Next time, when the customer returns, they are offered a specific array of products based on their browsing history and previous search. This also helps the Amazon to determine information about the diverse trends about the people who make similar purchases. For instance, if 70% of people who bought a Samsung Galaxy smartphone also bought a power bank, then the Amazon will automatically recommend the power bank to the person buying a Samsung Galaxy smartphone in the future on the basis of the purchase trend of people.
