DESCRIPTION
The temu.com homepage had a lot of detail. It utilized thumbnails with meta descriptions and data beneath them. I noticed that many of the items on the homepage were on sale. Sales are a good way to increase user engagement. But I recommend having sales on a dedicated page and instead having your latest or best items available on the homepage because it changes the brand perception. If people only see sales on the homepage, they won’t feel that you run a premium brand. Most people don’t expect premium items to be on sale unless they have become dated.
HISTORY
As of July 2023, the site temu.com has an estimated 252 million monthly views, according to Similar Web.
