Card class: Non-HeroCategory: Brand Analytics & Search

At a glance

For each search term that drives traffic to your products, which of your ASINs actually wins the sale. Built on Amazon Brand Analytics, this table ranks your ASINs by their conversion contribution for a given query, so you can see whether the right product is capturing the demand behind a keyword. It answers questions like “for the query that brings the most clicks, is my hero ASIN or a weaker variant getting the purchases?” and it is the bridge between search visibility and search-driven sales.
What it countsA per-query ranking of your ASINs by their share of conversions (purchases) for that search term, drawn from Amazon Brand Analytics Search Query Performance and related reports. Each row pairs a query with the ASINs converting on it and their relative rank.
Brand Registry requirementBrand Analytics data requires Brand Registry enrolment. If your brand is not registered, this card has limited or no data. See Brand Registry Coverage.
Why it mattersSearch visibility without conversion is wasted impressions. This card tells you whether the demand behind a keyword is being captured by your best product or leaking to a weaker listing (or to a competitor), which guides advertising, content, and variation strategy.
Click vs purchase shareBrand Analytics distinguishes the ASIN that gets the clicks from the ASIN that gets the purchases. A query where one ASIN gets the clicks but another converts signals a listing or pricing mismatch worth fixing.
Organic vs adThe card reflects conversion contribution at the query level. To separate paid from organic capture, pair with Organic vs Ad Sales Share.
GranularityAmazon’s Brand Analytics is aggregated and anonymised; figures are relative ranks and shares rather than exact per-buyer detail.
Reading the tableLook for queries where a high-traffic term converts on the wrong ASIN, or where your hero ASIN ranks below a variant. Those are the actionable rows.

Calculation

Calculated automatically from your Amazon Seller Central and Brand Analytics data. See the At a glance summary above for what the metric tracks and the worked example below for a typical reading.

Worked example

A coffee brand on Amazon US, Brand Registry enrolled, 30-day Brand Analytics period ending 01 May 26. All numbers illustrative.
QueryTop click-share ASINTop purchase-share ASINNotes
”ground coffee”House blend 1kgHouse blend 1kgAligned, hero ASIN wins both
”espresso beans”Espresso 250gEspresso 1kgClicks go to the small pack, purchases to the value pack
”decaf coffee”Decaf 500gCompetitor (not yours)Your ASIN gets clicks but loses the sale
”coffee gift set”Gift boxGift boxAligned
”single origin”Variety packSingle-origin EthiopiaWrong ASIN ranks for the query
Five things to notice:
  1. “espresso beans” is a packaging-mix story, not a problem. Clicks land on the 250g pack but purchases convert on the 1kg value pack. That is healthy: browsers click the cheap entry point and buy the better-value size. No action, but worth knowing for ad targeting.
  2. “decaf coffee” is a genuine leak. Your ASIN earns the clicks but a competitor captures the purchase. That points at price, reviews, or content losing the buyer after the click. This is the highest-value row to investigate, you are paying (in ad spend or organic rank) to send buyers who then convert elsewhere.
  3. “single origin” is a content / variation mismatch. The variety pack ranks for a single-origin query. Buyers searching “single origin” want the Ethiopia bag, not a mixed pack. Improving the single-origin listing’s relevance for that term recovers intent-matched demand.
  4. Aligned rows are the baseline, not the insight. “ground coffee” and “coffee gift set” convert on the right ASIN. They confirm the engine works; the value is in the misaligned rows.
  5. This is a diagnostic card with no alert. It does not fire a threshold; it is a worklist you read during search and advertising reviews. Pair it with the search-term cards below to turn rows into actions.

This card is the bridge between visibility and sales; read it with:
CardWhy pair it with ASIN Conversion Rank by Query
Search Query Share (Brand)Tells you how much of branded search you own; this card tells you which ASIN converts it.
Top Branded Search TermsThe branded queries feeding this table.
Top Non-Branded Search TermsThe non-branded discovery queries where conversion-rank leaks matter most.
Organic vs Ad Sales ShareSeparates whether the conversion came from paid placement or organic rank.
Brand Registry CoverageThis card needs Brand Registry; coverage gaps explain missing data.
Top ASINs by RevenueCross-check whether your top revenue ASINs are also the ones winning their queries.

Reconciling against Amazon Seller Central

Where to look in Amazon Seller Central:
Seller Central → Brands → Brand Analytics → Search Query Performance (and the Search Catalog Performance / Top Search Terms reports). These show, per query, the ASINs earning clicks and conversions, which is the source for this card.
Brand Analytics is only available to Brand Registry enrolled sellers, and the reports are aggregated and anonymised by Amazon. Timing, settlement, and reporting-lag table:
TopicDetail
TimezoneBrand Analytics reports use Amazon’s reporting calendar for the marketplace; Vortex IQ aligns its 30D window to those reporting periods as closely as the data allows.
Reporting cadenceBrand Analytics reports are released on Amazon’s schedule (often weekly / periodic), not real time. The card refreshes when new Brand Analytics data is available, so it can lag live sales.
Aggregation / anonymisationAmazon aggregates and anonymises Brand Analytics. Figures are relative ranks and shares, not exact per-buyer counts, so the card cannot be reconciled to individual orders.
Brand Registry dependencyIf enrolment lapses or an ASIN is not under your brand, it drops out of Brand Analytics and out of this card.
Why our number may legitimately differ from Brand Analytics:
ReasonDirectionWhy
Reporting-period alignmentEitherBrand Analytics uses its own period boundaries; a 30D window will not always align exactly to Amazon’s weekly buckets.
Aggregation methodEitherThe card derives a conversion rank from Amazon’s share metrics; different aggregation choices shift the ordering at the margin.
Data freshnessOurs may lagBrand Analytics releases periodically; the card shows the latest available period, which can trail recent sales.
ASIN-set scopeEitherIf the card focuses on your top revenue ASINs, low-volume ASINs Amazon still lists for a query may be excluded.
Cross-connector reconciliation against other connectors the same seller may run:
CardExpected relationshipWhat causes legitimate divergence
google-analytics.revenue-trendDifferent search universe. GA4 sees your DTC site search and Google organic; Amazon Brand Analytics sees on-Amazon search. Independent populations.A query strong on Amazon may be weak on Google and vice versa; do not expect the rankings to match.
shopify.total_revenueIndependent channel. On-Amazon conversion does not appear in Shopify.No reconciliation; use to understand where search demand converts across channels.

Known limitations / merchant FAQs

Why is there no data on this card? The most common reason is that your brand is not enrolled in Amazon Brand Registry, which gates Brand Analytics. Check Brand Registry Coverage. Data can also be sparse for low-traffic queries that Amazon does not report. Clicks go to one ASIN but purchases to another. Is that bad? Not necessarily. It is common for buyers to click a small or cheap pack and buy a value size. It only matters when the purchase leaks to a competitor or to a clearly wrong product for the query, those are the rows to fix. Can I see the exact buyers or order counts? No. Brand Analytics is aggregated and anonymised by Amazon. The card shows relative ranks and shares, which is enough to prioritise but not to reconcile to individual orders. How fresh is this data? It is only as fresh as Amazon’s Brand Analytics release schedule, which is periodic rather than real time. The card shows the latest available reporting period, so it can trail today’s sales by days. Why does this card have no alert? It is a diagnostic worklist, not a threshold metric. You read it during search and advertising reviews to find query-to-ASIN leaks; there is no single number to alert on.
