Behavioral Email Segmentation

What is Website Activity Email Segmentation?

Website Activity Email Segmentation

Website activity segmentation is an email marketing strategy that groups subscribers based on their interactions with your website, including browsing patterns, content consumption, and on-site behavior. This approach enables marketers to create targeted email campaigns that align with demonstrated interests and engagement levels, leading to more relevant and timely communications.

Key Components

  • Page Views: Which pages subscribers visit and frequency

  • Time on Site: Duration and depth of website visits

  • Content Interaction: How users engage with site content

  • Search Behavior: On-site search terms and patterns

  • Product Views: Which items attract attention

  • Cart Activity: Adding, abandoning, or completing purchases

  • Device Usage: How subscribers access your site

  • Navigation Patterns: How users move through your site

How AI Helps Website Activity Segmentation

Modern AI and machine learning tools enhance website activity segmentation by:

  • Predicting next likely actions based on browsing patterns

  • Identifying content consumption patterns

  • Detecting signs of purchase intent

  • Mapping complex customer journeys

  • Recommending personalized content

  • Optimizing trigger timing for automated emails

  • Forecasting likelihood of return visits

AI can be used in a powerful way with website activity to provide models that can be easily used to indicate how engaged a subscriber is with a brand. These models can then be used to drive more accurate segments.

Retail & Ecommerce Segmentation Examples for Website Activity

  • Power Browsers: Target visitors who view 10+ products per week but haven't purchased with social proof emails featuring trending items and first-purchase incentives

  • Cart Abandoners: Segment visitors based on cart value and items abandoned to create tiered recovery campaigns with increasingly competitive offers

  • Category Explorers: Identify shoppers who browse multiple categories deeply to create educational content series introducing complementary departments and products

  • Product Research Champions: Target visitors who read reviews, compare products, and return to the same items with detailed product guides and comparison tools

  • Mobile App Prospects: Segment desktop visitors with frequent sessions to encourage mobile app adoption with exclusive app-only features and offers

Limitations and Considerations

  • Cookie restrictions impact tracking capabilities

  • Cross-device behavior difficult to consolidate

  • Bot traffic can skew metrics

  • Guest browsing creates blind spots

  • Session attribution challenges

  • Real-time processing requirements

For retailers and ecommerce brands, website activity segmentation helps bridge the gap between browsing behavior and email engagement, creating more cohesive customer experiences that drive conversions and build lasting relationships.
