Amazon A/B Tests And Rejects Wider And Smaller Product Titles
Amazon has been noticed a/b testing their product titles styles with at least 3 variants. The first variation stretched the width of the product title. The second variation decreased the font size. While the third variations combined both changes together - possible checking for interaction effects. Nevertheless, as of today the experiment looks like it completed and all three variations were rejected - hinting at higher optimality for the status quo (the control shown as "A").
What's more, Etsy A/B tested very similar smaller product titles, which were also rejected.
