What is Split Testing?
A/B Split Testing helps business owners determine which website element is more likely to produce a desired response from their prospects.
You should constantly be trying new things with your landing pages to see what converts and what doesn’t. You could be losing out on major profits if you don’t split test your landing page. The key is to only change one thing at a time.
You can test, for example:
• Two headlines to see which performs better. You simply make two versions of the same page, with the only difference being the headline, so you are more likely to pinpoint EXACTLY what is causing the change in response. The key is to only change one thing at a time.
Some of The Items You Can Test on Your Website
- Headlines Try different versions with a small change to each one
- Subheadlines: Do the same with your subheadlines as you do with your headline.
- Product Offer: Try different calls to action.
- Colors: Test background colors, headline colors, etc. but test one color element at a time.
- Fonts: Test different fonts in headlines and in sales copy text but again, test them one at a time.
- Graphics: Test different product images, guarantee graphics, website images, etc.
- Price: Test different price points for your product.
How you can split test:
