Morphology

promotability = promotable (transparent) = promote + able + ity

Standard derivation from 'promote' (here 'to publicize') to 'promotable' and nominalization to '-ity' makes the relation clear for learners.

Etymology

Promotability comes from the verb promote (from pro- 'forward' + move 'to move') and the ending -ability 'ability'. A helpful way to remember it is 'able to be put forward', which explains why it means how suitable something is for promotion or marketing.
