In the competitive e-commerce landscape, understanding user behavior is crucial for improving conversion rates. This analysis examines Buyechina's drop shipping user behavior paths through spreadsheet data to identify UX pain points and propose optimization strategies that enhance user satisfaction.
1. Data Collection and Spreadsheet Organization
The analysis begins with organizing user behavior data in a structured spreadsheet format with columns tracking:
- Timestamp:
- Page Views:
- Clicks & Interactions:
- Drop-off Points:
- Conversion Events:
Sample Spreadsheet Structure:
| User ID | Entry Page | Second Action | Checkout Start | Payment Page | Completion Status | Time Spent |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| UX4256 | Homepage | Search (25s) | Cart (42s) | N/A | Abandoned | 314s |
| UX7319 | Product A | Details View (18s) | Checkout (63s) | Payment (87s) | Completed | 225s |
2. Behavior Path Analysis Using Spreadsheet Functions
Key spreadsheet techniques applied:
2.1 Funnel Visualization
=COUNTIFS(range,"checkout") / COUNTIFS(range,"product_page")
This conversion rate formula helps identify drop-off between key steps.
2.2 Duration Calculations
=AVERAGEIFS(time_column, status_column,"abandoned")
Compare time spent between converted vs. non-converted users.
2.3 Heatmap Analysis
Color-coding spreadsheet cells based on interaction frequency to visualize hotspots.
