Having a website or app is pretty much similar to owning or managing a store. Your app has to be seamless in terms of experience, and from time to time, you will have to map a customer’s journey to make a sale.

It gives a small gist of the information before clicking the notification. It helps to get the point across, even if the customer does not have the time to open the notification.

  • Interactive Carousel: Many brands like Amazon or Myntra use an Interactive carousel mentioning the latest deals or if something was abandoned in the cart. With the highest open rate from 60 percent to 80 percent, these have been used by almost every organization these days.

2. Gamification

With new apps and websites getting released every day, it becomes challenging for companies to keep up with the competitors and ultimately keep the customers hooked for a longer time. We all know that engaged customers have a significant impact on the bottom line.

Gamification also helps in increasing the customer’s lifetime value, as customer engagement can lead to an increase of up to 40% in LTV.

4. Feedback and Surveys

Making an app or website from scratch is extremely critical and important work for a developer, but optimizing the app and website experience from time to time requires constant effort and patience, even though sometimes success is not guaranteed. 

So how can you fully know what to include and fix in your app or website, or what more can you provide your customers? The only solution is through listening closely to your communities and asking them for feedback. The more you will interact with your customers and try to understand their needs, the better your product or solution will become.

Many organizations, for example, OnePlus, organize events just for understanding their customers and uses feedback to revamp for fix bugs in their products. Sometimes, this feedback is a game-changer when it comes to building trust and loyalty with your customer, as it makes them feel heard.

5. Chatbots

One of the most recent ways in which customers browse websites and apps is with the help of AI-based chatbots. Instead of complicated browsing, users can directly ask the chatbots for help. Many websites and applications driven by chatbots and AI have helped to optimize app and website experience in multiple ways like in-app navigation, search procedures, support on the helpdesk, and so much more, making the app and website easier to manage, more customized, and less time-consuming. These chatbots help organizations achieve their goals and optimize the app and website experience.

The global chatbot market size is expected to reach USD 2,485.7 million by 2028, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 24.9% from 2021 to 2028. The chatbot industry is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period as they enable enterprises to substantially reduce operating costs. Additionally, innovations in artificial intelligence and machine learning are likely to enhance the features of chatbots, which act as major drivers for the market.

6. A/B testing

This tool is extremely important during the testing phase, where companies can test their apps or websites on two different audiences and basically check how specific variables affect user behavior. The end goal is to arrive at the one that provides better results to optimize the app and website experience accordingly. 

The overall benefit of A/B testing is that it eliminates guesswork and focuses on data-driven conclusions. Some of the other benefits include observing the impacts of a new feature, learning what will work better with multiple audience groups, knowing how to boost conversions without risking your ad budgets, and so on. A/B testing ultimately helps marketers continuously improve their campaigns.
