Using Best Practices

Effective placement of recommendation boxes is crucial for maximizing an e-commerce store's performance. With a few exceptions, DharmaCrafts follows LimeSpot's best practices, leading to excellent performance.

Overview of recommendations boxes used on DharmaCrafts.com

On the home page, it's advisable to place the Most Popular items below the main banner, followed by a featured collection and a You May Like section. For collection pages, featuring Most Popular items in the collection above the product list can effectively capture attention.

On product pages, Related Items should appear right below the product description, with Frequently Bought Together items placed above. The cart page benefits from an Upsell section above the cart items, sometimes followed by Frequently Bought Together, Related Items, or Cross-Sell recommendations. These placements are designed to catch the shopper's eye at key decision-making points, potentially increasing conversion rates and enhancing the overall shopping experience.

Optimizations

In conjunction with LimeSpot's Customer Success team, DharmaCrafts is constantly experimenting with variations to incrementally drive more revenue from personalization.
