A/B Testing Idea #16 - Enable the possibility to filter options
Description
Adding a sorting option will allow visitors to see the products that interest them without having to spend too much time and effort working out differences in features and costs. The easier and 'smoother' you can make your site experience, the more comfortable and confident your visitors will feel.
