Relevant information is becoming increasingly rare and customers are quickly becoming bored. Through the Internet, customers find themselves in a world flooded with offers, products and services. The increasing number of options leads to customers being quickly distracted.

Website users decide within seconds whether they like its contents or offers. If customers perceive them to be irrelevant, they will leave your website or online store right away.

A solution for this challenge is Hyper Personalization. It describes a set of technologies and methods that allow websites to be tailored to individual users and thus to create a relevant experience for each customer.
