购物搜索被两头分流:ChatGPT 管调研,Amazon 管下单,Google 夹在中间

Why we picked it

这条值得点开看看,谷歌最赚钱的购物搜索正在被 ChatGPT 和 Amazon 两头分食。做电商、投广告的朋友可以想想自己的预算该往哪里挪,单纯押注 Google Ads 的思路可能要改改了。

The Information 数字广告记者 Alix Coutures 提出了一个正在发生的格局变化:消费者用 ChatGPT 做产品调研,用 Amazon 完成购买,Google 在购物搜索上的位置被两头挤压。她的原话是“Google is really squeezed between now Amazon and OpenAI”,即 OpenAI 抢走了深度研究环节,Amazon 抢走了商品成交环节。这意味着传统上以购物搜索为核心广告收入的 Google,正在失去最值钱的那部分流量入口。

背后的机制是:ChatGPT 的深度研究类功能已经能代替用户比较产品、看评测、整理参数,用户不必再输入 Google 搜索框;而下单环节用户习惯直奔 Amazon,因为那里有价格、物流和评价体系。广告主也随之重新分配预算,广告曝光点从 Google 的搜索结果页转移到了 ChatGPT 对话和 Amazon 站内。

对广告行业来说,这是搜索广告入口被拆分的信号:调研和购买变成两个平台、两个购买点。对开发者和企业而言,需要重新评估在 Google Ads 之外的渠道布局,包括 ChatGPT 内的购物推荐曝光和 Amazon 站内广告。
