Experiment types

[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text]The tool allows you to create 3 types of experiments:

• A/B test: This is the classic test in which you will show users two or more variants of the same page element to see which version has a greater impact on your website.
• Multivariate test: This experiment consists in showing users different variants of two or more sections on the same page. It is a very used option when you need to test different combinations of elements of the same page.
• Redirect test: This option is used to perform independent web page tests, which are identified by different urls or routes. As a reminder, you must introduce a “noindex” tag to the test page.
