Hey Pat,

Cool site. I was surprised that you said no freebies for the lead generation stage. I’ve been conditioned to think that lead generation must include a freebie of some kind but I get what you’re saying – that I want to test and see if I get opt-ins from the benefits of my product (and not so someone can get a freebie).

Never thought of if that way before. I’ll give it a test and let you know how it goes.

Thanks,

For those who would like to see a visual example of split-testing:

There is a case study on lupa.cz about website optimization. The goal was to increase the number of downloads of a trial and free version of a software product.

The article shows:
- The weekly conversion rate before and after optimization
- The website before and after
- The split-tested graphic elements (3 images and 9 buttons)

Most of Pat’s readers wouldn’t understand the language, so here is a link to Google translation (OK for rough understanding, but sometimes incorrect): http://bit.ly/5nf6nV

Oh no I was referring to the…oh never mind those are called ‘copy’ pages not squeeze pages, my bad. So much terminology involved in blogging.

Okay I’m back on course, sorry to disturb the class

Thanks

Hehe, I’m taking a road trip from east coast to CA mid-December. I’m thinking San Diego will be second half of the trip and Los Angeles first half.

Either way, I loved CA last year and hope to make a move early next Spring. But that thing called “money” is unfortunately somewhat of a deciding factor.

Thanks for stopping by

love the Christmas-theme in the blog header, Pat! (that’s a classic case of listening to your readers….really makes the blog look timely and relevant and inviting…)….
