What it does

Run conversion rate optimization through hypothesis-driven testing including audit, hypothesis generation, test design, statistical analysis, and rollout decisions. Use this skill whenever the user wants to optimize conversion, run A/B tests, audit a funnel, generate test hypotheses, design experiments, or analyze test results. Triggers on conversion optimization, CRO, A/B test, split test, multivariate test, hypothesis, conversion funnel, funnel audit, experiment design, statistical significance, lift, optimization. Also triggers when the user has a conversion problem and isn't sure where to start, or when test results are ambiguous and need interpretation.

CRO Optimization

Run conversion rate optimization as a structured discipline: audit → hypothesize → test → decide. Stack-agnostic. Tool-agnostic.

This skill is for running tests against existing pages and flows. For writing landing page copy from scratch, use landing-page-copy. For setting up the analytics that make CRO possible, use analytics-strategy.


When to use

  • Converting traffic at lower rate than expected
  • Specific funnel step has high drop-off
  • Pages with high traffic that could move the needle if optimized
  • A/B testing infrastructure exists (or can be set up)
  • Statistical significance and sample size questions

When NOT to use

  • Without sufficient traffic to test (under ~5,000 monthly conversions per variant)
  • Pre-launch (no users to test on yet)
  • Strategy or messaging-level questions that need qualitative research first
  • Brand-defining choices (CRO can't optimize a fundamentally wrong brand)

Required inputs

  • The page or flow under optimization
  • Current conversion rate and traffic volume
  • Access to analytics (event tracking, funnel data)
  • An A/B testing tool (or willingness to set one up)
  • Time and budget for testing (typically 2 to 8 weeks per test)

The framework: 4 phases

1. Audit

Diagnose before treating.

Quantitative audit:

  • Funnel data. Where are users dropping off? The biggest drop is the biggest opportunity.
  • Segmentation. Does the funnel perform differently by source, device, geography, audience type?
  • Performance data. Are slow pages dragging conversions?
  • Search Console / on-site search. What are users looking for that they can't find?

Qualitative audit:
