			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A friend tipped me off this morning to <a href="http://www.abtests.com/">ABTests.com, a repository of case studies of a/b tests run on various websites</a>, made public by the people who designed and ran the tests. It&#8217;s exciting for me to see this sort of information see the light of day, instead of hidden in a file folder somewhere.</p>
<p>Naturally, I understand why a company might want to keep these details secret, but I&#8217;m happy to be working with some companies who don&#8217;t mind me publishing some &#8220;behind the scenes&#8221; stories, and it&#8217;s great to see others doing the same, so we can learn from each other.</p>
<p>For example, I&#8217;m now better equipped to make an educated guess about the conversion improvement one might see after <a href="http://www.abtests.com/test/75001/product-for-din-schablonierschrift">changing a file download <em>link</em> to a big green download <strong>button</strong></a>. </p>
<p>Or here&#8217;s a story where <a href="http://www.abtests.com/test/65001/other-for-single-page-vs--multi-step-checkout">consolidating the shopping cart checkout to one screen showed nearly 22% more completed purchases</a>.</p>
<p>Which options would you like to test on your site? <a href="http://metricology.com/contact/">E-mail us and let&#8217;s find you some improvements, too!</a></p>
