About
The dominant sponsored search advertising product on Amazon, capturing 72.5% of advertiser spend on the platform and consistently growing clicks and attributed sales quarter over quarter.
Amazon Sponsored Products is a paid advertising product that places ads alongside organic search results for related products across Amazon's platform. These ads appear on nearly every page of Amazon, including search results, product detail pages, and competitors' pages, making them a primary tool for sellers seeking to drive new traffic and grow revenue. Advertisers can run either automatically targeted campaigns, which are well-suited to those new to pay-per-click advertising, or manually targeted campaigns, which allow more precise keyword bidding and product targeting for more experienced practitioners. Sponsored Products commands the largest share of Amazon advertiser spend, capturing 72.5% of ad budgets on the platform, far ahead of Sponsored Display and Sponsored Brands. Sponsored Products clicks have grown by at least 19% for four consecutive quarters, with sales attributed to the format rising 18% in Q1, while some advertisers have been reallocating budget from Sponsored Brands to Sponsored Products in pursuit of stronger performance.
