What is Amazon Stores Insights? Amazon Stores Insights Review, Features

Amazon Stores Insights is a new feature launched by Amazon in March 2018 that provides sellers with daily and overall store traffic performance analysis by tracking traffic sources and source pages.

About Amazon Stores Insights

The traffic of Amazon Store Insights comes from Amazon's natural search traffic, that is, if the store ranking of Amazon sellers is high, the statistical data may be high. Amazon Store Insights may also look at the search ads in the title. When Amazon sellers launch new products in their stores, or when the store sales are sluggish, Amazon sellers can advertise and check Amazon's new feature Amazon Store Insights to see if it works. Then, Amazon sellers can use custom tags to determine whether the high number of page views to their stores is caused by the ranking of their own stores, or by advertising, so as to determine how to deploy the promotion of Amazon stores. However, for now, the data of Amazon's new feature Amazon Store Insights is not very complete, and some data cannot be enabled for the time being.

Q&A

Q: Why can’t some data on the analyzer panel be used?

A: Amazon says that they will gradually add more information about store performance over time, and some data may not be available during this period. Because unit and sales data are only available from December 25, 2017. Source tag data will only be broken down into individual tags when it meets Amazon's data count threshold. Amazon only provides a classification of 30 T op tags.

Q: How to calculate the sales quantity and sales amount of goods?

A: Amazon calculates the total product sales and sales based on platform data. They calculate the total sales generated by Amazon Store visitors within 14 days of their last visit.

So far, Amazon has two ways to calculate sales: 1. Direct sales: The sales or quantity of products directly sold can be seen on the store page, and this data can also be seen by buyers on the store page. 2. Brought by brand "halo": On the Amazon website, the sales and product sales quantity brought by the brand "halo", which is not visible to buyers on the store page.

Q: How are sales and sales volume attributed?

A: Amazon attributes a sale to the last source a customer visited before making a purchase. Amazon attributes all direct sales to the page containing the purchased product, and attributes brand "halo" sales to the last page a customer visited. Tip: Amazon displays sales data based on the customer's visit date, not the date the product was ordered.

Q: If sellers use Amazon advertising to attract traffic, can they see the store’s performance data in Campaign Management?

A: Any specific store metric data, such as page views and daily visits, can only be found in Stores Insights.

Q: Sellers use Amazon ads to drive traffic to their products, but the ad campaign report shows that the ad performance is different from that shown on Stores Insights. Why is that?

A: Stores Insight shows the impact of traffic sources on store page views and attributes these views. Regardless of whether customers visited your store, Amazon's advertising campaign reports will show the impact of the ad itself on customers who viewed the ad. These two reports reveal different insights into the seller's advertising performance, so the advertising performance shown in the reports may not match. For example, in an Amazon title search ad, a customer can click on the product image to jump to its detail page, or click on the brand logo to jump to the seller's store page. Regardless of where the customer clicks on the ad, the advertising campaign report will show the seller the performance of the ad; while Stores Insights will only consider the customer data that reaches the store page and tell the seller the effectiveness of the corresponding promotion channel.
