For Amazon sellers, off-site promotion can not only help them expand customer acquisition channels, increase new customer traffic and sales, but also improve product listing rankings and increase website search traffic. In addition, through off-site promotion, you can also strengthen brand awareness and attract more potential customers. This article will introduce in detail the importance, implementation steps and precautions of Amazon off-site promotion.

1. The importance of off-site promotion

1. Solving competition within Amazon: Competition within Amazon is fierce, and it is difficult to stand out simply by relying on in-site advertising. Off-site promotion creates differentiated advantages for stores by introducing external traffic.
2. Expand exposure: Through off-site promotion, sellers can attract potential customers who do not frequently visit Amazon, thereby increasing product exposure.
3. Increase brand awareness: Using off-site promotion, sellers can publish brand content on social media, blogs, forums and other platforms to enhance brand awareness and recognition.
4. Attract new customers: Off-site promotion can help attract new potential customers and expand your customer base.

2. Implementation steps of off-site promotion

1. Determine promotion channels

Sellers should clearly define product positioning, summarize product features and selling points, and choose appropriate promotion channels based on product needs. The choice of promotion channels must be targeted and consistent with product positioning and promotion goals.

2. Find high-quality resources

After determining the promotion channel, look for high-quality resources on this channel and choose an off-site website that is suitable for your products and meets the requirements of the promotion platform.

3. Build a brand website

Create a brand website to showcase the products and brand story of your Amazon store. By optimizing website content and user experience, we can improve the conversion rate and guide users to the Amazon store to purchase.

4. Social media marketing

Use social media platforms, such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc., to establish brand image, publish attractive content, product displays and promotions, and guide users to the Amazon store to purchase.

5. Search engine promotion

Use search engine promotion channels, such as Google search, similar web search, etc., to obtain a large amount of traffic. Through strong targeting and pay-per-effect, cost reduction and comprehensive professional services are achieved.

3. Precautions for off-site promotion

1. Introduce the landing page first

Direct traffic to the landing page first, and then to the product details page to increase conversion rate.

2. Choose products suitable for off-site promotion

Products with high value, large items, unpopular products, and low repurchase rates have limited off-site promotion effects. Be careful in choosing products suitable for off-site promotion.

3. Off-site promotion is the introduction

Off-site promotion is not for one-time promotion, but for a significant increase in store sales after the end. It needs to be combined with on-site advertising to maintain store traffic and sales.

4. Don’t blindly increase prices

Price increases will hurt listings. Off-site promotions focus more on impulse consumption, so it is recommended to choose moderate discounts rather than blind price increases.

5. Multi-channel cooperation

Incorporate real-person evaluation during off-site promotion, increase product sales through different channels, and maintain high evaluation.

4. Sharing of specific operations for off-site promotion

1. Place ads

Sellers can place brand advertisements and text in different reviews, such as elance, fivver, etc.

2. Video traffic

Sellers can post videos of their products on various video websites, such as Vimeo, YouTube, etc.

3. Social platform

Social platform traffic is a relatively common one. For example, Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest are the most popular social platforms today.

4. Blog traffic

Many people do blog traffic. If the seller wants to pay, the effect may be faster, that is, the seller’s advertisement will be placed on other people’s blogs, and each time they will be charged based on clicks.

5. Lifehacker traffic

Lifehacker ranks more than 300 in the world, and the traffic is terrible, depending on whether the seller will use it.

6. Community forum traffic

Here is a little mention of community forum traffic, it is effective, but it is not very big, but it is better than nothing.

7. Coupon Station

For some brands, the Coupon site’s traffic drainage effect will be better.

8. Traffic to deal site

The traffic diversion effect of the Deal station is very good, and the traffic is really large, but the conversion rate is not that high. The key still depends on the seller’s own products.

5. How to do a good job in Amazon off-site promotion

1. Product selection and promotion strategy

Not all products are suitable for off-site promotion. For products with simple purchase decision paths, such as daily necessities, it may be more suitable to optimize and purchase traffic on the site.

2. Brand promotion strategy

Brand promotion requires long-term investment. Building brand influence and awareness through strategic investment will help gain sustained advantages in the market.

3. Create “Three Online Axes”

• Channel traffic system: Establish your own stores and multi-channel sales on different platforms to attract traffic from different channels and increase exposure and sales opportunities.
• Social Matrix System: Use social media to establish brand social accounts on different platforms, interact with potential customers, publish valuable content, and increase brand exposure saturation.
• Old customer system: Keep in touch with old customers, continue to provide value through email marketing, coupons, etc., to encourage old customers to purchase and recommend again.

Through the above strategies, sellers can carry out off-site promotion more effectively, increase sales and gain a competitive advantage in the fierce market competition.
