📱 Best Platforms
Fiverr (Amazon listing translation and product description gigs for sellers expanding to new countries), Upwork (e-commerce translation jobs from brands launching in new Amazon and Etsy regions), Amazon seller forums and Facebook groups (sellers post asking for translation help when entering EU or Asian markets).
📖 The Hustle
E-commerce sellers expanding to Amazon.de, Amazon.co.jp, or Etsy's international markets need product titles, bullet points, descriptions, and backend search terms translated by a human who understands local shopping behavior. You translate listings AND optimize them for local search keywords. Charge $20-50 per listing or $150-400 for a full product catalog of 10+ items.
🚀 First Step
Pick a best-selling Amazon.com product, translate its title and 5 bullet points into your second language, and research the top local keywords for that product category.
🔑 Keys to Success
- Research local keyword equivalents in the target Amazon marketplace — the top English search term may not be the top German or Japanese search term.
- Adapt measurements, currencies, and sizing conventions to the target country (inches to cm, USD to local currency, US sizes to EU sizes).
- Read Amazon's listing guidelines for the target country — each marketplace has different rules about claims, formatting, and prohibited terms.
