                                    27. How do negative keywords work?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

                                    Negative keywords prevent ads from showing on irrelevant searches, improving efficiency and lowering wasted spend.<\/p>\n

                                    \n

                                    28. How many keywords should I use per campaign?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

                                    Best practice is 10\u201330 highly relevant keywords<\/strong> per ad group for better control and performance analysis.<\/p>\n

                                    29. Should I target competitors\u2019 brand names?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

                                    Yes, but carefully. Competitor targeting can increase visibility but often has higher CPCs and lower conversion rates.<\/p>\n

                                    \n

                                    30. What is product targeting?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

                                    Product targeting allows ads to appear on specific ASINs or product categories instead of keyword searches.<\/p>\n

                                    \n

                                    Bidding & Budgeting<\/strong><\/h2>\n

                                      32. What is a good starting bid?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

                                      A competitive starting bid is usually close to Amazon\u2019s suggested bid range, adjusted based on performance data.<\/p>\n

                                      \n

                                      33. What happens if my budget runs out?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

                                      Your ads stop showing until the daily budget resets or is increased.<\/p>\n

                                      \n

                                      34. Should budgets be adjusted daily?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

                                      Budgets should be reviewed weekly, not daily, to avoid reacting to short-term fluctuations.<\/p>\n

                                      \n

                                      35. Is higher bid always better?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

                                      No. Higher bids increase visibility but can reduce profitability if not aligned with conversion performance.<\/p>\n

                                      \n

                                      Performance Metrics<\/strong><\/h2>\n

                                      \n

                                      37. What is ROAS?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

                                      Return on Ad Spend (ROAS) is the inverse of ACoS, showing revenue earned per dollar spent.<\/p>\n

                                      \n

                                      38. What is a good ACoS?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

                                      A \u201cgood\u201d ACoS depends on margins, lifecycle stage, and goals. Break-even ACoS varies by product.<\/p>\n

                                        It is the process of moving converting search terms from auto campaigns into manual campaigns.<\/p>\n

                                        \n

                                        43. Should underperforming campaigns be paused?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

                                        44. Does listing quality affect ad performance?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

                                        Absolutely. Poor listings lead to low conversion rates and wasted ad spend.<\/p>\n
