Our hypothesis is that a percentage of these leads ultimately convert to sales. B2B marketers are spending more than 25 percent of their budgets in the development, delivery and promotion of content, according to a recent survey run by the CMO...
No one outside of Google knows for sure, but my initial hypothesis, since rollout, still seems to be plausible. In the aftermath of that rollout, webmasters that were affected are now desperate to recover.
Our initial hypothesis was that visitors weren't getting passed the product pages so we were going to have to focus our optimization strategy there. How you think users interact with your website can be very different from reality.
You know that the cost of not testing is much higher than the knowledge you gain from a test that didn't prove your hypothesis correct. Perhaps one of the most frequent questions I get asked when presenting testing hypotheses and ideas to clients...
The best way to handle that is to work on understanding your audience, creating a hypothesis about what resonates with that audience, and then using that messaging not just on your PPC ads, but across your site.
Every test must begin with a clear, specific, and informed hypothesis. Many times there isn’t a hypothesis because it is easy enough to simply write an ad and set it live to see how it does, and a forward thinking hypothesis is overlooked.
My initial hypothesis was validated when calculating the conversion rate and cost per lead of each campaign. But to reap the benefits you must understand how to test and optimize the channel. One of the targeting options for Twitter advertising...
Perhaps one of the most overlooked aspects of ad testing is formulating a hypothesis. Some may choose to skip the hypothesis because it is easier to create a few different ad or landing page variations, set them live, play the waiting game and hope...
This is why you need to build hypothesis with real data—and then test those hypothesis with an A/B test (don’t forget to run an A/A test to calibrate your software). You know you’ve hit the big time when you end up in a feature article in Wired.
Create your hypothesis, or in plain language, decide what your goal is. It isn't uncommon and due to the structure of split testing, your visitors will not know which page is the control vs.the hypothesis, so while this isn’t double-blind, you are...
Hypothesis: A landing page with an image will have a higher conversion rate than a landing page with no image. It’s now clear that the treatment page performed much better and proved my original hypothesis that a landing page with a preview image...
One hypothesis is that visitors staying for too long are probably lost and need of help and unable to make up their minds. But how do you measure customer happiness when it comes to the web? Search marketers are all about metrics – using metrics to...
You deliberately check the data to see if it disproves your hypothesis. Every test must start with a hypothesis. Split testing (in the context of digital marketing) is a powerful way to trial two or more options for an element of your campaign and...
Additionally, if you’re running any type of test, be it landing page or ad, send out a few reports on test progress each week, including the hypothesis of why you're running the test and how statistically significant the results are so far.
The data supports the hypothesis that paid search for B2B is declining in usage and effectiveness. I’m not one to make announcements like this, and usually titles like this only mean the opposite. How many times have we seen the famous “SEO is Dead...
That strategy, or hypothesis, is built upon a foundation of clues. Industry relevance, influence, and brand trust all play a factor. Social media has a greater impact on search engine optimization (SEO) as well, both on the website and pointing to...
You can create a hypothesis about ranking and the tools make you more confident to measure and make changes. One of the themes of the industry panel I moderated at BrightEdge Share 12 was whether Google is still "a Black Box"… and whether marketers...
We tested a simple hypothesis: CTAs with the highest click-through rates (CTRs) also have the highest conversion rates and conversions per 1,000 impressions. It's clear that our hypothesis was wrong – while CTRs may be an indication of conversion...
My pre-analysis hypothesis was “yes” based on the rationale that it’s the combination of keywords that matter, not the order in which they are expressed. To test my hypothesis, I analyzed six campaigns in two different verticals.
Your hypothesis (e.g. Hypothesis Every test starts with a hypothesis that you're trying to prove or refute. The hypothesis is a short sentence that summarizes what you’re trying to prove and should include the tested variable and the success metric...
