How to Use Listing Quality Check for Amazon
Step 1: Add your listing
To evaluate a listing, enter the product’s URL or ASIN into the corresponding field.
Once you click “Check,” the tool will run a comprehensive report that identifies areas of improvement.
Step 2: Obtain your Listing Quality Score
The first thing to check in the report is your Listing Quality Score.
This metric grades the overall quality of a listing based on our optimization guidelines, Amazon’s requirements, and the official Style Guide:
- Perfect (9-10): Listing passes all checks, meets all Amazon requirements, complies with the Style Guide, and follows all optimization recommendations
- Good (8-8.9): Listing has some minor issues but overall performs well
- Decent (6-7.9): Listing content has a significant number of issues and should be optimized
- Poor (4-5.9): Listing has a lot of issues and requires considerable revision
- Bad (<4): Listing needs an urgent overhaul
Step 3: Deep dive into your report and spot issues
The report also shows you failed checks and how each of them is impacting the Listing Quality Score. To dismiss a failed check that you disagree with, click the corresponding “Disagree” button on the right side of the page.
Amazon Requirements tab highlights all the issues that can potentially lead to listing suppression, based on your listing’s compliance with Amazon’s requirements.
Amazon Style Guides tab provides extra tips, deriving from Amazon’s Style Guide, for perfecting your listing quality.
Best Practices tab gives additional ideas for improving the quality of your listing that are based on best practices and our research.
If you don’t want to go through each tab, select the All Checks tab to get an overview of all of the changes that you need to pay attention to.
Step 4: Focus on critical issues
All listing checks are divided into three types based on their importance:
- Critical: major issues that seriously affect listing performance and can lead to suspension
- Recommended: issues that should be sorted out for the best listing performance
- Optional: minor issues that have little impact on listing performance
To improve the quality of your listing as quickly as possible, it’s better to start with critical issues.
Please note: if you wish to make changes to your listings, you should go to your Amazon Seller Central account and modify the content there. Once it's done, you may want to re-run the audit.
Pro tip: Amazon requirements may change over time, so re-auditing listings on a regular basis can be good practice. Also, don’t forget to run re-audit each time you change something in your listings.
