A lot of sellers think Amazon randomly chooses who gets sales, But Amazon actually follows one rule:
Show the product customers are most likely to buy.
Here’s what Amazon looks at:
1. Sales Momentum
Products that sell consistently get pushed up. Slow sales = lower visibility.
2. Conversion Rate
If people click your listing but don’t buy, Amazon stops showing it. Good conversion? You move up.
3. Reviews & Ratings
Better reviews = more trust = more sales. Even a small rating boost can make a difference.
4. Keyword Relevancy
If your listing doesn’t match the search terms, Amazon simply won’t show it.
5. Stock Levels
Going out of stock kills your momentum fast.
6. Pricing
Too high or too low both hurt you. Competitive, stable pricing wins.
7. PPC (Ads)
Ads help Amazon “trust” your product. PPC sales boost your organic ranking.
Basically, If your listing sells well, stays relevant, converts, and remains in stock…Amazon will naturally give you more visibility (and sales).
