Amazon jargon:

ASIN

ASIN stands for Amazon Standard Identification Number and is a 10-character that is generated automatically. It is an alphanumeric identifier that helps with product identification from the catalog. But if you are creating a new listing, your product will automatically be given a new unique ASIN.

Create a new listing detail page

If your product is not available for sale on Amazon.in, you will need to create a new listing, so that customers can find all the relevant information about it. When you list a product on Amazon.in, it automatically generates an ASIN (Amazon Standard Identification Number).

Here are some of the details required for a new listing:

Product listing detail page

1.

Title

200 characters max, capitalize the first letter of every word

2.

Images

500 x 500 pixels or 1,000 x 1,000 to increase listing quality as per Amazon Image Guidelines

3.

Variations

Such as different colors, scents, or sizes

4.

Bullet points

Short, descriptive sentences highlighting key features and benefits

5.

Featured offer (“Offer Display”)

The featured offer on a detail page. Customers can either click on “Add to Cart” or “Offer Display”

6.

Other offers

The same product sold by multiple sellers offering a different price, shipping options, etc.

7.

Description

Optimize using keywords to improve listing discoverability

Amazon jargon:

Featured Offer

Offer Display is a white box on the right side of the product detail page where customers can add products for purchase. If more than one seller offers a product, they may compete for the Featured Offer. Sellers must meet performance-based requirements to be eligible for Featured Offer placement. Using services like Fulfillment by Amazon , you can increase your chances of winning the Offer Display.
