Description
Generating SEO-optimized Product Listings Using Deep learning and NLP Techniques for Amazon. With Amazon coming to Pakistan and giving sellers a chance to sell on Amazon, there are a lot of challenges associated with it. People hire expensive virtual assistants, learn the skills themselves or fail at their businesses due to lack of e-commerce tricks. One main task that needs to be done is writing product listings so that they are ranked higher according to Amazon's algorithm. We aim to create such a deep learning based model that generates listings that rank high on Amazon and benefit sellers in Pakistan.
