While data and trend analyses are important elements in designing engaging web pages or email broadcasts, A\/B testing provides practical, tangible evidence of your most impactful communications techniques.\r\n\r\nModern online metrics and analytics also create convenient evaluation information, so you will accurately assess your A\/B testing. With analytics, you can easily monitor key metrics:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>how many people were exposed to each version<\/li>\r\n \t<li>how long they interacted and engaged<\/li>\r\n \t<li>what percentage completed the intended task and converted<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nAn A\/B test takes a significant amount of guesswork out of communications. For example, if you think of a new fundraising approach that could improve your organization's revenue stream, you can set up an A\/B test and then monitor the data.\r\n\r\nIf you\u2019re right and the new option gets better results, you can move forward with your new plan. If the original technique still performs better, you can continue with your regular routine and think of different approaches in the future.\r\n\r\nUltimately, A\/B testing helps you make decisions based on data. This way you know when a particular tactic or campaign is working or, more importantly, when one is failing.\r\n\r\nSince every organization is different, don\u2019t assume that what worked for others will automatically work for you. When you A\/B test your activities and content, experiment with different ideas. This is useful because sometimes a small change can make a big difference in the results you get.\r\n<h2>Common Areas to A\/B Test<\/h2>\r\nWhile not exhaustive, the following list presents several common areas where communicators use A\/B testing:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><strong>Headlines and subheadings<\/strong>\r\nWhether the \u201ctitles\u201d on a webpage, headlines for a piece of content, or the subject line of your email, you may want to experiment with these to see if small changes make a difference in engagement rates.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Copy<\/strong>\r\nCopy is simply the text that you have written in your communications materials. While copy can include the words and text itself, copy can also include the location of your text. Presenting two options and seeing which version is more engaging and\/or converts more people could be an area to explore.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Form design\r\n<\/strong>When you look at your forms and the fields to be filled out, think about the number of fields and the information requested to see what potential leads submit and when completion rates drop significantly.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Calls to action\r\n<\/strong>As marketers, having compelling calls to action is critical to getting leads to convert. Testing a variety of options provides data on which words deliver the best results. Here\u2019s an article explaining <a style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\" href=\"https:\/\/knowledge.hubspot.com\/cta\/a\/b-test-your-calls-to-action-ctas\"><strong>how you can test CTAs using Hubspot<\/strong><\/a><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Images\r\n<\/strong>Like calls to action, you can test different images and image types. For example, try different photos to see which one(s) capture your audience\u2019s interest more. You might even explore different types of imagery, e.g., photos, icons, avatars, emojis, and so on.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Colours\r\n<\/strong>And finally, sometimes colour can have an impact in how your target audience behaves. Testing contrasting colours, complementary colours, or brighter colours can often provide insights as to what catches your target audience\u2019s attention and what they prefer.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nFor more A\/B testing ideas, read <a href=\"https:\/\/optinmonster.com\/8-ab-tests-to-run-on-your-popups-to-get-more-email-subscribers\"><strong>60 A\/B Testing Examples to Get You More Conversions<\/strong><\/a>.\r\n<h2 class=\"page-break-before\">How to Conduct an A\/B Test<\/h2>\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li><strong>Gather insights\r\n<\/strong>Before starting your split tests, gather any information you have about your customers, donors, or other audience members (as the case may be). This can include both direct observations about your audiences and industry-insight data about ideal characteristics related to your target audience\u2019s preferences. The more detailed your understanding of potential audiences, the easier earning positive results will be. (Remember your audience archetypes? Here's a chance to study them and update them.)<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Set your goals\r\n<\/strong>Not all marketing activities have the same goals. For example, the metrics you will monitor for a brand awareness campaign will be different than those for a campaign focused on maximizing sales. A stated goal clarifies which metrics to focus on.\u00a0<span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">\r\n<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Build your variations\r\n<\/strong>Although most content systems will allow you to perform A\/B tests with many different variants, it is usually best to limit each round of testing to two or three variations. This allows you to quickly hit sufficient traffic numbers or volume for each option so you can compare them. Doing so also isolates differences in the options to determine which technique led to better results.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Run A\/B tests\r\n<\/strong>After building your variants, launch them and allow the A\/B tests to run. There is no perfect sample size. Instead, the right size depends on your priorities. Targeting a smaller sample size will allow you to analyze your results and adjust more quickly\u2014and at a lower cost\u2014while targeting a larger sample size provides you with more information to support long-term decisions. Clearly, there are benefits and drawbacks to each approach. So, the decision will be based largely on your goals, objectives, and needed levels of confidence.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Analyze the results\r\n<\/strong>Once you have gathered enough data to make an informed decision, you can begin looking at the data gathered. Make note of the key metrics you are tracking as a priority, but do not entirely ignore other metrics. For example, if you are running a campaign to build brand awareness and discover that one version is generating significantly higher sales numbers, while this may not make it the ideal option for the current campaign, it still provides valuable information you can use to monetize other campaigns. The winning option is the one that is performing best, and that version should become the basis for your activities as you move forward.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Make adjustments as needed\r\n<\/strong>After you discover which option won the A\/B test, adjust your activities as needed. If the metrics for the winning variant are clear, expose your entire target audience to that option. If it is somewhat unclear which option is clearly the winner, perform a new A\/B test by adding in new options and test against the leading variation. When testing new versions against the previously leading variation, take results from the first test into account when deciding on the best option.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Continue monitoring\r\n<\/strong>Even after multiple rounds of A\/B testing, you will still need to regularly monitor your activities to ensure they are still effective. Tactics will commonly reach points of diminishing returns, either as the content becomes less relevant or you begin to run out of potential ideas for a specific campaign. Make a habit of monitoring the campaign\u2019s performance, even after you have found a winning variant and exposed the entire audience to it. Should performance begin to slip, you can end the campaign or return to Step 1 and go through a new round of A\/B testing.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<h2>Multivariate Testing<\/h2>\r\nMultivariate testing is a technique for testing a hypothesis in which multiple variables are modified. The goal of multivariate testing is to determine which combination of variations performs the best out of all of the possible combinations (see image below).\r\n\r\n<img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-124\" src=\"https:\/\/pressbooks.bccampus.ca\/socialmedia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2031\/2023\/07\/Multivariate-AB-Tests-e1674752006926.png\" alt=\"A\/B testing is testing one variable.
