How easily can buyers find your listing?

Search discovery factors:

1. 1. Primary keyword in title — must appear in first 60 characters
2. Keyword indexing — is Amazon actually indexing your keywords?
3. Search rank position — where do you appear for key terms?
4. Ad coverage — are you bidding on all critical terms?
