A+ Content on Amazon: What it is, its benefits, and how to combine it with Amazon Ads to sell more.

Written by Paula Moreno | Apr 30, 2025 8:58:10 AM

In a world where attention spans are shorter than a TikTok video, standing out on marketplaces like Amazon, Walmart, or Mercado Libre is no longer optional. Brands compete for just a few seconds of a consumer's time—and in that window, they must build trust, explain their product, and ideally, close the sale. How can you achieve that without overwhelming your audience? That’s where A+ Content comes in.

Today, purchasing decisions often happen directly on the product detail page. If that page is dull, generic, or unclear, you're letting customers slip away without ever getting the chance to show them why your product is better. A+ Content transforms that space into an immersive, visually compelling, and trustworthy experience. It’s a key tool to capture attention, address doubts, and convince users to click "buy now."

What is A+ Content?

A+ Content (also known as Enhanced Brand Content) is the upgraded version of the standard product description. Instead of boring your potential customer with walls of text, you offer:

  • High-quality images

  • Comparative charts

  • Brand storytelling

  • Interactive visual modules

And yes, the goal is clear: persuade, delight, and sell.

📊 Why Amazon matters as a marketplace

Amazon is not just a sales channel—it’s the first destination for online product searches for millions of people. In 2023, it captured 37.6% of the U.S. e-commerce market, and nearly 70% of online users worldwide have made at least one purchase on Amazon. With over 300 million active accounts (many of them Prime), its reach is undeniable.

Key advantages of the Amazon ecosystem:

  • Centralized, optimized shopping experience (apps, filters, guarantees)

  • High consumer trust thanks to reviews, transparent policies, and fast shipping

  • Perfect for brands looking to expand to new markets, manage inventory better, or simply gain more visibility with less friction

📊 Key Benefits of A+ Content

1. Higher Conversion Rates

According to Amazon, A+ Content can boost conversion rates by 5% to 20%. Because nobody wants to buy blind.

2. Stronger Brand Identity

Ideal for brands that want to highlight their values, story, or unique positioning.

3. Fewer Returns

A+ Content clarifies expectations and use cases, reducing surprises post-purchase.

4. Enhanced Perceived Quality

A polished, visual layout instantly signals a higher product quality.

5. Improved Retention (and SEO too)

While A+ Content doesn’t directly influence search rankings, it boosts engagement metrics that do—like time on page.

📊 Amazon Ads + A+ Content: A winning combo

Investing in Amazon Ads boosts the performance of your A+ Content. It leads to:

  • Guaranteed visibility in competitive categories

  • Purchase-ready audiences in a transactional environment

  • Stronger organic performance via increased sales, conversions, and reviews

Amazon Ads revolves around three core formats:

  • Sponsored Products: Promotes specific listings in search results and product pages

  • Sponsored Brands: Top-banner ads with visuals, videos, and product carousels

  • Sponsored Display: Personalized banners both on and off Amazon (Twitch, apps, etc.)

The perfect pair: Amazon Ads + A+ Content

An optimized listing with A+ Content is the ultimate destination for any paid traffic. When someone clicks your ad, you need a product page that closes the deal. That’s exactly what A+ Content is built for.

Going beyond Amazon with Amazon DSP

For broader awareness and retargeting strategies, Amazon DSP lets you reach users inside and outside the Amazon ecosystem via formats like:

  • Streaming TV (Prime Video, Fire TV)

  • Audio (Audible, Amazon Music)

  • Dynamic Display

  • Online Video (in-stream and out-stream)

With segmentation based on interests, purchase history, or behavior, you can build a full-funnel conversion strategy—from inspiration to repeat purchase.
