Amazon’s seasonal products for Spring break

Hey Reader,

Not only have the freezing temperatures swept across the USA, but they’ve also reached Amazon. Today, EcomCrew presents you the top 10 keywords from the past two weeks of February. 

It's that time of the year for Amazon sellers to launch their seasonal products for Spring Break! The usual Spring Break Getaway will look different for everyone this year, but despite this, products like “high waisted bikini swimsuit for women” have multiplied their searches in recent weeks, taking our #5 spot in today’s top 10. Related products in this keyword have gone from selling 749 units to 1,209 units in the past few days.

In last week's top 10, one of the keywords that rose to the top was "outdoor faucet covers for winter freeze protection". This week, as temperatures have finally decided to calm down, we figured out that tons of Amazon buyers were looking for a way to handle problems like minor cracks in their pipes by installing "sharkbite fittings ½ inch". The products related to this keyword have had a massive search and one of them has even managed to sell 1,526 units in just a few days.

There’s no question that seasonal products like these are due for a badge from Amazon. But what exactly are the qualifications for an Amazon badge? Read up all about it in our article where we do a deep dive into the different types of badges that Amazon gives to product listings, and how you can take advantage of them as an eCommerce seller. 

You’ve probably heard of the disaster going on in Texas, so it’s no question that demand for alternative home powering sources is currently surging, leading to a backlog of orders for backup generators supplied by Generac, our #2 biggest keyword, and Yamaha. The recent events have produced an increase in sales of generators on Amazon, going from selling 33 units to 182 units in a few days.

Hygiene is definitely important, but we never expected to see “elephant washer ear” on our top 10 movers list and it definitely took us by surprise! We have no idea why "elephant washer ear" has surged to the top, but if you have any ideas, hit reply! We’re all ears!

Happy selling,
