Key Take-Aways

• Remove Clutter – focus on key goals all the time – Remove any obstacles

• Provide lots of visual feedback – Users know that actions have been successful

• Adhere to affordance rules – make them obvious– Big Buttons, Clear Large Links

• Anticipate and Answer questions upfront – Embed as part of user experience

• Knit USPs in copy and images of site– Emphasise all your differentiators

Website Optimisation

• Dynamically Testi key elements of site– Test Copy, Calls to Action, Images, Placement– The $300,000,000 Button

• Both Split (A/B) and Multi-Variate Test– Google Website Optimiser or Proprietary tools

• Define and set up conversion points– Need to track and measure user actions

• Clear calls to action significantly augment optimisation goals– Don’t force user to think – TELL THEM WHAT TO DO

Test Process

• Never stop testing and tracking user actions on website• A/B Split Testing

– Define specific site goals (sale, sign-up etc..)– Test two specific pages (typically high volume landing pages)– Commercial tools (Vertster) or Google Optimiser – Monitor which test is performing better– Use Variable rate or throttle testing to vary the percentage of traffic

that gets routed to the various pages• Multi-Variate testing

– Enables variable testing of elements within single pages– Different copy text, form layouts and even landing page images and

background colours together– Track combinations that achieve predetermined goals
