This document introduces conversion rate optimization (CRO) and provides an evaluation framework for CRO. It discusses that CRO involves quantitative analysis, qualitative research, and testing on a client's website to improve conversions. A critical analysis framework is then presented covering six factors: simplicity, relevance, clutter, unique selling propositions, reassurance, and deadlines. Each factor explains how it can ease persuasion or ease of use and provides references to support optimizing for that factor. Finally, the document lists three tools used in CRO: quantitative analysis, qualitative research, and testing.

Editor's Notes
- An illustration of the challenge we often face at the start of a CRO project…..
- The ongoing process of analysing and refining key pages on your website to increase the number of visitors who carry out something that is of value to you. The process uses both quantitative tools (e.g. web analytics) and qualitative methods (e.g. user testing) to gather data and develop insights that can be robustly tested.
- These are the criteria that act as the “rules of thumb” we use to help us evaluate a website and make recommendations for change.
- This is sometimes referred to as “conversion coupling”.
- This is sometimes referred to as “conversion coupling”.
- Something which will help you to evaluate your own landing pages. A landing page score card (USPs, Clarity, Relevance, Timely, Anxiety, Clutter…..) Just let us know if you’d like one of these simple scorecards sent through to you so you can use it for yourself.
- More than 70 tools within the “testing and optimization” tool box. Within the overall landscape there are 1,900 tools. And this is not exhaustive. Many of which could be deemed to aid “CRO”.
