Have You Started Testing Yet?

You’re a savvy online business owner and you know the value of pulling customers to your website.  Chances are, you’ve already invested in some sort of AdWords or pay-per-click referral system.  Good!  You’re bringing customers to your door.  Now let’s look at the next step – getting them through your door.  The quality of your landing page makes the difference between wasted advertising dollars and well-spent ones.  Some landing page testing can help you refine your landing page to make sure visitors keep moving toward conversion.

Take A Targeted Approach to Landing Page Testing

Many people fail to benefit from new technology or ideas simply because they feel intimidated by systems they don’t understand.

Institute a Culture of Testing

I love the idea of instituting a culture of testing, because it implies that in order to achieve success, you must commit your business completely to the idea of continual testing over the long term rather than simply running a few tests to see what happens and giving up if you don’t see immediate results.
Developing a culture of testing also demonstrates a commitment to determining the best practices for your business as an individual entity. The term “best practices” can be deceptive, leading companies to believe that what works well for giant corporations will automatically work well for every business.
