The Challenge

As one of the world’s largest e-commerce platforms, Amazon was facing increasing competition in a market that was demanding an even more seamless, intuitive, and personalized shopping experience. With a vast catalog of products, it was difficult for users to discover new items or navigate through different categories. The challenge was to create a more personalized shopping experience and improve product discovery while maintaining Amazon’s massive product variety.

The Journey

I began the redesign by studying user behavior through Amazon’s analytics and surveys, focusing on pain points in product discovery and the overall shopping journey. Many users reported feeling overwhelmed by the sheer volume of product options and had difficulty finding products that met their exact needs. Others had trouble managing their wish lists and recommendations, leading to a cluttered shopping experience.

Through collaboration with stakeholders and UX researchers, I worked on user personas, including both frequent and new shoppers, and developed new strategies for improving the browsing experience, especially for first-time users.

Design Process

  • User Research: Conducted extensive user interviews to identify key pain points in product discovery, checkout, and overall satisfaction. Amazon Prime users were also analyzed for habits around frequent purchasing.
  • Information Architecture: Analyzed Amazon’s massive catalog to simplify how products were categorized, making navigation clearer and ensuring that the most relevant items were surfaced based on user behavior and preferences.
  • Wireframing and Prototyping: Using Figma and Adobe XD, I developed wireframes and prototypes that emphasized streamlined navigation, a more dynamic homepage, and refined product recommendations.
  • A/B Testing: Ran several A/B tests on different variations of the homepage layout, product recommendation engine, and filtering options to determine which approach yielded the best user engagement.

The Solution

  • Enhanced Product Discovery: Created an adaptive homepage that dynamically changes based on user preferences, purchase history, and browsing patterns. Personalized recommendations were prominently featured, allowing users to discover relevant products more easily.
  • Refined Search Filters: Redesigned the search functionality to include more granular filters (e.g., price range, user reviews, seller location) and introduced a “Related Products” carousel for quicker discovery.
  • Simplified Checkout Flow: Streamlined the checkout process by reducing steps, making it easier for users to add items to their cart and checkout quickly, especially on mobile.
  • Mobile Optimization: Focused heavily on mobile experience enhancements, given that a large portion of Amazon users shop through their phones. Introduced one-click purchasing and simplified the product page layout for smaller screens.
