Frequently asked questions
What makes a great product description?
Great product descriptions do three things: (1) Lead with the customer benefit, not just the feature. Not "bamboo material" but "stays hygienic longer than plastic — naturally antibacterial." (2) Use sensory and emotional language. (3) Anticipate objections and answer them. Feature: what it is. Benefit: what it does for the customer. Both matter, but benefit sells.
How long should a product description be?
For Shopify/WooCommerce: 150–300 words for the short description; longer for the full description below the fold. For Amazon: follow the 2,000 character limit for the product description field, plus 5 bullet points (each up to 200 characters). For Etsy: 1,000–2,000 characters is typical. For eBay: 200–500 words in a clean format.
How do I optimise a product description for SEO?
Include your primary keyword in: the product title (most important), the first sentence of the description, at least one bullet point, and the alt text of product images. Don't keyword-stuff — use the keyword naturally 2–4 times. Also include related terms (LSI keywords) — for "bamboo cutting board", include "wood cutting board", "kitchen board", "chopping board".
Should I write different descriptions for different platforms?
Yes — platform audiences have different expectations. Amazon buyers scan bullet points quickly and want to know what's in the box. Etsy buyers respond to story, craft, and personality. Shopify customers want to feel the brand. eBay buyers want specs and condition upfront. Our generator formats descriptions appropriately for each platform.

Features vs benefits: the copywriting secret
Features describe the product. Benefits describe what the product does for the customer. Feature: "3mm bamboo surface." Benefit: "gentle on knife edges — keeps your blades sharp 3x longer." The best product descriptions translate every feature into a customer benefit. Always ask "so what does that mean for the buyer?" after each feature.
Amazon product description best practices
Amazon gives you two content areas: 5 bullet points (most important — visible above the fold without scrolling) and the product description (below the fold, often hidden). Use bullets for your top 5 features/benefits starting with a capitalised keyword. The description field can include your brand story and supporting details. A+ Content (brand-registered sellers) allows rich media and dramatically increases conversion.
