Use split testing as:<\/p><ol><li>A tool to solve specific problems by pinpointing issues in your test groups.<\/li><li>A means to a greater understanding of web visitor behavior such as buying habits and other priorities that you may not have considered.<\/li><li>A discovery tool that will help you reorganize your website design and content.<\/li><li>A way to resolve particular problems on your landing pages or other website pages: essentially an analytical tool to discover if anything is going wrong and how to correct it.<\/li><\/ol><p>How does it work?<\/p><p>To start, select a number of email recipients to which you want to send your tests to and split them into groups.\u00a0 As an example using Lyris ListManager\u2122 hosted by <a href=\"https:\/\/mailinglistservices.com\">Dundee Internet<\/a>, the marketer can simply choose either a percentage or an absolute number of recipients in which to send the email test versions, and ListManager\u2122 automatically selects a random subset of the list based on this figure.<\/p><p>Next, using the content from your latest email marketing campaign develop alternatives of the same email by changing the subject line, the content, the offer or the images, etc. \u00a0As an example, you might retain the same template, image and links but use a different subject line. \u00a0You might keep the same subject line but change the promotion placement in your newsletter or change the promotion itself.<\/p><p>Each run of the email generates valuable feedback as you collect the audience responses from one group who had an email with (for example) a different subject line compared to the other group with the same subject line.<\/p><p>\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aurea.com\/our-acquisitions\/lyris\/?ref=blog\/62-Split-Test-for-Success\">The key to a meaningful split test<\/a>; is to conduct the test by changing only one thing in each different version. \u00a0If you run a test where you change both the subject line and the content, and one version in that test performs better, how do you know if it was the different subject line or different content that made the difference? \u201c<\/p><p>What should you test?<\/p><p>Start with something simple, as mentioned, the subject line. \u00a0Consider reworking your subject for optimal length, different stated benefits, first person, call to action etc. \u00a0\u00a0Again, make sure you only change one variable at a time (per test) keeping all other aspects the same, such as the time of day you mail to the color, fonts and image placement in your message<\/p><p>Run your tests and compare your results. Consider the responses: \u00a0Did an older list respond better than a newer list to the test? \u00a0Which email responded with greater open rates \u2013 the blue background or the yellow background?\u00a0 Which mailing yielded the most referrals and so on?<\/p><p>When should you test?<\/p><p>Email is seasonal.\u00a0 Be aware that testing a change in your email layout may receive a better response rate one month over another month. \u00a0Consider testing all your email versions (for example) simultaneously, so outside influences such as a Holiday will have minimal effect on your results, unless of course you\u2019re testing for Holiday responses.<\/p><p>Did you pass?<\/p><p>You can run tests all day, however, how you read your test results should determine the next steps to take with your email campaigns.\u00a0 What is the goal of your campaign? Are you seeking higher open rates, more referrals or greater, clickthroughs? \u00a0Was your list members asked to fill out a form, send in an email address or visit a particular website?\u00a0\u00a0 Consider all these factor when you test and test for success in your future campaigns.<\/p><p>Need help with split testing, contact <a href=\"mailto:help@dundee.net\">help@dundee.net<\/a> for more information.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-50dfb2e5 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"50dfb2e5\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-3054ec07\" data-id=\"3054ec07\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2b9a5c86 elementor-shape-rounded elementor-grid-0 e-grid-align-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-social-icons\" data-id=\"2b9a5c86\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"social-icons.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-social-icons-wrapper elementor-grid\" role=\"list\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-grid-item\" role=\"listitem\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-icon elementor-social-icon elementor-social-icon-facebook elementor-repeater-item-cdebeba\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/DundeeInternet\/?ref=bookmarks\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-screen-only\">Facebook<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fab-facebook\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M504 256C504 119 393 8 256 8S8 119 8 256c0 123.78 90.69 226.38 209.25 245V327.69h-63V256h63v-54.64c0-62.15 37-96.48 93.67-96.48 27.14 0 55.52 4.84 55.52 4.84v61h-31.28c-30.8 0-40.41 19.12-40.41 38.73V256h68.78l-11 71.69h-57.78V501C413.31 482.38 504 379.78 504 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-grid-item\" role=\"listitem\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-icon elementor-social-icon elementor-social-icon-twitter elementor-repeater-item-4beec98\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/dundee_internet?lang=en\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-screen-only\">Twitter<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fab-twitter\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M459.37 151.716c.325 4.548.325 9.097.325 13.645 0 138.72-105.583 298.558-298.558 298.558-59.452 0-114.68-17.219-161.137-47.106 8.447.974 16.568 1.299 25.34 1.299 49.055 0 94.213-16.568 130.274-44.832-46.132-.975-84.792-31.188-98.112-72.772 6.498.974 12.995 1.624 19.818 1.624 9.421 0 18.843-1.3 27.614-3.573-48.081-9.747-84.143-51.98-84.143-102.985v-1.299c13.969 7.797 30.214 12.67 47.431 13.319-28.264-18.843-46.781-51.005-46.781-87.391 0-19.492 5.197-37.36 14.294-52.954 51.655 63.675 129.3 105.258 216.365 109.807-1.624-7.797-2.599-15.918-2.599-24.04 0-57.828 46.782-104.934 104.934-104.934 30.213 0 57.502 12.67 76.67 33.137 23.715-4.548 46.456-13.32 66.599-25.34-7.798 24.366-24.366 44.833-46.132 57.827 21.117-2.273 41.584-8.122 60.426-16.243-14.292 20.791-32.161 39.308-52.628 54.253z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you Split over Email Testing?
