Optimizing landing pages for an Analytics SaaS product

An Analytics SaaS company offering cutting-edge data analytics tools for businesses sought to increase the number of free trial sign-ups through their website. Despite having a highly effective product, the company struggled to convert website visitors into free trial users.

Solution

Identifying Areas for Improvement

DataDab conducted a comprehensive analysis of this analytics company's landing pages to identify areas for improvement:

User behavior analysis

Utilized heatmaps, click maps, and scroll maps to understand how users interacted with the landing pages and identify potential friction points that hindered conversions.

Conversion funnel analysis

Analyzed the customer's conversion funnel to pinpoint drop-off points and areas where users were not progressing toward the desired goal of signing up for a free trial.

User feedback collection

Collected user feedback through surveys and interviews to gain insights into the factors influencing users' decision-making processes and identify any barriers to conversion.

Test Design and Implementation

Based on the insights gathered, DataDab designed and implemented a series of A/B tests to optimize the landing pages:

Test hypothesis formulation

Formulated hypotheses for each identified area of improvement, predicting how specific changes to the landing pages would impact free trial sign-ups.

Variant design

We created multiple variants of the landing pages, incorporating the proposed changes from the hypotheses.
