INTRODUCTION In internet marketing and sales, Conversion rate optimization (CRO) is the method of
creating an experience for a website or landing page visitor with the goal of increasing the percentage of visitors that convert into customers.
It is also commonly referred to as CRO. Conversion optimization was born out of the need of lead generation and ecommerce Internet marketers to improve their website's results. As competition grew on the web during the early 2000s, Internet marketers and sales representatives had to become more measurable with their marketing and sales tactics. They began experimenting with website design and content variations to determine which layouts, copy text, offers and images will improve their conversion rate.
Many Internet marketers see Conversion Rate Optimization as a process of increasing website leads and sales without spending money on attracting more visitors by reducing their visitor "bounce rate". Some test methods enable one to monitor which headlines, images and content that can help convert more visitors into customers.
There are several approaches to conversion optimization with two main schools of thought prevailing in the last few years. One school is more focused on testing as an approach to discover the best way to increase a website, a campaign or a landing page conversion rates. The other school is focused more on the pretesting stage of the optimization process. In this second approach, the sales agent or marketer will invest a considerable amount of time understanding the audience and then creating a targeted message that appeals to that particular audience. Only then would it be willing to deploy testing mechanisms to increase conversion rates.
To a layman’s point of view, Your conversion rate is a measure of the number of potential customers that go on to buy your products or services via your website. But how do we optimize our conversion rate? What are the results? What are the funnel s/channels that works best?

CONVERSION COMPONENTS THAT SHOULD BE TESTED AND IMPROVED TO BOOST YOUR CONVERSION RATES (PART 1)
• Headline • Offer(s)
• Benefits• Lead
Web page offers the biggest
opportunity for improvements in conversion rate.
Use headlines that clearly state that
your product offers
Since your offer is the
“call to action” that asks your visitors to act
(purchase, sign up, opt-in), etc
List your benefits in the order of your
product’s “value hierarchy” to your target
market
Leads must be written with
strong benefits that capture your visitor’s attention and make them want to continue

CONVERSION COMPONENTS THAT SHOULD BE TESTED AND IMPROVED TO BOOST YOUR CONVERSION RATES (PART 2)
The images you use have a big impact on your conversion rates. People like to read “captions” under your images almost as much as they read your headlines. So, add powerful captions and make your images clickable to the order/sign up page.
• Images
The number one reason the people indicated why they wouldn’t buy from a website was because it had an unprofessional “look and feel” that lacked credibility and did not “feel” trustworthy. Having a professional look, and trust building logos (such as VeriSign and BBBOnline certifications) help convert significantly more of your website’s qualified visitors into new customers
• Look & Feel

OTHER IMPORTANT CONVERSION ELEMENTS TO TEST
Hot conversion elements
Reduce your “bail out” rate by optimizing your web pages to download within 5 seconds
Add a Logo and a powerful “Value Proposition” to the top left
Instead of letting visitors click off your landing page, put all your information on one page (This tactic alone increased the conversions of a landing page by 55%)
Add a phone Number and Call to Action above the fold (top of the page)
If you’re truly serious about maximizing your results, continuously test, track and improve the important elements of your web site, landing pages (and your marketing materials).
