The quickest way to dramatically improve your online business is to
improve your conversion ratios. Web Conversion Ratios speak to the percent of visitors you get to take a specific, desired action. For most web sites that action is to make a purchase. Some web sites want the user to start a free trial, or
sign up for a newsletter and some people want the
user to pick up the phone a make a phone call.

Looking at the chart you
can see that 10,000 visitors are worth 6k to the business with a average
conversion ratio of 1.28%. If that same business could improve their
conversion ratio to 3%, those same 10,000 users would be worth 14k.
Ok, now its time for the
lights to come on… What if we can increase the visitors, increase the
average order value and increase the conversion ratio? For some of our
customers's that translates into a huge increase in revenue.
