Why Implement Split Testing?

By Graham McKenzie

True marketing is a science. It involves excessive amounts of research to find the perfect ad campaign. It's never easy, constantly requiring new studies and tests.

A lot of online marketers want to take the easy way out. They always feel that they can copy the success story of another internet marketing campaign. Bad decision and here's why

Split testing is a way to bring the science back into marketing, and quite possibly the most accurate and effective way of doing online marketing research.

Split testing with compare and contrast two ads with subtle differences, ranging from a new font, color, or phrase. After a few days, the marketing company will compare the two ads and see which one drew more attention. Another change is made to that ad and once again they are tested.

Split testing ensures that the ad will stay effective because it's been thoroughly tested and compared against several other ads.

Split testing is a major factor in what campaigns work and what campaigns do not. Rest assured the majority of online campaigns that succeed, ran an extensive split testing campaign beforehand.

What a big mistake. One of the first concepts you learn in marketing basics is the importance of the audience. The audience is everything in sales and they will never come to you unless you reach them. It's like that old saying from Field of Dreams. "If you build it, they will come."

Of course not. Marketing is responsible for breaking down and understanding the audience of the product or service they wish to sell. Until you understand and reach your audience, you will never make a dime. It all starts and ends with the audience.

Split testing is very important in the online marketing world, because it breaks down such a large audience and demographic to fit the needs of your product or service. Even though the World Wide Web expands everywhere, the audience is always more defined when it relates to a certain product or service.

Split testing is not just some optional way of seeing if you can improve your conversions. No, instead it's one of the more viable and accurate ways to test out your ads as well as compare and contrast.
