What is an Amazon Storefront?
An Amazon Storefront is a small version of the Amazon website just for your brand. It allows consumers to shop your products away from the central Amazon store—and all of your competitors that reside there.
Your Amazon Storefront is completely customizable. You can showcase your best-selling products, tell your brand story and promote brand new products. Best of all, it’s completely free to use. That’s right, owning an Amazon Storefront won’t cost you a penny.
Why Should Your Business Create an Amazon Storefront?
Amazon Storefronts offer multiple benefits to small and medium-sized e-commerce businesses.
Increase Brand Awareness
Using an Amazon Storefront allows customers to learn more about your brand and see all your products in one place. There’s plenty of room for content and videos to give consumers a peek behind the scenes and understand what makes their brand tick.
Get an Amazon URL
An Amazon Storefront is the only way to get an Amazon.com/yourbrand domain name. This URL is an excellent way to advertise your store and direct consumers to your goods, especially if you don’t have a standalone e-commerce store.
Optimize Campaigns With Storefront Insights
Amazon’s Brand Analytics dashboard provides metrics and all the information you need to improve ad performance and boost page views.
Capitalize on Amazon’s Massive Traffic
It’s no secret Amazon is one of the most-visited websites in the world. There’s no point in small businesses trying to compete with Amazon directly. Instead, they should use Amazon Storefronts to leverage the site’s huge traffic volumes and send some their way.
Integrated Promotion
Getting the word out about your store is as important as having one in the first place. Amazon makes it easy to promote your store and your products through social sharing buttons and a range of promotional extensions.
