Trending For You

Trending For You can be a great value-driver by promoting your most popular products to exactly the right users. With Miso, you can get these recommendations automatically through a single API call.

Example for Trending For You

Introduction

Trending For You is one type of recommendation that never seems to go out of style. It's a way to highlight the 🔥 products that are currently getting a lot of attention on your site, and make sure they find the right users. These recommendations are often showcased via a "Popular for others like you" ribbon on your homepage.

When trending product recommendations aren't personalized, they can feel distracting and clickbaity. However, with Miso this content will be popular and still tailored to users' interests and preferences. You can generate Trending For You recommendations using the User to Trending API. Additional input parameters can be used to tune these recommendations, for example to show what's trending in a certain location.
