats available, it’s easy to stand out with Amazon A+ Content.
All of this translates to more eyes on your products, more trust in your brand, and an enhanced online shopping experience for your customers. Amazon states that A+ content can help increase the overall sale of a product by up to 20%.
Basic vs. Premium
When it comes to choosing the right Amazon A+ Content service for your brand, you have two options: basic or premium.
- Basic (A+) content allows you to add visually compelling options in five modules on your product description page of up to 970px in width. Choose from 12 different content types to include. It’s mobile-friendly, so you can fill it with answers to common questions, elaborate on how to use your product, share your brand story, and distinguish your product from competitors.
- Premium (A++) takes things up a notch with even more interactive options. You can make your product page as visually appealing as possible. On top of the 12 basic content types, premium offers 16 additional modules to choose from and up to seven modules slots to put the content up to 1464px wide. It also provides other selling tools and gives vendors a chance to up the details on their product page.
You can also use Brand Story, which is a way to share your story, values, and mission across all product listings under “From the brand.” Your story can also drive traffic to your brand with links to your Amazon Brand Store and other products.

Research competitor listings and find out what keywords they’re using. Use keyword research tools like Helium 10 and Google Keyword Planner to find high-ranking keywords relevant to your products.
Once you’ve got a list of potential keywords, use your keyword research tools to check their search volume and ranking difficulty. Aim for keywords with high search volume and low difficulty—these are the gold nuggets to help your product soar to the top of search results.
Use high-quality product images and videos
Eye-catching visuals can make or break a potential customer’s interest in your product. That’s why it’s crucial to create high-quality product images and videos that will catch your customers’ attention and show off your product in the best light possible. So, let’s dive into some tips for creating Amazon product photos and videos that will pop!
Here are some tips for creating high-quality product images for your Amazon A+ Content:
- Use a high-quality camera: Choose a camera with at least 12 megapixels or higher to capture crisp and clear images.
- Consider the lighting: Make sure your product is well-lit and that the lighting is consistent throughout the images.

- Show the product from multiple angles: Include images that show the product from different angles to give customers a better sense of what they’re buying.
- Use props sparingly: Props can add context and interest to your images, but be sure to showcase the main focus, which is your product.
Writing product descriptions

- Inject some personality: Don’t be afraid to inject humor or personality into your product descriptions. It can help make your brand more relatable and memorable. For example, "Our coffee mug is the perfect size for a caffeine fix without making you feel like you’re going to sprout wings and fly away."
Here are some examples of product descriptions that effectively use these tips:
- "Introducing our ultra-soft, eco-friendly yoga mat. Made from recycled materials, it’s the perfect way to care for the environment while you care for yourself. With its non-slip surface and lightweight design, this mat will take your practice to the next level."
