Ever Hear of Split Testing?
Rather than guess, it is better to measure empirically what page design works best. This is why we conduct split testing for pages.
As the name suggests, we will design two versions of the same page and program your website so that half your visitors interact with one version while the other half interacts with the other.
The page that garners the best conversion rate points the way to further design changes until we—as well as you— are convinced that we have achieved the design that results in the most conversions.
Split testing is very important for your landing pages, as these are the main pages of your website and will typically have a layout that differs from your homepage. For example, features such as sidebars might be removed to reduce distraction and allow more room for content.
Also, once you know which pages on your website test positive for the most visits, you can direct your AdWords and PPC campaigns toward them, thereby spending your advertising dollars more wisely.
