Facet Groups Sorting New Algorithm

Constructor is dedicated to enhancing the shopping experience for our customers' shoppers. Our new intelligent facet group sorting algorithm ensures that the most useful and attractive facets appear first.

What is it? A new algorithm that optimizes the order of facet groups based on various data-driven factors to make product discovery more natural and intuitive for shoppers.

How does it work? The algorithm considers:

  • Popularity: How often each facet is used by shoppers over a recent period.
  • Attractiveness: The attractiveness of the top items within each facet (e.g., facets with options that match products scoring higher on specific pages).
  • Diversity: The distribution of items within each facet to ensure a balanced and diverse set of facets, preventing any single facet from dominating the list.

These principles are combined to calculate the final position of each facet group, using a combination of the popularity score, the average score of top items, and a measure of diversity to determine the overall attractiveness of each facet.

What problem does it solve? Facet group sorting improves the responsiveness and accuracy of facet sorting, aligning more closely with current user preferences and behaviors. This leads to an enhanced shopping experience, helping shoppers find the most attractive products with ease.

Availability: The feature is rolling out to all customers, replacing the current default facet groups sort with this new algorithm.

For more information about this capability, please connect with your Customer Success Manager or contact us through support@constructor.io .
