Overview

In early 2024 Helium 10 released a podcast episode that walks sellers through the latest enhancements to Amazon’s Search Query Performance reports and Brand Analytics dashboards. The upgrades add click‑through metrics, device‑level breakdowns, and a “New‑to‑Brand” indicator, giving sellers deeper insight for keyword refinement, competitor monitoring, and ad‑budget optimization.

Key Points

• Click‑through data now visible — Sellers can track how many shoppers click their product after typing a specific term; a kitchen‑goods vendor, for example, observed 2.4 × more clicks on “stainless steel spatula” than on “silicone spatula.”
• “New‑to‑Brand” metric introduced — The dashboard flags customers who have never purchased from the seller before, enabling a cosmetics brand to isolate a fresh audience of 1,200 first‑time buyers in a single month.
• Device‑type filtering added — Data can be separated by desktop, mobile‑web, and mobile‑app, letting a toy retailer compare click‑through rates on tablets versus smartphones and spot a 30 % drop on mobile.
• Direct feed into Helium 10 Keyword Tracker — Real‑time query information streams into the keyword monitoring tool, so a home‑decor seller can see ranking movement the moment a new phrase like “boho wall art” spikes.
• Expanded export formats (CSV & Excel) — Users may download the full query log for offline modeling; a sports‑apparel seller built a spreadsheet linking weekly query volume to seasonal sales peaks and identified a 15 % lift after adjusting bids.
• Custom date‑range and trend view — Sellers can now select any start‑end window and view week‑over‑week trends, allowing a pet‑supply business to detect a sudden dip in “dog chew toy” clicks after a price change.

How Search Query Performance & Brand Analytics Work

1. Data capture — Amazon records every shopper’s entered term, the product they click, and whether a purchase follows. For instance, an organic‑tea merchant sees the phrase “herbal detox tea” generate 120 clicks in seven days, resulting in 15 sales.
