Client Background
The client was an Amazon FBA private label brand selling kitchen accessories.
Despite having a high-quality product and strong customer reviews, the brand struggled with poor organic ranking on Amazon search results.
Their listing had been created internally without a structured Amazon listing SEO strategy.
Common issues included:
- incorrect keyword targeting
- weak product title structure
- poor product images
- missing listing attributes
- non-optimized A+ content
- low click-through rate
Because of these issues, the seller was forced to rely heavily on Amazon PPC advertising, resulting in very high TACoS.
The brand approached EcomRanker to solve three primary challenges:
- Improve Amazon product ranking
- Increase organic sales
- Reduce advertising dependency
Major Problems Identified
Our team conducted a complete Amazon listing audit.
We identified multiple critical issues.
Problem 1: Poor Amazon Listing SEO Structure
The product listing lacked a structured SEO framework.
Common mistakes included:
- keyword stuffing
- missing backend search terms
- weak bullet points
- poor product description formatting
The listing failed to target high-volume search queries like:
- kitchen storage organizer
- cabinet organizer
- pantry organizer container
Because of this, the listing had very low keyword indexing coverage.
Problem 2: Low Click-Through Rate (CTR)
The main product image failed to stand out in Amazon search results.
Problems included:
- poor lighting
- lack of contrast
- generic product positioning
CTR from search results was only 1.9%.
Top competitors were achieving 6–8% CTR.
Problem 3: Poor Conversion Rate
Even when customers clicked the listing, they were not converting.
Major issues included:
- generic product images
- no infographic images
- weak value proposition
- no comparison charts
Conversion rate remained below 8%.
Problem 4: Missing Listing Attributes
Amazon listing attributes play a major role in product discoverability.
We discovered missing attributes such as:
- product material
- storage capacity
- item dimensions
- product usage scenarios
These attributes help Amazon determine where the product should appear in search results.
Problem 5: Weak A+ Content
The seller had basic A+ content.
However it lacked:
- keyword-rich image alt text
- storytelling
- comparison modules
- brand positioning

Step 1: Advanced Amazon Keyword Research
Our team conducted deep keyword research using:

Example topics:

We redesigned the entire image set.

- Product dimensions visual

- Is this organizer suitable for small cabinets?
- Can the organizer be stacked?

FAQs help capture long-tail search intent.
