What is a User Segment ?
A user segment refers to a subset of users within a larger group who share common characteristics, behaviors, or attributes. In various industries and contexts, user segmentation is a valuable practice to better understand and cater to the diverse needs and preferences of different user groups. By dividing users into segments, organizations can create targeted strategies, personalized experiences, and more effective communication.
