WALTHAM, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Yottaa, Inc., the leading cloud platform for accelerating and securing digital commerce experiences, today announced the general availability of its newest innovation, "Cache Experience". This groundbreaking capability enables online brands to redefine the online shopping journey by unleashing “instant” shopping experiences through Yottaa’s advanced page prefetch technology.
After experiencing record-level online traffic during the pandemic, retail brands now find themselves with multiple challenges across their eCommerce operations. With lower traffic levels, digital marketing teams are tasked with driving more shoppers to the site, which is very expensive. At the same time, these brands are seeing conversion rates drop and their eCommerce teams are tasked with finding ways to convert browsers to buyers once they are onsite.
Cache Experience: Accelerating the Digital Shopping Journey
Yottaa’s Cache Experience is designed to dramatically improve the performance of eCommerce sites by preloading pages before they are requested by a shopper. Utilizing advanced Service Worker technology, Cache Experience adds another layer of personalization by anticipating what a shopper might be interested in based on past shopping sessions and prefetching predicted resources in the background to deliver an instant loading experience during the shopping journey. The result? Lightning-fast page loads that get shoppers instantly engaged and more likely to stay on the site and buy.
Combined with Yottaa’s proven third party technology and image optimization capabilities, Cache Experience helps brands to significantly accelerate the entire shopping journey, from initial discovery all the way through checkout. This results in better digital experiences, lower bounces, and higher conversions.
Key Benefits of Cache Experience
