Deep dives

Updates to Broad Targeting on Amazon Advertising Platform

Amazon has made updates to broad targeting on its advertising platform, including the inclusion of synonyms and variations. This means that broad targeting now includes words that are similar or have the same meaning as the target keyword. However, this change has affected the performance of campaigns relying heavily on broad targeting. To adapt, advertisers are shifting their focus to phrase and exact match targeting for better control over where their ads are delivered. While broad targeting still has a place for data gathering, it is recommended to use it as a catch-all approach with low bids.
