Qty Products viewable (in reco widget)

Prev Next

Counts how often products became viewable inside recommendation widgets.

This metric is based on the dedicated product status viewable-reco. It counts the opportunity to see a product, not a confirmed view. A product is counted once, even if it enters the viewport several times. Recommendation Tracking documents when a product counts as viewable.

Note

This metric only returns data when the Recommendation Tracking extension is implemented.


Example

A recommendation widget below the fold loads with four products: Product A (40), Product B (30), Product C (20) and Product D (10). The visitor scrolls down. Products A and B become completely visible, Product C is only ever partly on screen, and Product D is never reached. The visitor then clicks Product A and buys it.

Qty Products viewable is 2, Products A and B. Product C does not count because it was never completely visible, Product D because it never reached the screen.
