Default Split testing
Sorry, I'm not getting much help from Google...

I would like to do an A-B test on my WP home page. Since WP points to one specific page as the home page, is split-testing the home page even possible within WP? The alternate page would be .../Home2

Thanks

you will need a plugin or advanced custom code to do that. Premise has support for split testing.

Thanks.

Dang, I knew I should have gotten that. But I don't need help with copy. Sale's over I suppose...

There is a lot more going with Premise than copy. There are other plugins out there that offer split testing support but I haven't used any of them.

Nick, I have a specific question about Premise and I don't see a Help page beyond the FAQ.

I have an Aweber sign-up form in my sidebar - signup takes you to a thank you page.. If I want to split-test:

1. Will the signup from the sidebar on page A or page B tell me which page the signup came from?

2. If page A is my original home page and page B is an alternate home page (in WP) and if Premise shows alternate versions, will my Home link in the navbar still always take them to the original home page? Is it even possible to do split testing on the page designated by WP as the home page?

Thanks.

Premise has a great support crew (I work with them). After you click "help" and look through the FAQ you will see the contact form, all the way down.

I don't see a "Help" link at all, and there is no contact form at the bottom of the FAQ.

Link please?
