Overview

What it reads, what it promotes, what comes back, what you can change.

What it looks at
Search terms, joined to each product's own target
  • Search term performance over your lookback window
  • Query, match type, clicks, conversions, ACoS, cost, ad sales
  • Advertisement target ACoS, joined in per term
What it promotes
Three tiers, on thresholds read from your own account
  • Auto to Broad, Broad to Phrase, Phrase to Exact
  • Click floors set from your converting-term percentiles
  • ACoS gate from the product's target, or the account median
What comes back
Keywords created, and a summary by tier
  • One new keyword per candidate, in the destination campaign
  • Keyword text taken from the original search query
  • An SMS with migration counts per tier
What you can change
Six settings, per run, without editing the skill
  • Lookback window, marketplace, minimum clicks
  • A conversion floor for each of the three tiers
  • Tighter or looser thresholds for a season, on one run

Which terms earned a tighter match type, and at what volume

Sample figures. Your own numbers appear the first time the skill runs.

Run Settings
The six things this skill asks you to set.
Lookback days
How far back to read search term performance. Longer on lower-traffic accounts, so the percentiles rest on real volume.
Min conversions auto to broad
How many conversions a term needs before it graduates out of an auto campaign into broad match.
Min conversions broad to phrase
The conversion floor for tightening a broad term to phrase. Raise it to promote fewer, more certain terms.
Min conversions phrase to exact
The conversion floor for exact match, the tier with the most bid control. The strictest of the three.
Marketplace
Which Amazon marketplace to analyse, such as USA, UK or DE. One marketplace per run.
Min clicks filter
The minimum clicks a term needs to enter the candidate pool at all, before tier thresholds apply.

Frequently Asked Questions

This is some text inside of a div block.

This skill reads your search term report, keeps terms with clicks and conversions above the floors you set, and creates the broad match keyword in the destination campaign. It covers Auto to Broad, Broad to Phrase and Phrase to Exact in the same run.

Does it create the keywords, or just list them?

It creates them. Each migration candidate becomes one new keyword in the destination campaign, with the promoted match type and the keyword text taken from the original search query.

How are the click thresholds decided?

They are read from your own account, from the distribution of your converting terms: the median for Auto to Broad, the 75th percentile for Broad to Phrase, the 90th for Phrase to Exact. Nothing is hard-coded, so the bar moves with your traffic.

What ACoS does it use as the cut-off?

What ACoS does it use as the cut-off?

Should I add the promoted term as a negative in the auto campaign?

This skill does not add negatives. Pair it with a negative keyword skill if you want to stop the auto campaign bidding on a term you have just promoted.

How often should I run keyword harvesting?

Weekly suits most accounts, and the skill can run on a schedule. A pass before a peak event is also useful, so your best terms sit on exact match with their own bids.
