In the ever-evolving world of online content, it\u2019s easy for complacent brands to be left in the dust. Recently, Amazon made enhanced content available to an expanded group of third-party sellers.<\/p>\n

Enhanced content used to be exclusive to vendors. As the competition around content expands, it\u2019s more important than ever for Amazon Vendors to come up with smart strategies for optimizing product page content. What can forward-thinking brands do to stand out?<\/p>\n

Staying Competitive\u00a0with Content<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Starting in 2015, Amazon began to make forms of enhanced content available to certain types of sellers<\/a>. Most recently, brand registered sellers gained access to Enhanced Brand Content (EBC). It’s important to point out that the Enhanced Brand Content offered via Seller Central is different than Amazon A+ content available through Vendor Central, offering fewer and less sophisticated design modules.<\/p>\n

Still, the change has led some Amazon vendors to wonder how they can differentiate themselves from third-party sellers.<\/p>\n

As a next step, we see many savvy brands turning to Amazon Marketing Services<\/a> to enhance their Amazon content strategy. Brands can incorporate keywords from AMS campaigns into essential and A+ content. Third party sellers don’t have the same access to AMS, which makes this a distinctive advantage for Amazon Vendors.<\/p>\n

This dynamic approach to content keeps your enhanced A+ content fresh and relevent to shoppers. Content is not just content; it is a strategy. As messaging changes for your products or you launch new marketing campaigns, make sure you update the enhanced content to match.<\/p>\n

  4. Be aware of changes<\/strong>: Amazon is the fastest growing retailer in the world and is constantly changing with this growth. Keep an eye on what your competitors can and can\u2019t do on Amazon to make sure you have a competitive edge.
