Performance Best Practices

Optimize your social proof implementation for maximum technical performance and conversion impact.

Technical Performance

Script Loading

  • Load the script asynchronously to prevent blocking page render
  • Place script near the end of the body for optimal loading
  • Use defer attribute for non-critical initializations

Resource Optimization

  • Enable browser caching for static assets
  • Minimize API calls by batching requests
  • Use efficient data structures for message queuing

Animation Performance

  • Use CSS transforms instead of position properties
  • Implement requestAnimationFrame for smooth animations
  • Optimize paint performance with will-change property

Commerce Optimization

Message Timing

  • Show messages during peak engagement periods
  • Adjust frequency based on user behavior
  • Optimize display duration for maximum impact

Message Placement

  • Position messages near relevant call-to-actions
  • Avoid interfering with primary page content
  • Test different positions for optimal engagement

Content Strategy

  • Prioritize high-value conversion events
  • Use dynamic content based on user context
  • Maintain message freshness with regular updates
