    Identifying Competitors on Amazon<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    First, you need to understand your competitors <\/a><\/strong>very well. For this below product listing, if we search with \u201cstring lights\u201d <\/strong>keyword we can find minimum 100\u2019s of products on Amazon search page. But are they all relevant to this product? The answer is no. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    There are tons of products that are not fully similar to your products. So you need an USP<\/strong> to rank your product correctly on Amazon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Here is the USP(Unique Selling Proposition) <\/strong>for the given product: Waterproof Sparkling String Lights <\/strong>which differentiate this product with other competitors. This keyword describes this product more accurately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    By searching on Amazon with this keyword, we picked the top 9 products that are showing organically on page one. As they are already ranked with that keyword phrase we can take them as our targeting keyword.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    You can use the H10  extension option for X Ray for Amazon Product Research and find the products in the page both organic and sponsored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Then collect the top 9 ASINs and put those in the cerebro of H10.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The first ASIN will be your ASIN and the rest will be the competitors you picked from X-ray. This will help you to get the keywords that are more relevant to your product. After that you click on Get Keywords. H10 will give you a bunch of keywords.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    There are some keywords that are totally generic and have less search volume. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Sometimes they are also irrelevant to your products. Ours is mains powered but we got some keywords that are solar powered . So we will ignore them and won\u2019t waste time tracking them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Here are some keywords that are relevant to our products so we will pick them and add them to the master list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Segment Keywords<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    You can pick all your USP from the product title and segment those keywords.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    We picked these 4 USPs <\/strong>for our product and generated keywords with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Now, What is the segment keyword? Segment keyword means categorizing keywords into different lists. Suppose for the above product we can lists of the below category:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Waterproof<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Sparkling <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Shatterproof<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Outdoor Indoor<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
      \"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
