‘Conversion Rate Optimisation’ – or CRO – may sound like complicated internet jargon, but really it’s an easy concept to explain! Conversion Rate Optimisation is about providing for the current users of your website, figuring out what these users are looking for when they arrive at your site prompting them to take action to buy from you or book your services. Through clever use of analytics and user feedback, this can improve the effectiveness of your website – without the need to sniff out new visitors.
Sometimes, all your website may need is a little tweak here and there for it to bloom into a fully-optimised hotbed of activity, in which regular visitors to your site become regular customers for your site. Case studies have found that, in some instances, even just changing the colours of buttons and text on a webpage can increase productivity noticeably! Or perhaps slightly editing the content of your website can help increase the percentage of visitors who convert into customers – no matter what you need, SEO Copilot can identify ways you can improve your site, in order to get a higher percentage of people to sign up for your product or service!
When it boils down to it, CRO is all about optimising the rate of visitors who convert to customers… it does exactly what it says on the tin!
Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) goes hand-in-hand with Conversion Rate Optimisation. Whilst Search Engine Optimisation makes your website appear higher in search engine rankings (therefore attracting more customers to your website), Conversion Rate Optimisation increases the chance of browsers both revisiting your website repeatedly and investing in your services.
Ultimately, CRO aims to generate more sales for your website using the browsers you have presently, thus increasing overall profit made because it’s much more cost-effective to convert a higher percentage of the visitors you already have than to attract more. This means that CRO is valuable because it increases profits whilst simultaneously lowering your cost per acquisition. In fact, if you were to double your conversion rates, you would be concurrently cutting your cost per acquisition in half.
Also, if you were to decide to spend money trying to increase the number of visitors who come to your website, using Conversion Rate Optimisation methods would allow for you to get more out of your increased marketing efforts.
