It’s been nearly three years since I walked into the world of conversion rate optimization. 

When I transitioned from journalism to marketing, I had no plan on what to do, how long I’d stay, or how far I’d try to go.

Not every potential client that reaches out to us has a conversion problem.

Some have an SEO problem, and others have usability issues plaguing their website – and this is something that they might not be aware of at the time.

Of course, these two issues end up negatively affecting conversions.

The only way to continually learn is through rigorous experimentation and documentation. But all too often, small startups are disadvantaged by frowning upon the documentation part or viewing it as an optional formality.  Not documenting experimentation insights makes building a meaningful experimentation program challenging and impedes learning.
