Conversion rate optimization

Conversion rate optimization FAQ.

How is a conversion rate calculated?
The number of conversions is divided by the number of unique sessions when conversions take place every visit. If visitors convert only once, such as subscribing to a newsletter, the number of conversions is divided by the number of unique users.
 
What are macro conversions and micro conversions?
A macro conversion is the primary goal for the site, like completing a purchase. A micro conversion is a supplemental goal, such as clicking through an offer to a product page. Micro conversions hopefully lead to a macro conversion.
 
What elements or variables should I test to improve conversion rates?
Best practices suggest testing elements that appear to be barriers to micro or macro conversion — such as imagery, messaging, and design — that can actually have a positive impact.
 
What is an A/B test and how does it improve conversions?
An A/B test allows you to experiment with two versions of the same page. Typically, one variable is tested each time. This test helps to determine which variables lead to higher engagement.
 
How do I choose which pages to optimize?
Typically, CRO service providers will start with the pages that generate the most traffic or those that are closer to purchase actions. A page should have sufficient traffic volume to be able to make a determination from your test.
 
What if a test doesn’t provide clear results?
You can still draw insights from tests that don’t provide statistically meaningful results. For example, your test variations could be too similar or your testing hypothesis might not be compelling enough.
