Conversion Rate Optimisationthe scientific marketing revenue boost

Conversion rate optimisation (CRO): Bringing science and discipline to continuous improvement of your website’s conversion potential (against key performance indicators)
aka: making your website sell, effective web design
Almost synonymous with: website testing, website planning, persuasion architecture, continuous improvement, split testing, user testing, wire-framing, calls-to-action
Not to be confused with: website programming, graphic web design, procrastination

There are two ways to increase website sales: get more people onto your site or simply make better use of those already on your site

A website can look fantastic but still not sell. A website can be technically perfect but still not sell. It can be both, yet still not sell. Why? Because sales and marketing is not incorporated into the web design. Just because you offer the ability to buy online does not mean your customers will buy. Just because you have a contact form doesn’t mean people will fill it out. You need to persuade people to do it, and website testing should be the first step.

identifying problems: user testing and analytics

Rather than identifying all the problems potential customers are having in using/not buying from the site, the priority in CRO is to identify the biggest problems and implement easy rather than perfect solutions. That way changes will actually get made, rather than simply being added to an already too long to-do list.

• We identify the biggest problems – you get a fast return on investment
• A scientific approach – no more guesswork
• Going beyond the obvious – heatmaps and advanced analytics
• Getting under customers’ skin – user testing and direct feedback

making changes: split testing

In CRO all website changes are tested before being implemented fully across the site.  Proposed changes are shown to a proportion of the site’s users through split testing and each version’s conversion rate is measured against the original. We can then discover which variation performs better to statistical significance and the effect that this will have on your overall conversion rate!
