Re: ecommerce Conversion Rate Analysis



Thanks for you reply Robert, I'll definitely check out that book.

Unfortunately, looking at my data, i'm not sure I have enough buyers to
be sure of statisitcal significance (although I have thousands of
visitors). Basically my data for a couple of months before the change
was an average daily conversion rate of 2.5% with a standard deviation
of 0.6%. On a chart it looks really random but very rarely above 3.5%
or below 2%. Since the change the conversion has averaged 2.7% for a
couple of weeks with a similar variance, but it's difficult to know if
it's a real effect, as I can find short periods prior to the change
with an average conversion that high.

One way I found to test significance was the chi squard test, where I'd
divide my visitors into a 2x2 matrix of buyers vs. non-buyers and
before and after the change. Does anyone know if this is a valid use of
this test? And thanks again for your help Robert
