Amazon product title length warning

Any of you guys run into this yet? Our title is at 330 characters right now. I'd just rather see if this is a common nuisance, or something we should actually abide by.

Quote:

Hello,

We are writing because the titles that you created for the product detail pages listed at the end of this message do not follow our style guidelines for the Home & Garden category.

The product title is the first thing that customers see when they go to a detail page, so it is important that the title create a good first impression.

For this reason, page titles in this category cannot exceed 100 characters and cannot include the following:

-- Seller information or promotional messages
-- Symbols, special characters, or words in all capital letters
-- Key product features, product descriptions, or possible uses

We want to call your attention to this policy because violations may result in the removal of your offers, detail pages that you have added to our catalog, or your Amazon selling privileges. To learn more about our style guidelines, search “Titles in Home & Garden” in Seller Central Help.

If you would like these pages to remain in our catalog, please correct the titles of the detail pages listed below and make any changes necessary to comply with the Home & Garden style guidelines. You can edit page titles on the Manage Inventory page in the Inventory section of your Seller Central account (https://sellercentral.amazon.com/myi...istingsSummary).

If you need help editing a title, click the “Contact Seller Support” link at the bottom of any page in Seller Central (https://sellercentral.amazon.com/gp/...azon-form.html).

It's their site and you need to abide by the rules. Personally speaking, I don't like mile long titles and I doubt most people do, which is why Amazon has this rule.

If it is an Amazon rule I would follow it.

Yea, we trimmed it down. Not trying to fight it, just curious if anyone else has run into this.

Well said ovidiu.

@OP, someone has picked up this on your listings - best to fix and avoid problems

And be a really good beaver from now on. One violation of any kind, and Amazon will be watching your account like a hawk, having real humans pore over your listings. Don't slip up!
