Next, let’s learn about the dry goods related to Amazon advertising in 2022 with shopkeeper Wan !

Chapter 1

Advertising business trends

After six straight quarters of double-digit quarterly growth in ad sales, Amazon began reporting standalone revenue related to its ad serving business unit for the first time in February 2022 . In 2021 , the segment's revenue was $ 31.2 billion, up from $ 19.8 billion in 2020 and $ 12.6 billion in 2019 . And according to relevant forecasts, this data will continue to be in an upward trend.

After the epidemic, China took the lead in recovering, and more Chinese sellers chose Amazon to go overseas. According to Wanlihui data: In 2020 , the number of sellers who submitted Amazon's store opening through Wanlihui 's " Global Voyage Plan " increased by 300% compared with the previous year . From 2019 to 2021 , the number of sellers who use Wanlihui for cross-border payment will also show a continuous upward trend …

The increase in the number of sellers and the increased competition have also affected sellers’ advertising spending on Amazon to a certain extent. According to the WorldFirst seller survey data, in 2021 , procurement, logistics and advertising spending will account for almost 90% of Amazon sellers’ operating expenses.

Ad spend percentage

What is the percentage of Amazon's ad spend across major markets? Of the 18 markets measured by the JS E-Commerce Database , the U.S. has far more share of Amazon ad spend than any other country.

These advertising costs have been spent, and what kind of advertising is the most attractive to consumers? In this set of reports by JS , the data after surveying 1,000 American consumers is also given .

Consumers' click preferences are also positively correlated with Amazon's advertising spending data! Most of Amazon's ad spend goes to Sponsored Product Ads. Sponsored brand ads can now appear above, alongside, or within search results, increasing the odds of sellers earning higher RoAS . Below is the share of ad spend trends by Amazon Advertising product from 2018 to 2021 .

In 2021 , ASIN ad targeting is the most expensive for advertisers, and among all targeting types, the click cost is the lowest, but it is also easy to spend more. Below is the percentage of total ad spend by target / match type for 20 years, 21 years, and now 22 years up to date.

Advertising costs rise

Shopkeeper Wan always hears sellers say how much the advertising cost of his category has risen. Of course, all this is not the seller's illusion, it is proved by data ~

Let’s talk about the ten categories with the most intense competition at present according to JS data!

Health and Home

Home and Kitchen

Apparel, Shoes and Jewelry

Kitchen and Dining

Beauty and Personal Care

pet supplies

Office Supplies

Tools and Home Improvement

Sports and Outdoors

Sellers of products in these categories may clearly feel that advertising expenditures are higher than returns. For example , in 2021 , the health and home category will have more than twice as much advertising spending as the second-ranked home kitchen category, while the lowest advertising spending will include mobile phones and accessories, books and other categories.

In addition to category, ad spend is also affected by product price range.

According to an analysis of Amazon’s ad spend on more than 25,000 products in the JS e-commerce database, the largest share ( 46% ) of ad spend in 2021 will go to products priced between $ 11 and $ 33 . Within this range, spending is split evenly between products priced between $ 11 and $ 20 ( 23% ) and products priced between $ 21 and $ 30 ( 23% ), with the second largest share going to products $ 50 and above!

According to data from early 2022 , ad spend on products in the $ 21 to $30 and $ 30 to $ 40 price ranges has risen significantly, while the overall share of ad spend on products of $ 50 and above has declined. Below is the percentage of total ad spend that differentiated products.

" Wan shopkeeper warmly reminds that sellers can take seats according to the pricing range of their products, and optimizing Listing and advertising is the key. "
