Objective:
Establish a set of metrics to measure the success of the categories and filters, ensuring the right data points are tracked to evaluate performance effectively.
Tasks:
- Identify KPIs for Evaluation:
Determine which metrics will provide a comprehensive understanding of the categories and filters’ performance. These could include:- User Engagement Metrics: Time spent on site, bounce rate, pages per session, and click-through rates (CTRs) on categories and filters.
- Search and Filter Usage: Number of filter applications, most commonly used filters, filter abandonment rate, and user success rate in finding products.
- Sales Metrics: Conversion rates for products filtered by category, average order value (AOV) based on categories, and total sales from filtered searches.
- Customer Satisfaction: Post-purchase surveys or customer feedback regarding ease of navigation, filter functionality, and overall browsing experience.
- Device and Platform Analysis: Performance analysis based on mobile versus desktop usage to ensure responsive design and functionality.
- Set Benchmarks:
Establish baseline metrics to compare performance (e.g., previous quarter’s data, industry standards, or historical data before the implementation of categories and filters).
Timeline:
Define KPIs by 01-05-2025.
2. Gather Data from Analytics Tools
Objective:
Collect comprehensive data from analytics tools to evaluate the performance of the categories and filters in real-time.

Segment the data based on factors like:- User Demographics: Age, location, device type (mobile vs. desktop).
- Traffic Sources: Direct traffic, referral traffic, organic search, paid ads.
- Behavior Flow: How users interact with categories and filters before making a purchase or leaving the site.

Collect data by 01-15-2025.
3. Analyze User Behavior and Engagement
Objective:
To understand how users are interacting with the categories and filters, identify patterns, and uncover any usability issues.
Tasks:
- Behavior Flow Analysis:
Review how users move through the site, starting from category navigation to the application of filters and product selection. Identify any bottlenecks or areas where users drop off. - Most and Least Engaged Filters:
Identify which filters are used most frequently and which ones are neglected. This will help in determining if certain filters are unnecessary, confusing, or not well-promoted. - Category Performance Review:
Evaluate how well each category is performing in terms of clicks, engagement, and conversion rates. Identify underperforming categories that may require further refinement or categorization adjustments. - Mobile vs. Desktop Performance:
Compare how users engage with categories and filters across devices to ensure that both mobile and desktop experiences are optimized equally.

4. Identify Areas for Improvement
Objective:
Based on the performance data, identify specific areas that require improvement in order to optimize the user experience and drive better sales outcomes.
Tasks:
- Filter Efficiency:
Determine whether filters are too broad, too narrow, or irrelevant to users’ needs. This could involve adding new filters (e.g., size, material), adjusting existing ones, or removing underused ones. - Category Reorganization:
Identify if certain categories need to be reorganized or consolidated for better clarity and easier navigation. For instance, categories with low product listings might need to be merged, or new subcategories might need to be added to address customer needs. - Improve Mobile Experience:
If mobile engagement is lower than desktop, work with the design and development teams to address any mobile-specific issues, such as small clickable areas or slow load times for filtering options. - Improve Search Functionality:
Identify if the search bar and filters work well together. For example, users may struggle to find products if the filters don’t match search query results.
