Amazon title limits are changing. Learn how to protect your most important keywords, update listings faster, and keep Amazon’s AI from making costly changes to your product titles.

Amazon is introducing a major product title update beginning July 27, and sellers need to understand what is changing before Amazon’s AI starts rewriting their listings. Most product titles will be limited to 75 characters, while an additional 125 characters can be placed in a new Item Highlights field. Although Amazon says the split should not affect indexing, advertising relevance, or searchability, sellers should still carefully review which keywords remain in their titles and how important phrases are structured.

In this episode, Bradley Sutton explains why the first 75 characters still matter for Amazon SEO and how sellers should prioritize their brand name, main product keyword, and key distinguishing features such as size, color, or quantity. He also demonstrates how to preview Amazon’s proposed AI changes inside Seller Central. While Amazon’s recommendations may preserve most listing content, even a small wording change can remove an important exact keyword phrase and potentially weaken a product’s relevancy signal.

For sellers managing hundreds or thousands of listings, manually reviewing every title is not practical. That is where Helium 10’s new Bulk Optimize Titles feature inside Listing Builder becomes especially valuable. Diamond Plan members can select multiple active listings, generate AI-recommended titles and Item Highlights, review the suggestions from one screen, and sync the optimized content directly to Amazon. The tool is designed to preserve valuable keyword phrases while keeping listings compliant with Amazon’s new character limits.

Amazon’s update does not need to become a last-minute emergency. Review your titles, protect your most valuable search terms, and use the right tools to update your catalog efficiently. Sellers who want access to Bulk Optimize Titles can use coupon code SSP20 to save 20% on the Helium 10 Diamond Plan for six months. Do not wait for Amazon’s AI to decide how your products should be presented. Take control of your listings before the changes take effect.
