Experience & conversion

A/B testing

A/B Testing

We implement experiments that are technically sound — flicker-free, DOM-safe and tied to the right metric — so the result you read is the result that happened.

Two variants, and the stopping rule agreed before either one shippedEXP · 03
Overview

Experiments done properly

An A/B test is only as good as its setup. A flash of the original, a variant that breaks on mobile, or a metric that doesn't match the hypothesis will quietly ruin the result before you ever read it.

We handle the engineering and the statistics: clean variant implementation, agreed success metrics, sample sizes worked out in advance, and an honest read at the end — including when the answer is inconclusive, which is a valid outcome.

Flicker-free
Variants render without the original flashing first, so the test doesn't bias itself or hurt the experience.
Aligned to a metric
Every experiment maps to one primary metric agreed up front, so we're not fishing for a result after the fact.
Read honestly
We report what the data supports. Inconclusive is a real answer, and we say so rather than dressing it up.
The optimization loop

Most of conversion work is the measuring, not the change. Inconclusive is a valid result.

Use cases

Where this helps most

  1. PDP layout test

    Testing a new product-page layout against the current one to see which drives more add-to-carts.

  2. Offer & messaging test

    Comparing how different value propositions or offers on a page affect conversion, cleanly and measurably.

  3. Validating a redesign

    Rolling out a redesign as an experiment first, so a big change is backed by data before it goes to everyone.

Process

How we deliver

  1. Define

    We agree the hypothesis, the primary metric and what a meaningful change would look like before building anything.

  2. Build & QA

    We implement the variant flicker-free and DOM-safe, then QA it across devices to confirm it behaves everywhere.

  3. Run

    We launch the test at a planned sample size and duration, and monitor for tracking or delivery issues while it runs.

  4. Read & decide

    We read the result against the primary metric and recommend ship, roll back, or run again — including calling it inconclusive.

FAQ

A/B Testing

What tools do you use to run tests?
We typically use GrowthBook or a similar experimentation platform. The tool matters less than the setup — clean delivery, correct tracking and a metric agreed before the test starts.
How do you avoid the flicker effect?
We implement variants so the change is applied before the page paints, rather than swapping content after the original has already shown. That keeps the test from biasing itself and protects the experience.
What if the test is inconclusive?
That's a valid and common outcome. We report it as inconclusive rather than forcing a winner, and we use what we learned to shape the next hypothesis instead of shipping a change the data doesn't support.
