Amazon ads offer unparalleled visibility and sales growth. It’s absolutely a must platform to advertise on if you have an Amazon listing already. But it does demand clear optimisation to prevent the budget getting wasted. But overall its a good platform with a quick to understand dashboard.

Automated Translation from Spanish

1 - The cost is usually high due to high competition 2- The reporting granularity is quite low so it may lead to wasted spend and hinders deep analysis 3 - Bidding constraints like dayparting and specific device type are not available which prevents us from maximising ad exposure during peak conversion hours

I dislike most about Amazon ads is the high competition that often leads to expensive clicks and reduced profit margins It can also be challenging to understand why certain campaigns perform better that other due to limited transparency in the algorithm.

It can be an expensive option and requires daily optimization to avoid wasting budget.
