Episode Summary

In Episode 147 of the Shopify Solutions Podcast, recorded on Black Friday 2024, Scott Austin explores online Black Friday deals to extract valuable insights for e-commerce businesses. He begins by searching for "best gifts for holiday 2024," analyzing a Good Housekeeping article listing 28 recommended products. Using these items, he conducts targeted searches combining product names with terms like "Black Friday" or "Cyber Monday" to assess search results and consumer interest.

Scott utilizes Google Ad Planner to evaluate the specificity of search queries, noting that highly specific ("long-tail") searches often show minimal search volume. He observes that broader terms, such as "Black Friday luggage deals," yield higher search volumes. Additionally, he finds that the term "deals" is more frequently searched than "sale," and "Black Friday" surpasses "Cyber Monday" in search popularity.

The episode emphasizes the importance of selecting appropriate keywords for optimizing marketing campaigns, highlighting that word choice significantly impacts search visibility and consumer engagement. Scott's analysis offers practical guidance for e-commerce businesses aiming to enhance their Black Friday and Cyber Monday strategies through effective keyword utilization and understanding consumer search behaviors.
