PureClarity uses zones as designated areas across your website to display personalized, relevant content. These zones serve as containers for campaigns and can appear on web pages and in automated email campaigns.

What are Zones?

Zones are specific locations on your website where PureClarity can display dynamic content. The example below shows a homepage zone displaying personalized product recommendations: Example of a zone showing personalized product recommendations
Campaigns determine what content appears in zones, when it appears, and who sees it. Zones are simply the containers where this personalized content is displayed.

Zone Limitations and Performance

  • Maximum 8 zones per page to maintain optimal site performance
  • Multiple zones per page type supported (e.g., header, sidebar, footer zones on product pages)
  • Cross-page consistency - zones can appear on multiple page types with different content
