Abstract In this study, we consider the impact of push notifications on user conversion and retention within digital communities using time-series analysis and A/B testing. Our research explores how personalization, timing, and frequency of notifications affect user behavior. We compare personalized and generic notifications through A/B testing and track long-term engagement trends through time-series analysis. Results The outcome of personalized notifications is to boost conversion rates. The optimal timing of a notification, while users are engaged, matters most. Over-notification increases the possibility of notification fatigue, hence lower retention rates. In addition, lag effect research has shown that the effect of push notification on retention grows with time. Based on the recommendations of this study, an optimal mix of personalization, timing, and frequency needs to be balanced for maximal effectiveness. The limitations include concentration on a particular user base. Further research is required across other diverse platforms. Future studies could investigate multi-channel strategies and AI-driven personalization.
