Amazon A+ Content Templates: Free Layouts for Every Category

Why Templates Accelerate A+ Content Creation
Creating A+ Content from scratch for every product is time-intensive. You need to decide which modules to use, how to arrange them, what content goes where, and how images and text work together. For sellers managing dozens or hundreds of SKUs, this process does not scale.
Templates solve this by providing proven module arrangements that you can customize with your product-specific content. Instead of starting from a blank canvas every time, you start with a framework that is already optimized for conversion.
The templates in this guide are based on analysis of top-performing A+ Content across Amazon's major categories. Each layout specifies the module type, image dimensions, content focus, and why that particular arrangement works for the category.
Understanding Amazon's Module Types
Before diving into templates, here is a quick reference of the modules available in Basic A+ Content. For full specifications, see our A+ Content image sizes guide.

Template 1: The Universal Starter (Works for Any Category)
This is the safest starting point for any product category. It covers all essential information without requiring category-specific knowledge.
Module Layout
| Order | Module Type | Content Focus |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Standard Single Image (970x600) | Hero lifestyle image with product in context |
| 2 | Standard Three Images and Text (300x300 each) | Three key features with icons and short descriptions |

Why This Works
The flow follows a natural purchase decision path: attract attention (hero), build interest (features), provide details (specs), aid decision-making (comparison), build trust (lifestyle), and close (brand story). This sequence works regardless of product category because it mirrors how customers process information.

How to Customize These Templates
Step 1: Select Your Category Template
Choose the template closest to your product category. If your product spans categories (a kitchen gadget that is also an electronics device), blend the most relevant modules from each template.
Step 2: Adapt the Content Focus
The content focus column in each template is a guide, not a rule. Adjust based on your specific product's selling points. If your kitchen product's biggest differentiator is its patented material, swap the hero image to focus on that rather than a generic lifestyle shot.
Step 3: Create Images to Spec
Using the dimensions specified for each module type, create or generate your images. Ensure every image meets Amazon's requirements — correct dimensions, RGB color mode, under 5MB, no prohibited content.
For a comprehensive breakdown of image requirements, reference our image specifications guide.
Step 4: Write Module Copy
For modules that include text fields, write concise, benefit-focused copy. Amazon's A+ text fields have character limits, so every word matters:
- Lead with the benefit, support with the feature
- Use short sentences and bullet-point thinking
- Avoid Amazon-prohibited language (see our compliance guide)
Step 5: Review and Submit
Preview your A+ Content in both desktop and mobile views before submitting. Pay attention to:
- Text readability on mobile
- Image quality at actual display size
- Module flow and narrative coherence
- Compliance with Amazon's content guidelines
Scaling Templates Across Your Catalog
For sellers with large catalogs, the real power of templates is scalability. Here is how to use them efficiently across many SKUs:
Create category-level templates. If you sell 30 kitchen products, create one refined kitchen template and adapt it for each SKU. The module structure stays the same; only the images and copy change.
Build image asset libraries. Create reusable assets — branded backgrounds, icon sets, font styles — that maintain consistency across your catalog.
Use AI generation for scale. Tools like zonfy can generate complete 7-image A+ sets for each product, maintaining template consistency while customizing content for individual SKUs. This is particularly valuable for sellers managing 50+ ASINs who cannot afford custom design for every listing.
Document your template standards. Create an internal style guide that specifies your brand colors, fonts, image treatments, and content voice. This ensures consistency whether you, a team member, or a freelancer is creating the content.
Which Template Performs Best?
Based on conversion data across categories:
- Comparison chart placement matters most. Templates that include a comparison chart consistently outperform those without one, regardless of category.
- Hero images set the tone. Listings where the first module is a high-quality lifestyle image convert better than those leading with feature grids or text.
- Specification modules reduce returns. Templates that include detailed specification modules show lower return rates, which improves profitability even if conversion rates are similar.
- Brand story modules increase repeat purchases. The final brand story module does not significantly impact first-purchase conversion, but it correlates with higher repeat purchase rates.
The Universal Starter template (Template 1) is the most battle-tested framework. If you are unsure which template to use, start there and refine based on your category's unique requirements.
