Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Wikimedia Technology’s Search Platform team ran an A/B test from April 7 to April 25, 2016 to see how much our users care about the position of the result vs the actual content of the result by swapping the second and third search results. We found that position 2 had a higher clickthrough rate than position 3 in both groups, but the clickthrough rate of the 3rd result was higher in the test group than in the control group. We also found that test group users were less likely to click on the 2nd result first than the control group and were more likely to click on the 3rd result first. Based on the results of this analysis, we think that both position and quality matter in user behavior, but with different weights. Further experiments are needed to figure out the quantitative relationship between user behavior and these two factors. |
