How long should I experiment with sample data before going live with changes on my Shopify store?

There is no one-size-fits-all answer to your question. The duration of your sample data experiment will depend on the type of changes you plan to make to your Shopify store.
A week of data collection might suffice for minor changes, such as adjusting the placement of buttons or the color of certain elements. However, for significant changes such as redesigning your store layout, experts recommend testing for at least 3 to 6 weeks to gather accurate and reliable data that reflects the impact of the changes.
PRO TIP:
Use the Simple Sample Data app by Egnition to easily and quickly generate sample data for your development Shopify store. Whether it's products with images, customer orders, customers, or smart and custom collections you want to generate, the Simple Sample Data app has you covered with all kinds of dummy data at hand.
