Sorting by margin

Optimize profitability by promoting higher-margin products

Higher margin = higher profit

Profitability, Margin, Profit, Optimization

Configure sorting so that higher-margin products take priority in the results. The system automatically highlights products that bring you a higher profit while preserving relevance for the customer.

How margin prioritization works

Margin weight

Set how strongly you want to emphasize margin vs. other factors (relevance, sales performance).

Minimum relevance

Products must be relevant to the query — margin will not influence irrelevant results.

Absolute vs. relative margin

Sort by absolute margin in CZK or by relative margin in percent.

Combining with other strategies

Margin combines with sales performance, stock availability, and other factors.

A/B testing

Test different margin weights and measure the impact on conversion and profit.

Automatic updates

When product margins change, sorting adjusts automatically.

Use case scenarios

1. Profit maximization

High margin weight — prioritize profit over sales volume. Ideal for niche products.

2. Balanced strategy

Medium margin weight — a combination of conversion and profitability. The most common setting.

3. Volume sales

Low margin weight — priority on sales performance and conversion. Margin plays a smaller role.

Example

Search query: "bluetooth headphones"

Without margin sorting:

  1. Sony WH-1000XM4 (15% margin, bestseller)
  2. AirPods Pro (12% margin, popular)
  3. JBL Tune 500 (35% margin, less known)

With margin sorting (medium weight):

  1. JBL Tune 500 (35% margin) ↑
  2. Sony WH-1000XM4 (15% margin)
  3. AirPods Pro (12% margin)
