What’s Stopping You?

Yes. Well, welcome to the VZINE this week and I've got something very special to share with you this if you're even remotely a little bit techy. But before we get started let's just tell you it's been a really good week in Greece and I know that you guys are having a heatwave in England at the moment, while we've just got a load of snow coming from Athens. So, that's something to look forward to.

But I seem to have caught the sun none-the-less. I'm a little bit rosy today because I've been sitting in the sun all week. I try and get out every day. Go and sit down my favourite cafe, look at the sea, and have a hot chocolate, and I love that very much. So, yeah let's get on with the show shall we? I'll tell you all I've got to tell you.

So, one of the most powerful things you can do when you've got a website is to split test the key pages and the idea is that if you're not getting very much traffic you would just want to split test one particular thing, so, say the headline or the colour of the call to action button or something like that but you only need one thing at a time.

Now, it used to be quite tricky to do this, you used to have to set up two different versions of your page and then split the traffic between them and you'd generally have to pay for some kind of software tool but the good news is that Google Analytics have now.

I think they've bought Optimise, which is something I used to use a lot, because it's all free now and so if you are able to put a bit of Google Analytics code on your website, which most people can manage how to do, then you can also add a bit of Google Optimise code to your website too and it goes in the header tag, if you know what that is, or just in your general scripts box if you've got a theme that's got a place where you've got a place where you can add scripts and it goes in exactly the same place as your Facebook, Pixel, and all the bits of code like that.

So, you can send it to your developer, if you've got a developer, but the trick is just to get the Analytics code and the Optimise code onto every page of your website. Then you go and log into your Google Optimise account and you link it up to your Analytics account, which is all quite self explanatory, I managed to puzzle it out very quickly and then you can click on any page on your website and you can click on the little Chrome extension, which is Google Optimise in Chrome extension, and you can just choose an element of your page to change. It's absolutely magic!

And, so I would start with a headline or start with a page with a picture or without a picture or you can split test two different pictures or you can split test the call to action button colour. All different kinds of things.

So, you're looking to do A B split testing and just test one element on each important page. It is so exciting, I can't tell you, because the only thing is that you are going to end up with a page that performs, and the variant that you don't like the most will be the one that performs the best.

So,
