The information on this page is not relevant for the CIS countries.
If the system predicted no sales for the product in the next 30 days, it’s considered unpopular and gets archived automatically.
Prediction is based on combination of:
- low PDP view rates;
- no sales for a long time;
- uncompetitive price;
- no products’ advertisement;
- it’s ranked low in search results.
We archive unpopular products to prevent overall sales performance from decreasing and give you an opportunity to upload new products, that can be interesting for customers.
Why were my products auto-archived
Analyse auto-archived PDPs.
When creating a product, fill in as many attributes as possible, add photos of a good quality, and a detailed product description in Russian. Set a competitive product price as well, depending on its type and the availability from other sellers.
Take into account the Content rating metric. It will tell you what characteristics to fill in for your product to make it the most attractive to customers.

How to restore auto-archived products
You can’t restore auto-archived products. They’re not included in the total upload limit, which means you can create new PDPs.
For creating, check product requirements and limits for creating products. Don’t copy auto-archived or unpopular products. If you upload these PDPs without editing, they may be auto-archived too.
How to avoid auto-archiving of my products
We recommend you to:
- Monitor the content quality and products demand.
- Timely manage product prices.
- Use the Ozon promotion tools. Promotion helps to increase sales and keep previously unpopular products on the storefront.
