When someone comes to your website, they can tell whether it’s for them. If it’s not, they’re out the door. ChatGPT can take a stale, impersonal website and add personalized elements that create a better experience. This isn’t just a trend; it’s a natural way to grow your business through digital marketing.

In this article, we’re going to teach you how to personalize your website and how to use generative AI to do it, including:

  • What is Website Personalization? 
  • Website Personalization and its Business Benefits
  • The Steps to Creating Personalized Web Content with ChatGPT and AIPRM
  • Website Personalization Examples 
  • Testing and Tracking Personalization Efforts

What is Website Personalization?

Successful websites are more than just their aesthetics or functionality. A great website should be built to support the audience you’re trying to serve. Personalization makes all the difference on your website. Consumers want to know that their needs are going to be met, and they want to feel important to your brand.

Personalization can include everything from:

  • Written content
  • Call-to-action buttons or links
  • Imagery
  • Banners
  • Navigation
  • Pop-ups
  • And more.

Researching audiences, planning experiences, continually updating your content, and tracking what works leads to a personalized website that resonates with your potential customers.

It makes sense that consumers want a personalized experience as they move through your site. You’ve probably felt the frustration of using an unhelpful website before yourself. So it’s clear that high-quality, personalized content is a priority on your site. 

However, many marketers end up unsatisfied with the copy they draft, and if you’re doing all your website copy on your own, the task can feel daunting, to say the least. This is where the right prompt in ChatGPT can make a world of difference.

Website Personalization and its Business Benefits

A website is one of the most valuable owned channels you have. It’s one of the few places you have complete control over how you appear to your audience, what information you share with them, and where you can directly influence their experience with you or your brand.

Other channels like social media, paid digital advertising, or traditional advertising formats don’t give you the freedom to control a customer’s journey from A to Z. 

Most consumers want to feel important to brands, and it’s up to you to make them feel like you care about them. Consumers want brands to give them unique experiences. In fact, it’s not just a want; it’s an expectation they have. 

Planning custom experiences from pop-ups for new shoppers to returning customers having a different experience when they log in are just a few examples of website personalization. 

Unlocking the Power of AI: Using ChatGPT and AIPRM for Website Personalization

The task of personalizing your site on your own can feel overwhelming. There are so many aspects to tackle, and you might feel lost. 

If you’re producing dynamic content (content that changes depending on information about your visitors) you’ll need to work with your developers or marketing operations to ensure the right message is delivered at the right time, to the right visitor.

But getting personalized writing for a range of different visitors?

This is where ChatGPT comes in.

It’s an artificial intelligence application that’s powered by machine learning. This model has been trained using a massive data set of billions of documents. This training allows you to generate responses based on ChatGPT’s predictive database and generate human-like text.

Think of ChatGPT as your writing buddy. It can help craft copy for your website in a way that feels personal to each visitor, help you write effective CTAs, and come up with web copy to use in customer service chatbots. 

To get the most out of it, you need to know how to ask the right questions. These questions, tasks, and content requests are called prompts.

A well-designed prompt can make a big difference in what ChatGPT generates for you. A well-written, directive prompt helps ChatGPT understand your needs, leading to ideal outputs. AIPRM can help you come up with great prompts or choose from a library of thousands of pre-built prompts.

The AIPRM prompt library can be filtered by topic and activity. Copywriting prompts can make writing website copy easier, quicker, and more efficient, especially if you’re not a copywriter by trade. AIPRM plans also allow you to pick the voice and tone of the copy you’re generating. You can ensure the content feels just right for your website.

The Steps to Creating Personalized Web Content with ChatGPT and AIPRM

Regardless of industry, ChatGPT can help you personalize your web

To start, you’re going to need to do a couple of things to help you on your website personalization journey:

Understanding Your Audience

Before you start any kind of personalization on your website, you need to get to know your customer base. The audience you currently serve all share one thing in common: they use your site and they are looking to your brand for solutions. 

However, addressing your audience as a whole is a mistake. Consumers are in different spots in the conversion funnel, and what they need from you will vary depending on if they’re only in a research phase versus being ready to make a conversion.

Customer Segmentation

It’s time to break out your audience into segmentations. Most often segmentation is built on demographic information that’s available through your Google Ads and Google Analytics (like this list you see below).

Source: Google

You can use other tools based on where your website is hosted, and it’s easy to pull down demographic data to start understanding who your different target audiences are.

Looking at factors like age, gender, income, profession, education level, marital status, family status, and location can unlock insights into who is using your site. 

Another valuable way to segment customers is by psychographics.

Psychographics include factors like your customers’ beliefs, habits, behaviors, values, goals, and other personal attributes. Customer surveys are powerful tools to obtain this kind of information from your customer base.

Crafting a customer survey can be as easy as choosing the right prompt from the AIPRM library and inputting it into ChatGPT.

Prompt: Survey Questions

Once you have some solid questions, all that’s left to do is create your survey and distribute it to your customers through email marketing and sharing it on social media.

Crafting Buyer Personas

Now that you’ve explored the segmentations that make up your customer base, you’re going to want to develop Buyer Personas. Buyer Personas take the different segmentations of your audience and combine them into a single “person” that describes one part of your audience. 

For example, let’s explore some potential buyer personas a brand could have. You’re an online clothing retailer that caters to high school to college students. 

Perhaps the majority of your audience is purchasing from the Midwest, and your psychographic segmentations from your customer surveys show you that this audience cares about following trends, sustainability, and they value recognition from their friends when it comes to what they wear. 

Already, we have an obvious buyer persona to target. Using demographics and psychographics, you can prompt ChatGPT to build a detailed buyer persona around these specific segmentations: 

Prompt: Create The Perfect Persona

You should start with your ideal customer, but you can’t stop there. 

Consider other personas who would be shopping for a high schooler or college student. You might see in your analytics that a large amount of your audience is actually comprised of consumers aged 35-50 years old. Their psychographics show they care much more about price point, durability, and making their kids happy.

Although they aren’t shopping for themselves, they’re a valuable persona because they’re shopping for their kids. As you did with your ideal audience, explore the demographic and psychographic segmentation of this second target audience.

You can use ChatGPT to help you build out multiple robust personas with AIPRM prompts like this: 

The Buyer’s Journey

So, now you have a cast of Buyer’s Personas who have their own specific wants, needs, and defining characteristics. How do you reach them? It’s time to distill down where your touchpoints with your consumers are. 

The Buyer’s Journey stretches from the moment someone learns what your brand is to becoming a loyal customer who keeps coming back. 

Using ChatGPT, you can input a prompt that will help you identify opportunities to reach your customers.

Prompt: Customer Value Journey

Other Customer Journey Prompts to Try:

The Buyer’s Journey helps you develop different website personalization strategies, whether it’s giving your customers personalized pop-ups for first-time buyers to save 10% on their first purchase or creating a localized landing page for buyers in specific geographic areas.

Website Personalization Examples

You have an array of elements at your disposal to target your different audiences on your website. Using ChatGPT and AIPRM to experiment with different strategies to personalize your site can help you push the needle on your digital marketing efforts and optimize your site for the personas that you’re targeting.

Let’s break down some examples for personalizing different web elements and how they can contribute to your website’s overall effectiveness–and get you the conversions you’re looking for.

Intuitive site navigation is essential to getting users from an awareness of your brand to getting to the purchase phase and eventual loyalty to your brand. If your website is confusing to use or doesn’t share important information in places people would expect it to be, you’ll be dealing with high bounce rates, low conversions, and an angry customer base. 

Here’s an easy place to utilize ChatGPT for some creative ideas on how to implement an intuitive navigation system that’s personalized to your business.

Prompt Link

By making it easy for users to stay on the site, you won’t have to worry as much about high bounce rates or customer dissatisfaction on your site.

Web Copy

Your copy is one of the most important features of your website. It communicates your unique selling points, who you are, what sets you apart from your competitors, what your product or service is all about, and much more. 

Writing effective and personalized web copy can feel like an impossible task, especially if you aren’t a copywriting expert.

Blog content

Blog content is another valuable area you might be neglecting on your site. You have your buyer personas, now you need to create content that caters to each one.

Using ChatGPT, you can start out by generating a monthly content calendar to give you an idea of how much you want to post every week.

Prompt: Get Monthly Content Calendar In 1 Click


Now that you have a content calendar, you can use what you know about your buyer personas to generate content ideas. ChatGPT can easily help you brainstorm ideas with the right prompt like this one: 

Prompt: Generate a List of Content Ideas for a Local Business

With just two prompts, you’ve got the framework for content creation your brand needs. You can easily decide how you want to organize your content, and it’s time to start the process of content creation. 

Did you know that you don’t have to write the blogs yourself? You can easily select a prompt to help you generate content and get your content production moving:

Prompt: Human Written | 100% Unique | SEO Optimized Article

You can select voice, tone, and call out specific keywords you want to target in your prompt, and there’s your jumping off point for developing strategic, helpful content that will resonate with your audience.

Homepage Personalization

Let’s look at an example of writing copy for your homepage. The business is a local electrician who’s looking to set themselves up as the go-to authority in their city, but they’re having trouble differentiating themselves from their competitors.

With just a click, you can get personalized content and a framework for your business’s homepage.

Desktop and Mobile Considerations

An important thing to keep in mind is making sure your web content is optimized for both desktop and mobile. Users will feel frustrated when content loads in awkwardly, meaning they would have to switch devices to properly navigate and use your site.

Another area many businesses neglect is their paid landing pages. Paid landing pages when built correctly can be great assets in driving traffic and conversions from ads in searches. However, ads are served less often and have higher bounce rates when the content on the landing page isn’t customized to match the search phrase they’re being served under.

This especially applies to landing pages that are meant to target specific geographic areas, but their content doesn’t include any specific local information about the local keyword. Imagine how frustrating it would be to open an ad that looks like it covers exactly what you’re looking for, but the landing page doesn’t have any specific information beyond its title.

Don’t let your paid ad strategy go to waste–here’s how you can optimize your paid landing pages using AIPRM prompts in ChatGPT. 

Prompt: Create the Perfect Landing Page

Images

Imagery is an essential part of website personalization. Great, personalized content built on strategy from your buyer personas should be supported by imagery that helps tell your brand’s story. Not only do images make the content feel more robust, but it creates a more polished brand experience overall. 

You might not have your own graphic designer on staff, but don’t let that stop you from developing images and content that support your brand. ChatGPT can be used alongside other generative AI applications, like Midjourney. 

Read more about AIPRM prompts for creating epic Midjourney images for your brand.

In this example, let’s imagine a nonprofit is trying to design custom images for a blog on its site. They’re writing about sustainability and protecting the environment in this particular post. They would be able to use ChatGPT to develop a Midjourney prompt which then they could use to generate images for their post:

Prompt: Photography-like Midjourney (v5) PROMPT Maker

Using a prompt can help them generate custom images to create a more personalized and polished experience for their user base.

Pop-ups, Banners, and CTAs

Imagine you’ve just clicked a link to an e-commerce site you’ve never shopped from before. Immediately, a pop-up window greets you with an offer of 20% off your first purchase. This is personalization in one of its most simple forms. 

Using ChatGPT, you can easily generate copy based on your audience’s unique visit to your site. 

Prompt: Generate Meta Ad Copy With 1 Click

The output of the ad was a little long for a pop-up, so we can just ask ChatGPT to shorten it.

You can customize your copy to match the experience of your first-time visitors and returning customers. Let’s consider this example: 

Your digital marketing agency is releasing a new case study based on the success of a campaign you just implemented for a client. The way you present the case study should be different depending on who is coming to your site as a first-time visitor versus a returning user by using cookie data.

Using a prompt, you can craft specific copy for that first-time visitor that encourages them to explore your case study and help encourage them to do more research on your services.

Prompt: Write the Perfect Website Hero Section

For your returning visitor, you can craft a pop-up or banner with copy that’s strategically positioned to encourage them to inquire about your services and make an expository call that could lead to a conversion for your business.

We just had ChatGPT rewrite the copy for a return visitor:

With so many prompts in the AIPRM library, you can develop personalized CTAs to drive sign-ups to your email marketing, share new content that you’ve just created like e-books or case studies, inform your customers about important upcoming events or brand updates, and so much more.

Customer Service

An area many brands struggle with is quick responses to customer service questions that actually answer users’ questions. You might not have a dedicated customer service team at your business, or if you do, it might be difficult to diagnose problems your customers are having due to little background information. 

Implementing a chatbot can immensely help your business and curate a much more personalized experience for your customers. Crafting specific copy and chatbot responses to help funnel customers to quick solutions might sound like it would be difficult and time-consuming, but with generative AI there’s an easy path forward. 

Let’s say you’re a lawyer who owns a small practice. You don’t have a dedicated customer service team, but you don’t want to leave your potential clients feeling frustrated if they can’t find the exact information they’re looking for on your website. You can have a simple chatbot, though, and a little customization can go a long way.

Here are a few ChatGPT-integrated Chatbots that can be trained on your website content:

Now, your customers can easily find the specific information they’re looking for, and if they can’t, they’ll quickly be connected to a receptionist who can help them.

Testing and Tracking Personalization Efforts

As you begin rolling out these personalization efforts on your site, it’s vital that you keep an eye on how different elements affect your site and user experience.

Tracking metrics in Google Analytics can give you a window into how your users are interacting with the site and how your site’s personalization efforts are performing. 

User behavior can be measured through metrics such as in-page clicks, bounce rates, scroll depth, user navigation patterns, site speed, impressions, engagement on content pieces, and shares. 

A/B testing is a valuable way to roll out your personalization efforts, especially when it comes to your content strategy.

Tracking and analysis of your existing content pieces versus new more personalized pieces of content can show you what you’re doing right and where to continue in your optimization efforts.

Above all else, it’s important to continually optimize your site based on what your users react well to. Keep an eye on your audience, and work to continue developing new buyer personas that fit your current audience. 

Starting Your Website Personalization Journey

Putting your customer first is vital to a thriving business. Website personalization plays a significant role in this. With smart tools like ChatGPT and the AIPRM extension, you can make your website much more personal and engaging.
