How to Use AB Testing to Transform Your Wimpy Sales Page Into a Profit Monster By Tim Robinson At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

If you have been in the internet marketing business for any length of time you should understand that your sales pages must have a high conversion rate for success. Your sales page must entice the reader to open up their wallet and get out their credit card.

There are many successful sales pages but most likely they did not start out that way. A truly successful sales page should always be a work in progress. What worked wonderfully a few weeks ago may not be converting at a rate that is satisfactory now.

To super charge your sales pages you should be AB testing them. AB testing, also known as split testing is a process whereby you create multiple sales pages for the same product or service and track which of the pages has the higher conversion rate.

In order to be a successful internet professional you must convert visitors to customers. The internet is very impersonal in that you do not meet a prospective customer face to face or even have a conversation with them on the phone. All you have is your sales page to persuade a potential customer to buy. AB testing can be the difference between a sales page that converts one or two sales per week and one that converts 10, 20, 50 or more sales per day.

Here is an example of how I AB test my sales pages:

1.) Creation

I begin with a new sales page that I have created and then create two alternate pages. On these alternate pages I change a single attribute. On the first I may change the headline and on the second I reword the first paragraph.

2.) Traffic

Once the pages are ready I start sending equal amounts of traffic to each page. In most cases I run the test for 7 days.

3.) And the Winner Is

The page that had the best conversion rate was the one on which I changed the headline. This is the one that I will keep. The other two I keep in a folder on my computer so that I can review them occasionally.

4.) Repeat

This time I start with the page that had the best conversion rate in my previous AB test. Again I write 2 new pages and change a single attribute. This time I will not change the headline because it was the winner in the last text. Then I run my process again.

The key to developing an exceptionally powerful sales page is constant testing. When I have tested all elements of the page I begin the process again. This constant cycle of testing will increase both sales and profitability.

If you are not AB testing then you basically saying “I don’t care about how many sales I make.” If you are saying something similar to that statement, you do not belong in the internet marketing business. Now that you understand the process you can start testing and start creating a profit pulling monster where you wimpy sales page used to be.
