Master module one best practices for print on demand design by optimizing thumbnails for clicks, designing for search results, and avoiding common beginner mistakes while exploring fonts and color profiles.
What I'm going to share here relates to standing out in the search engine results page (SERP), which is where half the battle is won these days on Amazon Merch, as the number of sellers & upload limits continues to increase.
Believe it or not, the best design doesn't always win out, and assuming most listings are targeting the same primary keywords, don't think that somehow keywords are solely responsible for one listing out-ranking the rest.
Try to use up as much of the graphics real estate as possible. BIGGER IS BETTER!
