description data quality Fix “Missing product highlights” on Meta Commerce Manager
Product description lacks scannable bullet structure. Meta favours items with clear bullet-point highlights for catalog card visibility — pure paragraph descriptions get suppressed in scan-heavy placements.
What you see in Meta Commerce Manager:
Missing product highlights Catalogs without product_highlight populated miss scannable visibility in catalog card views. Users scan bullets before reading paragraphs; items with strong highlights win clicks.
The pattern: 3-5 bullets per item covering key features. Concrete benefits with specific numbers ("30-hour battery") outperform abstract claims ("long-lasting battery").

Description too long
Meta caps descriptions at 9,999 characters but truncates to ~90 in many placements. Long descriptions don't break catalogs but reduce visible content in product detail views.

Amazon's listing quality score is below the threshold for full visibility. Listings serve but get suppressed ranking — they appear lower in search and rarely win the Buy Box.

FAQ
Do I write bullets in the description or the dedicated field?
Both if both are supported. Bullets in product_highlight get specific placement treatment; bullets in description get parsed as content.
