The A+ Content Secret Amazon Doesn't Want You to Know
Hey, it's Yonah from Amazon Growth Lab.
Here's a question that might surprise you: Is your A+ Content actually hurting your conversion rate?
For 68% of the brands we audit, the answer is yes. And it's costing them thousands in lost sales every month.
The A+ Content Myth vs. Reality
The myth: Any A+ Content is better than none.
The reality: Poor A+ Content can actively reduce your conversion rate by up to 17%.
When we analyzed over 500 listings across different categories, we discovered something shocking. The standard "product features" modules that most brands use actually decreased conversion rates compared to having no A+ Content at all.
Why? Because they repeated information already in the bullets without adding value.
The A+ Content Formula That Works in 2025
Here's the exact A+ Content structure that increased our clients' conversion rates by an average of 9.4%:
Problem-Agitation-Solution: The first module should identify the customer's problem, agitate it slightly, then position your product as the solution.
Social Proof: The second module should showcase real customer testimonials with specific results (not generic "I love it" reviews).
Comparison Chart: The third module should compare your product to alternatives (including non-Amazon options), highlighting your advantages.
FAQ: The final module should address the top 3-5 objections that prevent purchases.
When we implemented this structure for a skincare brand, their conversion rate jumped from 5.2% to 11.8% in just 30 days.
The Quick Win You Can Implement Today
Look at your A+ Content and ask: "Does this answer questions my bullets don't?" If not, you're wasting valuable real estate.
Remember: A+ Content isn't about repeating your bullet points with pretty pictures. It's about addressing objections and building trust at the moment of decision.
