    Why External Traffic Matters

    Amazon's algorithm rewards products that generate sales from external sources. The Brand Referral Bonus program provides approximately 10% back on externally-driven sales, making external traffic campaigns more economically viable than ever.

    Google Ads for Amazon

    Running Google Search and Shopping ads that direct to your Amazon listings captures high-intent shoppers at the research stage. Use Amazon Attribution tags to track performance and qualify for the Brand Referral Bonus.
