Amazon zombie listings are those listings whose rankings have been taken over by other sellers, whose sales are poor, or even have ceased operations; and zombie mergers are to use these zombie listings, combined with our own product information, to recreate a new, more competitive listing.

To put it simply, it merges the comments on Amazon's zombie links into your new links. Imagine that a product has thousands of comments as soon as it is launched. It is hard not to have a huge sales volume!

Today, I will share with you how to find zombie listings and merge zombie links.

How to Find Amazon Zombie Links?

✅How to determine whether it is a zombie link?

a. The product must be out of stock for a long time, at least more than half a year, and there must be no shopping cart and price. In principle, it is best if it has been out of stock for more than 2 years and will not reappear.

b. The rating must be at least four stars and have many reviews;

c. The more positive reviews on the zombie link’s homepage, the better!

① Search keywords through Google

United States: site:www.amazon.com currently unavailable + keyword

France: site:amazon.fr Actuellement indisponible + keywords

Spain: site:amazon.es "No disponible" + keywords

Italy: site:amazon.it Attualmente non disponibile + keywords

UK: site:amazon.co.uk Currently unavailable + keyword

Germany: site:amazon.de Nicht verfügbar+keywords

② Search the directory through the background

To add a new product, directly enter the product keyword and select the category on the left, as shown in the figure below. If it shows that no one is selling it, it means that it is most likely a zombie product. Don’t follow the sales of big brands. The rest are ok. Through this situation, you can find a lot of useless listings, and sell them all with zero inventory first.

It is recommended to investigate the zombie listings through Keepa after finding them. Some of them may just be out of stock. Merging zombie listings is just merging a variant, but the brand and category must be consistent. Here, you must ensure that the category is consistent. Remember.

Change brand

⭕ Enter the ** page of the zombie, enter the brand name, assuming that your brand name is A. The zombie brand name is B, and we will get an error if we enter A directly in the background, so the first step is to enter A B in the background to save, and then enter A again in the background to save. There is a certain probability that the brand will directly jump to A at this time. It is rare, but there are many, and you need to look for it carefully. Basically, there are many such listings if you look carefully. And if you find one, you can find many listings of this brand.

⭕Open a case to modify the upload of your own product pictures on the ** page of the follow-up listing, and then find the physical product of your own product. Generally, companies will have an electronic label printer. Print out the UPC code of the follow-up listing and stick it on the product as evidence. The UPC code value can be found on the ** page.

The path to open a case is to modify the product details. This should not be difficult. Ask the customer service to modify the product image and brand, and provide the picture you just took with the UPC code as evidence. Foreign customer service is still preferred, and you can file a case via email. If you can't change it, it must be Amazon's self-operated or brand registered. For the rest, you can try a few more times.

However, when opening a new case, you must ensure that the previous case is closed, otherwise it will be merged.

⭕ Directly change your listing brand to someone else’s.

Of these three methods, I usually use the first one more often, but there are not many suitable ones on the market now. If you find one that can be changed directly, there is usually a sign that when you are following the sale, there is no brand in the upper right corner, only Manufacturer.

Merge Zombie LISTING

That is, merge the listing variations through the batch upload form, or seller friends who have independent websites can upload this product to their own independent website, and then open a case with the independent website link with pictures and UPC and directly contact customer service to merge it.

This behavior also has certain risks. If there is a problem with the ASIN you operate, or if you forcibly merge products of different categories, and the buyer finds out and complains, it will cause the listing to be removed from the shelves or the account to be blocked.

This system loophole on the Amazon platform can allow a product to gain hundreds of reviews at once. However, this method can only increase the number of reviews and is of no help for the ratings. Even so, a large number of reviews can quickly increase the conversion rate of the product.
