eCommerce Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO)
Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO)
Conversion Rate Optimization is the process of increasing the percentage of website visitors or users that convert into customers
Conversion Rate Optimization
eCommerce conversion rate optimization is a data-driven discipline to increase the percentage of users who perform any desired action on a site. A conversion is said to happen when a user or visitor browsing through your eCommerce site makes the “Desired Action.” The desired action could be anything from making a purchase to signing up for an email newsletter on your eCommerce website.
Increasing Conversion Rate (CR) without increasing the paid campaign budget is the objective of any CRO program. But, for any application, this KPI (Key Performance Indicator) is not enough for an eCommerce business to succeed. CRO-HD is the ultimate solution to this problem, it can increase revenue and profits while delivering memorable user experience.
If you are running an online store and require your users to complete any desired action in it you need it to be optimized for conversion. If your website is NOT optimized for conversions, you are wasting money regardless of how much money you are spending on marketing.

Redefining eCommerce Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO)
The goal of a typical eCommerce conversion rate optimization project is to improve only one Key Performance Indicator: Increase the number of desired actions (e.g. Check out) on a site by the visitors.
Most CRO Service providers target increasing checkout through user interface changes. Even though this can be somewhat effective, an eCommerce CRO process must adopt multiple strategies to increase revenue and profits while reducing the cost of customer acquisition.
With this goal in mind, Virtina set out to find the ultimate solution for this and came up with the most comprehensive, Data-Driven CRO approach tailored for eCommerce sites. We call this CRO-HD or Holistic, Data-Driven Commerce Revenue Optimization.

Regular CRO Programs Vs. Commerce Revenue Optimization (CRO-HD)
CRO - Single KPI
Due to being too conversion-driven, generic CRO programs are only able to address 1/10 of the revenue opportunities. Key metrics like Retention rate, Customer Lifetime Value, Customer satisfaction score, and more are ignored due to over-optimizing for conversion rate.
It may negatively affect the revenue of your eCommerce website!
