Exploring the Spectrum of Convert Experiences

Convert Experiences offers a suite of six distinct types of experiments designed to optimize your website's performance through targeted testing. Each type is engineered to address specific testing needs, from minor tweaks to comprehensive overhauls. Here’s a breakdown of the options available:

  1. A/B Experiments Ideal for testing minor modifications on your web pages, A/B Experiences enable the deployment of different page versions directly from Convert's servers. This method is perfect for alterations in images, text, or layout, utilizing either a visual or developer editor for creation.
  2. Split URL Experiments: When the goal is to test entirely different web pages hosted on your domain, Split URL Experiments come into play. By specifying an original URL and one or more alternative URLs, Convert seamlessly directs a portion of your traffic to each page through JavaScript redirects, allowing you to measure and compare conversion success rates.
  3. Multivariate Experiments (MVT): For those looking to dive deeper into the impact of various page elements, MVT experiments provide the tools to test multiple variations simultaneously. Whether it’s your logo, call-to-action buttons, or background images, MVT leverages a visual or developer editor to pinpoint which changes most significantly influence conversion rates. This type, however, requires a substantial amount of traffic to swiftly identify the most effective combination.
  4. Deployments: Tailored to deliver customized experiences to your audience at the most opportune moments, Deployments can be crafted using either a visual or developer editor. This flexible approach ensures that the right message reaches the right audience exactly when it's most impactful.
  5. A/A Experiments: Before rolling out a full-scale experiment, A/A Experiments offer a trial run by comparing the original page against itself. This method verifies the experimental setup's accuracy over a default period of eight days, ensuring no significant conversion discrepancies are present before launching a comprehensive test.
  6. Multipage Experiments: For a holistic view of the customer journey across multiple pages, Multipage Experiments link variations of different pages to maintain consistency in the user experience. This approach is invaluable for funnel testing, ensuring that visitors receive a coherent experience throughout their navigation.

By leveraging these diverse testing types, Convert Experiences equips you with the tools necessary to fine-tune your website, enhancing user engagement and conversion rates through data-driven decision-making.
