Score your live listings for eBay search with the Listing Optimiser

The Listing Optimiser is a portfolio-wide view of every active listing in your eBay shop, scored and sorted worst-first, so you can see at a glance which listings are holding back your search performance and exactly what to fix on each one.

What the Listing Optimiser shows you

Instead of opening listings one at a time, the Optimiser puts your whole portfolio on a single screen. Every active listing gets a score, and the list is ordered worst-first, so the listings that need attention most are always at the top rather than buried in a long alphabetical or date-sorted table.

Next to each listing you get a plain-English top fix: the single most useful change to make to that listing, rather than a wall of jargon or a raw checklist. The idea is that you can work down the list, apply the top fix, and move to the next one without having to interpret what the score actually means.

Filtering and finding listings

Listings are grouped into three bands so you can triage quickly:

• Needs work, for listings with the weakest scores and the biggest opportunity to improve.
• Good, for listings that are solid but not yet fully optimised.
• Strong, for listings that are already close to eBay best practice.

Use the band filter to focus on one group at a time, for example working through every “Needs work” listing in a single session. A search box lets you jump straight to a specific listing by title or SKU if you already know which one you want to check.

The KPI summary

Above the listing table, a set of KPIs gives you a portfolio-level snapshot before you drill into individual listings:

• Average score, the overall health of your live listings across the shop.
• Need work, how many listings currently sit in the weakest band.
• Required-spec gaps, how many listings are missing item specifics that eBay treats as required for their category.
• Account standing, a view of your account’s standing alongside your listing quality.

These KPIs are useful for tracking progress over time. As you work through the “Needs work” band and apply fixes, you should see the average score rise and the required-spec gap count fall.

Access

The Listing Optimiser is one of DashVue’s AI features, so scoring and the AI fixes use your AI actions (every account gets a free monthly allowance, then you can add an AI pack). It is also gated behind a Full Access eBay connection for anything beyond viewing: if your DashVue account is only connected to eBay with read-only access, you can see your scores and top fixes, but you will need Full Access to publish any changes back to a listing.
