Summary Peep Laja
Bullet point summary by Theo van der Zee:
- Using a list of ‘100+ conversion checkpoints’ doesn’t work, you need a strategy first to get results.
- Key metrics to keep track of: testing velocity, number of winning tests, uplift per experiment.
- Without knowing what your users want, you simply can’t optimize a website: stop testing bullshit.
- No amount of persuasion will save your website if it doesn’t work on the users’ browser.
- The Fogg Behavior Model maps out motivation, vs. ability vs. triggers for intended behavior.
- Identify where money is leaking, and learn about what users are (not) doing on those pages.
- Heatmaps might make you liked more by your CEO, but don’t necessarily offer much insights.
- Stop doing multiple choice in surveys, and ask users as soon as possible after converting.
- Determine what friction they experienced, and what was their general shopping experience.
- Poll users during checkout: “What’s holding you back from making a purchase right now”.
- What users say and what users do are often entirely different.
