You may have heard of Conversion Optimisation, and Return on Investment.
In this video, we'll quickly run through what Conversion Optimisation is, and what it means
for your business.
An easy way to visualise the concept of Conversion Optimisation is the Sales Funnel.
Let's say you get 100 visitors to your website, at the top of the sales funnel. These visitors
take various paths navigating your website.
Some leave immediately, some look at your products, but don't like what they see, then
leave, some may recommend your website to their friends, and a small percentage will
actually buy what you are selling.
Let's say 2 out of these 100 visitors make a purchase. That gives your website a 2% Conversion
Rate from Visitor to Customer.
Split A/B Testing is a test carried out, usually setup by your web designer or SEO company.
Very simply, we split your website visitors 50/50, with half going to the original page,
and half going to a new version of the page.
The new version of the page may have a different layout, different text for your Call to Action,
or video instead of images.
A Conversion Goal is decided upon, for example, Less Bounces, or higher Sales.
The test is run until you have enough data to determine which of the 2 pages is better
at meeting the Conversion Goal.
Simple adjustments to a Landing or Sales page can often yield great results. For instance,
if you make a change to your website that results in an increase from 2 in 100, up to
3 in 100 visitors making a purchase, that equates to a Sales increase of 50%.
And a 50% sales increase is something most businesses would relish.
In short, Conversion Optimisation can be a very effective method of increasing your Return
on Investment without increasing your usual marketing budget.
