Learning Paths

Conversion optimization

Learn about the principles and best practices for setting up a simple AB test and a broader CRO programme

Module purpose

Conversion rate optimization or ‘CRO’ for short, is aimed at getting more from your media investments by increasing leads or sales from visitors to your site. You may know of it as ‘AB testing’ where different versions of a page are served to visitors to see whether conversion rate can be increased.

In this module you will discover why running regular controlled experiments or a CRO programme of structured tests can improve your website conversion rates.

You can use our conversion optimization planner template to prioritize and manage your tests.
