Do you think that traffic is the only thing you should focus on
to make more profits? Well, you're wrong. There is one thing you
need to focus on MORE than generating traffic. That is
converting that traffic into buying customers.
Are you serious about marketing online? If so, there is no doubt
you should be split testing if you aren't already!
Do you want to maximize your profits? Then you need to do split
testing. If you don't do that, there is money laying on the
table.
If your site converts 1% of visitors into paying customers and
you make earn $50 on every sale, but spent $40 to make that
sale, you got a profit of only $10.
Now, watch what happens if you could somehow go from converting
1% to 2% of your visitors into customers.
You will get 2 new customers for every 100 visitors, which earns
you $100. This means a 500% profit increase! Yes, because it
costs you the same amount to acquire these 100 visitors (in our
example $40), but instead of generating only 1 customer and
making a $10 profit ($50 - $40 = $10) you are now making 2 sales
for that same traffic.
This means $100 but your costs are still $40, so $100 - $40 =
$60. You've just increased your profit by 500%, without spending
any extra money!
Do you want to know what increase you will have a conversion
ratio of 3%? An incredible 1,000% profit increase!
You can increase your conversion ratio and your profit only by
split run testing. And you can test everything on your site:
Test new headlines, guarantees, graphics, different bonus,
opening paragraphs, popups, popunders, long copy vs short copy.
Just test one element at a time on your page then track and
analize your numbers because you need to know exactly what
result each change on your page had. Did the change that you
made on your page generate more leads or sales? You need to know
what happend with that new headline, guarantee, bonus etc.
I know a free software that makes this marketing process very
easy. It allows you to conduct split run testing of any website
marketing campaign you initiate so you can simultaneously test...
Multiple Sales Letters
Different Ad Copy
Graphic Design Work
Different Price Points
Varying Guarantees
Entire Website Designs
Think about this: if your site converts 2% of visitors into
customers, it also means that 98% are leaving your site without
buying. And this is a good reason why you should be doing split
testing before you spend some time and/or money on advertising
and bringing more traffic to your site.
Want to know more about effective spit testing? I have a Free 30
page Special Report that explains how to test most effectively.
Are you content to let 98% (or even 99%) of your visitors leave
without making a purchase? Do you know why they are leaving your
site?
By boosting site conversion rates you'll get more value out of
all effort and expense you spend driving traffic to your site!
Now, if your site has a low conversion ratio you have to improve
it. So first, improve your conversion ratio, then aggressively
seek new traffic.
