Amazon Listing Checker: How to Audit Your Listing in Under 5 Minutes
How to use a free Amazon listing checker to find suppression issues, missing attributes, policy violations, and ranking problems before they cost you sales.
An Amazon listing checker audits your product listing for problems that suppress your visibility, reduce your conversion rate, or put your account at risk. Running one takes less than five minutes and often reveals issues sellers had no idea existed.
What a listing checker looks at
A complete Amazon listing check covers seven categories: images, title, bullet points, description and A+ Content, compliance, category and rank, and pricing.
Images: whether you have a main image and whether it meets Amazon's white background and minimum size requirements.
Title: character count, prohibited terms, and whether the title contains the primary keyword.
Bullet points: how many bullets you have, their length, and whether they cover the key product features buyers evaluate before purchasing.
Compliance: whether the listing contains prohibited phrases, HTML tags in disallowed fields, or category-specific violations.
Pricing: whether the current price is within Amazon's acceptable range and whether the listing has a Buy Box.
The issues that cause the most damage
Missing or non-compliant main image: a listing with no main image or an image that violates Amazon's requirements will be suppressed from search results. This is the single most impactful problem a listing checker can catch.
Title over 200 characters: Amazon truncates long titles and may suppress listings with titles that significantly exceed the limit for a given category.
Fewer than five bullet points: buyers use bullet points to evaluate whether a product meets their needs. Listings with two or three bullets convert significantly worse than listings with five.
How to interpret the audit results
Treat audit results in order of severity. A suppressed listing needs fixing before any optimization work matters. Once the listing is active, address missing required attributes next. Then optimize content for conversion.
When to run a listing audit
Run one before you launch any new product. Run one after any listing change. Run one monthly on your highest-revenue ASINs. Listing issues can appear without warning after Amazon updates its requirements for a category.
