Selective attention is our coping mechanism to process the information around us. This ability to focus keeps us alive and smartly productive.
When scanning websites for information, visitors have an aim. With a goal in mind, they don’t pay attention to all elements on page, they rather focus on the useful elements for the task, so the brain can process just useful information.
Here are a few ways you can increase conversion rates by helping visitors focus on the right elements on page.
1. Conduct Usability Studies 2. Focus on Visitors’ Goals 3. Declutter and Use White Space 4. Be Careful with Banners and Right Column Content 5. Use Functional Animation 6. Use Visual Hierarchy 7. Use Pop-Ups and Modal Windows

The metric you may not have heard of is click to open rate (CTOR) which essentially measures the effectiveness of the content of your email. It is calculated by the number of unique clicks divided by the number of unique opens.
Using our ongoing example 100 clicks / 180 opens (multiplied by 100 for a percent) = 55%. As with all other email metrics, this can fluctuate based on how awesome your content is. A good CTOR will vary between 20 – 30%.

As I mentioned earlier, A/B testing can be a game-changer if you have well-thought-out, strategic hypotheses for what you want to test.
But how do you know what to test? How do you come up with a high-quality hypothesis?
This is where I want to show you a 10,000ft view of our own methodology. We call it the Testing Trifecta.

Whether or not it’s doing its job of transforming more strangers into loyal customers. It’s not always easy to tell, though. It’s tough to know whether or not that’s actually happening.
Heatmaps, scrollmaps, and clickmaps can help. Using them together can tell you exactly what people are doing on your website. So you can see – plain as day – if your landing page is pulling its own weight (or not).
They’ll tell you where people are looking. Whether they’re reading or not. And how interested they potentially are in what you have to offer.

1) In the Travel Industry, Keep Language Positive
2) Don't Disgust in Business Consulting
3) Fear mongering doesn't lead to more conversions (most of the time)
4) Shoot for Short and Sweet Business Services Pages
5) Spread the Joy of Higher Education
6) Trust Words Work in Some Industries ... But Not Others
7) Keep Copy Concise in Credit & Lending
8) Avoid buzzwords in Business Consulting
9) Joy Isn't Always a Conversion Booster

Micro-conversions occur at every single step from when someone hits your site. Those ‘user flows’ are critical to eventually, one day, turning into paying customers (assuming they had a good experience, first).
Then once they do come back, micro-conversions could mean the difference between a larger number of visitors turning into customers because of video views, progress bars, and more. Or it could mean the difference between a greater of number people abandoning your checkout process because you don’t allow guest checkouts.
The only way to know for sure, is to switch your focus away from conversion rates (initially) and instead spend more time helping customers complete the “task” that brought them to your site in the first place.

To boost our reply rate, we asked ourselves: What makes the best online content so engaging?
The answer: The best online content speaks to the user in terms of value. More specifically, the user's personal values. So, what are these user values that we need to target? Well, to look at that we need to understand today's average user. As opposed to their predecessors, today's savvy post-digital users value personalization, customization, and participation.
Our hypothesis was as follows: If we can craft an email user experience that improves upon these three values, our reply rate will spike. 3 successful tests later, our reply rate has gone from 8% all the way up to 34%.

1. Poor design
2. Unnoticeable calls to action
3. Using trashy or cliché stock photos
4. Lack of Hierarchy
Not only should the images be authentic and relevant, but also the hierachy. Without an attractive and informative heading and hierarchy on your landing page, users will be confused.
5. No social or user trust cues
6. Too much text

The visual cues did impact how much a user pays attention to the form.
- The hand-drawn arrow resulted in the longest amount of time on the form.
- The human looking away from the form resulted in the shortest.
So, while every site is different, here’s some empirical data that says you should perhaps test hand-drawn directional objects (e.g. an arrow) for guiding the attention of users.
Also, if you use an image of a human as a visual cue, have this person looking in the direction of the CTA or key feature. The human looking away was the worst in terms of fixation time.

This post explored many models, from the basics that are default in GA, to Markov Models and the relative blackbox/robust model that premium Google Analytics and Attribution 360 use.
While it can be daunting, especially when faced with the prospect of having to use sophisticated statistical models in R to build out accurate models, remember this: attribution uses past information to help you make future optimization decisions.
For some businesses, really nailing last click attribution might help inform future decisions. For large multi-channel brands that have a large media spend – well, they might need a sophisticated data-driven model.
