The alternative to personalisation is not a bad website. It is a good website written for the average of everyone who visits, which is a person who does not exist.
One page for everyone is cheaper to write and easier to keep true, and for a site with a single clear audience it is often the right answer. The cost shows up when your visitors want different things. A developer evaluating an integration and a marketing lead worried about budget land on the same paragraph, and it was written to avoid alienating either, so it commits to neither.
The usual fix is more pages. A page for developers, a page for each campaign, a page per sector. That works, and it scales badly: every page is another thing to keep accurate, and visitors still have to find the right one, which most of them will not do.
Varying the content inside one page inverts that. You write the pieces once, each aimed at one reader with one concern, and the section a visitor sees is chosen from what you have written. Adding an audience means writing a few more pieces rather than building and maintaining another page.
The honest tradeoff: you give up knowing exactly what every visitor saw, in exchange for more of them seeing something meant for them.
