Default Testing Question -- How many conversions? - 02-04-2008, 12:52 PM

Hi,

If I am running an A/B split, how many conversions should I have before I consider my results to be conclusive?

I know "The more the better," but this is an A/B split that I'm testing on my order page, so I want to eliminate the poorer performer as soon as prudently possible.

Thanks,

Michael

Michael,

I recommend a minimum of 100 actions. Depending on what testing sofware you are using, it can stick with the best converting version for you. That way, you can pretty much "set it and forget it".

Hope that helps,

Mike
