Ad placement & targeting
Recommendation feed
How it may influence
A feed chosen from your past activity shows more of the same, which can feel like everyone is buying it.
Evidence to check
- Is the item labelled as an ad or sponsored?
- Search for the same item yourself — what else comes up?
Useful step
Compare with at least one option you found by searching yourself.
When this is reasonable
Recommendations can save time when they match what you were already looking for.
Tamil Nadu examples (illustrative)
- Online sale: the same "Sponsored" product appears in every app you open.
- Course call: ads for the course keep following you after one search.
- Showroom: a "Recommended for you" banner on the dealer's website.
