What company/person do you recommend for improving conversion rates on landing pages?
-
Hello! I'm looking for specific recommendations of companies with whom you have been "Tickled pink at fantastic conversion improvement results!"
I'm the customer for this service.
I seek a page-level review of a specific area of my site. I'm looking for output of specific recommendations for improving conversion rates. I want to avoid paying for a "generic best practices report" with one or two ideas for my site sprinkled in.
I realize that I will be called to complete proper input into the process. I am ready to do my share with the level of detail required.
So, if you have an enthusiastic recommendation, please share. Details are appreciated. Most important, please tell me why this company made you very happy.
I sincerely look forward to SEOMozzer input. Thank you kindly, Loren

What is the cost for something like this?

We sent them URLs for pages that we wanted to improve along with our objectives and concerns. They reviewed those pages in advance of a small webinar where we both looked at the pages on screen.
They told us what they would change and marked up the screen with suggestions. All of this was recorded so we did not have to take notes and could watch the recording later as many times as we want.
They started at home page and gave us comments... went onto sales page and gave us comments.... went into shopping cart and gave us comments.
We looked at sample pages from other websites to compare how others have optimzied. We looked at what sitetuners is doing on their own website to see how they optimize.
After this meeting we spent a few days making changes then had another webinar to review.
We did this on pages that receive a very small number of conversions per month where it could take a very long time to get enough data for meaningful decisions. We applied similar changes to other parts of our site and believe that we are making more sales. (This in my opinion is one of the most valuable things about the service. When you have high value conversions that don't occur very often you can get expert advice on how to optimize the page - without letting an A/B test run for months. Surely their guesses are going to be a lot better than mine!)

For small one-on-one consulting, they wont be the go to people. They do large long term engagements over long periods of time. They would be more of a free resource for webinars (which are fantastic) that can pretty much teach you everything you would need to know to do it yourself.

Hello Brad and EGOL,
Site Tuners popped up several times as a recommendation. I've given them a call and chatted with Jay (sales). I could not get a strong feel for the actual process. I was led back to the site during the call (which I studied carefully before I contacted them) which did not offer more information than I already understood.
Maybe I was "off my game" during the call.
Brad, since you have used them before an were happy with Site Tuners, I'd like to ask you a few questions. Please indulge me.
-
What were the best 2-3 things about the experience/process?
-
What were the measurable results?
-
What were things where they could improve (or rubbed you the wrong way) in the process?
And, I must ask because personal interaction sometimes makes/breaks the experience: **Were there specific people that really "wowed" you in the process? ** I'd love to know because in the call, the sales person referred to the "team" and wouldn't talk about individuals and strengths/availability. While I understand that sales approach, it's very much about the person to whom I am assigned.
**Thanks for the details. ** Follow up wisdom would be wonderful. Kindly, Loren

Great suggestion Brent. I am somewhat familiar with http://www.optimizely.com/ -- who seems to be a competitor to http://visualwebsiteoptimizer.com/ .
Do you have input on why one may be better than the other? Kindly, Loren

Thanks Ryan. I've queued up time to study some webinars. I called them to chat about the research partnership. I'm unsure it's their core business practice for one-on-one efforts. Yet, I'll let you know what happens when their sales people reach me.

I second this. We have used Site Tuners a few times now with great results.
Each time we did a 90 min express review and got a full 1 on 1 conference call with a landing page optimisation specialist. The call is recorded and they will help you with (a few) follow up emails to clarify any points. They even reviewed our on-site changes after the call as part of the 90 min package. Well worth it.

Go to MarketingExperiments.com. They are the sister company/research arm of Marketing Sherpa. I have been in the industry for a long time and they are the best conversion/landing page optimization firm around.
You can browse through their library of webinars (100's of them) where they present case studies, tests and results every month from random conversion optimization projects. You can learn a ton by watching their webinars.

That is my expertise so I never have had to hire one. The most basic thing to remember is
-
MAKE IT AS EASY AS POSSIBLE TO SEPARATE YOUR VISITOR FROM HIS MONEY OR INFORMATION
-
ASSUME IT IS THE FIRST TIME THE PERSON VIEWING YOUR WEBSITE HAS EVER USED A COMPUTER
Follow that to start with and you will double conversions. That was free the rest well...:)
"I seek a page-level review of a specific area of my site. "
send me something to look at

I have had great luck with http://visualwebsiteoptimizer.com/ but they are more of an A/B testing company. What I found useful is their blog. I think you will find your answers in there.

Redirect Management on Headless Wordpress w/ React Front End
Hello everyone, As Headless Wordpress becomes more and more popular, it becomes more complicated to manage and track 301 redirects. I'm reaching out for advice on this. Our main issue right now, is that after migrating from Drupal to a Headless Wordpress/React platform we lost the ability to track, manage, and view traffic analytics for users hitting those redirects. This was something we were able to do in Drupal. Example: If we have a redirect in place we could see how many times in the past x number of days that redirect was hit by users attempting to access the old URL. Unfortunately, Yoast Premium, has been helpful with other SEO needs, but this is one that it is not able to manage. Anyone have any ideas, experience, or thoughts on this issue? Thanks for your time

Conversion Rate Benchmarking and Optimization
Hey everyone! I run the marketing for an ecommerce marketplace and we're doing good on the SEO front of things, with 60%+ of our traffic coming in via search and we're ranking for some competitive keywords. I'm really curious about the conversion rate though. Despite intensive googling, I've not been able to find a rough benchmark for conversion rates. Our conversion rate is about 1.2%, increasing as we continue to do more optimization work with regards to the site's usability. While we track other forms of conversions, the 1.2% conversion rate is for bookings through the site, which is our main source of revenue. Does anyone have a reference guide for conversion rates, particularly for ecommerce marketplaces? I'd like to know if we're doing ok or really bad, and also to take reference from other similar sites to improve our conversion. Thanks!!

Customer journey / customer drop off
Hi All, I would like to understand how visitors navigate through my site and find out where the main drop out areas are (i.e. what pages / sections of the site do users leave on). I will then be segmenting by mobile, tablet, new visitor, returning etc. to see how the various subsets of users behave. To do this I generally do the following: Identify main sections of the (ecomm) site: homepage, category pages, product pages, cart, checkout 1, checkout 2, checkout x, payment confirmation. For each section above I either use a segment to isolate that section of the site, either by regex or a simple page selector and apply to the Audience >> Overview report and record the resulting session count. OR I filter the Behaviour >> Site Content >> All Pages report to isolate the various site sections and record unique pageviews. I then plot these figures horizontally under a heading for each section of the site representing a flow between the pages of the site with a calculation showing the difference between each section of the site which represents user drop off. Hope that makes sense. What I am interested to know is, do you have any better suggestions to the process laid about above. Do you see any issues with this process?

Is putting an email address in the page title a good idea?
As our Contact Us page title was a little short I added in sales@example.com So "Contact us : Sales@example.com" We don't get a lot of spam and it hasn't noticeable increased since we did this. Tynt suggests that a reasonable number of people have copied and pasted the email - presumably to contact us Is it worth experimenting with further or a waste of time?

How Do I Create a Google Analytics Dashboard for My Designer To Monitor Landing Page A/B Testing
Hello All, We recently started doing some "AdWords Experiments" using A/B testing of our search landing pages. My web design team does not have access to our AdWords account, but they do have "user" access to our Google Analytics account. What I need to figure out how to do is setup an easy dashboard (or custom report) that will show them at a quick glance how the two versions of their page are performing in terms of: Goal Completions (Conversions) where the specific page is the entrance/landing page. Bounce Rate Time spent on site where the specific page is the entrance/landing page. Pages viewed where the specific page is the entrance/landing page. Possibly a way to see the most popular page visited 'next' after starting on the specific entrance/landing page Anything else that might be useful The two URLs would be like: http://www.domain.com/search/testa/

How to track PPC conversions?
I use both adwords and Microsoft Adcenter. I am looking to be able to track my conversions from each PPC site. I do not have a "Thank You" or "Check Out" page that I can tag because any sales that I make are through clicks on a link that goes offsite to an affiliate company that I receive commission from. However, the link on my site is a "Buy Now" button, so to get some idea of which source is giving me better conversions I'd like to know whether adcenter or adwords is sending more people that end up clicking this link. Canb anyone suggest a way or a program to set up in this manner? Thanks in advance for your help!

Ideal product page conversion/retention rate for eCommerce sites
Hi SEOmoz-ers, I was wondering if anyone has data regarding product page abandonment rate (% of potential customers that leave the site after seeing product pages) for websites like Overstock, REI or Zappos? As you may know the above mentioned sites do an exceptional job with product pages. It would be helpful to know what some of the leaders in this space are achieving in terms of conversion rate. What is your personal opinion about this? Thanks,
