Strengths of Personalization

  • A user can experience a comfortable, focused website.

  • Personalization can be used to automatically propagate access to the latest version of content.

  • Social collaboration features are available for users to communicate with each other, as they can be identified by their profiles.

  • A user can be provided with the content they need to fulfill a particular task. Within a company's intranet this can provide an invaluable tool for disseminating information.

  • A user can be provided with the content they need/want, thus reducing the time they need to perform search operations.

  • The content provider can steer the content to be seen by specific categories of users.

  • Rules can be defined to deliver content based on combinations of both user characteristics and behavior. This provides a sophisticated mechanism for personalizing their web-experience.
