Hi there, hope you're having a great Friday!
This is Colm and Simon from CommerceGurus, with a handpicked weekly roundup of eCommerce articles.
Misalignments between a marketing campaign and the destination page happens all the time. Shoppers often fail to find what they expect because a traditional product detail page is simply too general.
The major difference between a product detail page (PDP) and a landing page is context.
Visitors usually arrive on a product detail page from a category page. There’s a heavy shopping mindset at play here. Visitors are specifically looking for products and comparing options. It doesn’t align with a specific campaign, so it doesn’t target a specific audience segment or problem.
For these cases, we need landing pages. They’re similar to product detail pages, but they have a different purpose. They certainly don’t replace the product page. Both of these pages work together to create a high-converting digital experience.
The Good has published an excellent article on this topic with examples of real-world high-quality landing pages used within eCommerce.

But get it wrong and you’ll turn customers off before you’ve even started to build a relationship with them.

New users often struggle to identify opportunities for optimizing their websites, while experienced users may need fresh ideas for new experiments.
Growthbook has built a tool called WebLens, an AI-powered hypothesis generator, to enhance A/B testing by efficiently analyzing websites and proposing actionable optimization strategies.
It can generate DOM mutations in JSON format, making it easier to create new experiments in GrowthBook.
For example, on an eCommerce site, the generator might recommend repositioning the checkout button or simplifying the navigation menu to boost conversion rates.
