**Audiences** are a way to group your visitors based on their traits, allowing you to show personalized content to the right visitors, at the right time. 

You can create audiences based on different criteria, like location, time and date, how visitors arrive at your site, and other data about your customers.

### Next steps

***

After creating audiences, add [section variants](/section-studio/smart-sections/section-variants.md) with alternate content and styles that are tailored to each audience. Then [assign audiences to section variants](/section-studio/smart-sections/section-variants.md#assign-audiences-to-section-variants) to activate them on your storefront.
