Why

Have you got ideas every minutes for changes in your website ? Does your boss coming with changes on your company’s website that looks irrelevant ? Do you wonder if this button would convert (CRO) better in green or with another wording ?

Good news ! Google Optimize is now available for free to everyone who needs to test and validate (or not) assumptions !

More, it will take you about 15 minutes to set up some AB test, redirect test (A.K.A. Split URL test) or MVTest on your website !

Let’s set up a test, run it and analyse your results (and finally demonstrate your boss that having this creepy red arrow on that button doesn’t convert more).
