Pin a Product in Predictive Merchandiser
You can pin a product so that it occupies a fixed position in the search results when your customers run a particular query. This can be helpful if you have bestsellers or popular items that you want customers to see first, for example.
| Boosting a product increases the product’s position in the results, but takes other factors into consideration while doing so. As a result, it does not guarantee the product will occupy a specific position in the list. Pinning a product, however, places the product at a specified position regardless of other factors. |
When you pin a product, either a new rule is created automatically or an existing pin rule is modified.
