This article discusses at length how to constantly evaluate your site's web design and make the necessary changes on a continuous basis.
How to Evaluate Your Site’s Effectiveness
by Kevin Bidwel
You’ve got your site up. You’re collecting email addresses from
your visitors, presenting your product, collecting money.
Are you doing as well as you could? How can you know?
Here’s how you can evaluate your site’s effectiveness:
1. Look at the total unique visitors to your site for a given period.
Some web stats programs (usually provided by your web hosting company) just show
you “visits.” Visits are not the same as “unique visitors.” One person may visit
your site many times—especially if they are interested in your product or
service.
You want to know how many unique visitors your site has had for the last week or
month. That figure then let’s you calculate how many of those people subscribe,
buy, etc.
If you don’t have stats for unique visitors available to you, you can pick up a
free counter from http://www.SiteMeter.com. It will show you how many
individuals visited your site over a specific period.
2. Look at what pages those people viewed.
This is often referred to as the “visitor path.”
Depending on how your site is set up, you may have many pages where people
“enter” your site. You could have people visiting to read an article, download a
free eBook or a million other things. Often these people never see a sales page.
You want to know how many unique people actually viewed your offer to subscribe
or your sales page. That will allow you to accurately judge whether you’re sales
page is doing a good job of converting visitors into buyers.
3. Look at how many subscribers you are grabbing from visitors.
To make a good profit you want to grab as many email addresses from your
visitors as possible. Depending on how they come to your site, you want to
convert as much as 50% of your unique visitors into subscribers.
By comparing the new subscribers you gain versus the unique visitors, you come
up with that ratio.
4. Look at how well your sales page converts visitors into buyers.
By comparing the unique visitors to your sales page against the actual number of
sales, you get a closing ratio. While you will hear the “golden” ratio of 1 sale
for 100 visitors quoted often, the actual sales ratio for your site may be
higher or lower depending on many factors.
5. Calculate the Cost of Key Outcomes.
By looking at the numbers above you can calculate:
Total Income – Just total the gross income from the sales you made
Income per Unique Visitor – Take the total income and divide it by unique
visitors
Income per Subscriber – Take the total income and divide it by the new
subscribers
Income per Unique Prospect – Take the total income and divide it by the number
of unique visitors to your sales page
Once you have these figures you can easily find whether an ad is a good buy or a
bad one, how much to pay affiliates for making sales, how much to re-invest in
lead generation.
Hope this article on web design has given you inputs on how to use quizzes and
game in your web design. But be sure that these two can fire up your web design
if you use it sensibly.
