💡 Quick answer: Amazon allows up to 200 characters for product titles. However, Amazon's search results typically show only the first 80-115 characters before truncating. Mobile search shows even fewer - often just 70-80 characters. The most critical keywords must appear in the first 80 characters.

How to write Amazon titles that rank and convert

The formula that works consistently: [Brand] + [Product Name] + [Key Feature 1] + [Key Feature 2] + [Size/Color/Quantity] + [Use Case]. Put your highest-volume search keyword as early in the title as possible. Amazon's search algorithm weights keywords that appear earlier in the title more heavily.

What happens if my Amazon title exceeds 200 characters? ▼
Amazon may suppress your listing - meaning it won't appear in search results - if your title exceeds the category limit. You'll typically receive a listing quality alert in Seller Central.
Do Amazon titles affect SEO outside of Amazon? ▼
Yes - Amazon product pages are indexed by Google, and your product title becomes the H1 heading of your Amazon listing page. Products with keyword-rich titles tend to rank better in Google Shopping results as well.
