Part I
                        Walk a mile in my shoes
                   (you don’t understand your visitors)

Takeaways

   You are not like your visitors…

   • You know to much - have a framework to fill in the gaps
   • You are too patient - willing to put up with major issues
   • You care – others are not invested at all

Part II
                      If you can’t find it easily,
                                                it does not exist
                                                      (awareness)

Takeaways

   • Your site does not exist in a vacuum
   • The search does not start on your site
   • Make sure key categories are visually discoverable
   • Don’t use banners with motion – they are evil
   • Carousels are useless and not discoverable
   • Don’t rely exclusively on text nav-bar labels

Part III
               The power of self-selection
                                                      (interest)

Copyright © 2013, SiteTuners - All Rights Reserved.            #mivacon13 @tim_ash
Not useful interest taxonomies


    • Color – secondary to the other choices
    • Price – don’t know what is reasonable
    • Brand – don’t really know any




Copyright © 2013, SiteTuners - All Rights Reserved.      #mivacon13 @tim_ash
Takeaways

• Provide a small number of clear and useful choices
• Do not show product-level items too early
• Don’t “throw up” all over your visitors (too many items)
• Not everything is a “filter” at this stage
• Create useful taxonomies & product wizards
• Fix your onsite search
