By not only considering your customer’s interests through their browsing but by actively looking at their previous purchases, you are much more likely to improve their experience by understanding their spending habits. This could include you pushing content in consideration of pricing, and location as well, using the geo-targeting method describe about to increase the level of personalization towards your customers.
Therefore, it is a great idea to personalize your website as an e-commerce company towards your customers to increase their satisfaction, increasing the likelihood of increased traffic and return visits to your site.
