<<<< EPISODE SUMMARY>>>>

We start with our guest speaker, Khalid Saleh, who explains his LinkedIn profile’s message that there are no growth hacks in marketing. Beginning the main topic of CRO and UX, Khalid explains there are two parts to CRO, the functional aspect and the emotional aspect and the importance of focusing on each. He goes on about the psychology of human emotions and how to get into the mind of a user. Khalid then shares a few CRO stories each with different lessons on learning the user’s behavior. Khalid ends with comparing CRO and SEO and that at the end of the day the goal is to increase sales and how understanding who your competition is important in increasing your conversion rate.

In the next segment, Mordy shares an article that showed the % of time certain SERP features appeared alongside Featured Snippets on the same results page. Mordy clarified that the article was not meant to say that if a certain feature was appearing with your Featured Snippet that you will automatically lose traffic, but rather that you should investigate further to see if the other feature is really competing with the user’s attention. Each case is different as some features will share the same intent while others will not.
