Hi
Yeah, I have used quite a few tools.
My personal favourite is HP autonomy, you get the full management team, they help set up the test, do the analysis, suggest tests etc. It's a wonderful service, but it comes with a high price.
Something similar which is slightly cheaper is www.optimizely.com again these are more the enterprise end but do offer a free 30-day trial. It might be worth looking into these two, they may offer a self-service option.
Some more reasonable price platforms that target mid-size companies.
One of my clients I have just taken on uses unbounce and while I haven't yet manage to use their solution. I did get one of their reps at Mozcon to show me the platform - looking forward to using it. Seems like a very very good platform for the price.
With most of this software it's all about what you do. You have the find the test, set them up and analyse them, but so long as your putting in good tests you will get great results.
If you use the Adobe stack they offer A/B testing suite.
Also, there is Maxymiser its been a few years since I used it, but was good at the time and it's probably evolved since.
There are loads of options to choose from. If you use a platform like Shopify or Wordpress it might be worth while seeing which ones of these integrates with your current site to make your life easier.While this article from Mashable is pretty old it does cover some good platforms and some I've never heard of but might be worth checking out: http://mashable.com/2015/01/30/ab-testing-tools/
Thanks

Try this, with this you can do the same with Google Content Experiments without creating multiple pages. You do everything through JavaScript: https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/analyticsjs/experiments
It's unfortunately a lesser known feature of Content Experiments, although I would suggest to start using Google Optimize in the future.

Hi Jaume,
Thanks for your response!
But other than google and other than creating two separate pages is it possible via other method and tool?
Thanks!

Google is one of the best tools for what you want to do, but i think you have to create two versions of the page, Greetings

Sudden Indexation of "Index of /wp-content/uploads/"
Hi all, I have suddenly noticed a massive jump in indexed pages. After performing a "site:" search, it was revealed that the sudden jump was due to the indexation of many pages beginning with the serp title "Index of /wp-content/uploads/" for many uploaded pieces of content & plugins. This has appeared approximately one month after switching to https. I have also noticed a decline in Bing rankings. Does anyone know what is causing/how to fix this? To be clear, these pages are **not **normal /wp-content/uploads/ but rather "index of" pages, being included in Google. Thank you.

Can you have a /sitemap.xml and /sitemap.html on the same site?
Thanks in advance for any responses; we really appreciate the expertise of the SEOmoz community! My question: Since the file extensions are different, can a site have both a /sitemap.xml and /sitemap.html both siting at the root domain? For example, we've already put the html sitemap in place here: https://www.pioneermilitaryloans.com/sitemap Now, we're considering adding an XML sitemap. I know standard practice is to load it at the root (www.example.com/sitemap.xml), but am wondering if this will cause conflicts. I've been unable to find this topic addressed anywhere, or any real-life examples of sites currently doing this. What do you think?

Homepage/Root domain de-indexed by Google
This morning I discovered that the homepage/root domain of our company site, http://www.collegeplus.org/, has been de-indexed by Google and Bing. Out IT dept. is claiming it's our fault because we changed the meta title on our homepage. But they will not give me access to GWT to see if there's any issues. I believe the issue lies within our robots.txt file - http://www.collegeplus.org/robots.txt I also don't believe we're suffering a penalty because all of our tier 2 pages are still indexed when any type of branded search is performed. We don't do things that can get a site de-indexed like this. Any ideas on what the issue may be? Or at least something to convince our IT dept. that simply changing a meta title won't get your homepage totally de-indexed? Thanks.

URL Rewrite
We are trying to convince a client to do a massive rewrite from all URL's looking like this: "www.company.com/category/categoryId=82374" to something like "www.company.com/womens/jackets/rain" How would you describe the importance and impact of doing URL rewrites to an ecommerce site? What evidence/research can we share with them to convince them it is worth the time and effort to do?
