Archive versus remove
Archiving stops new tracking and frees the slot against your plan's competitor limit, but keeps the historical data you already collected. Removing a competitor deletes it entirely.
If it does not work
- If you want the competitor gone entirely rather than kept for reference, see Removing a competitor instead.
- If you are not sure how long archived history is kept, see Competitor history and how far back it goes.
