A/B Testing Platform for Piwik Analytics
We are very excited to launch A/B Testing – a powerful new product designed to help you maximise your success and increase your conversions.
What is A/B Testing and why is it so important?
Experimenting with A/B Testing is an important marketing strategy that goes a long way in maximising your conversions.
With A/B Testing you can start improving your conversions and sales in your existing website or app by creating different versions of a web page or mobile app screen to find out how to modify your website to optimize business success.
How does A/B Testing work?
To explain how A/B Testing works, let’s take an example. Imagine one of your most important landing pages has been redesigned to hopefully get more email signups. Now you need to make sure the new version is “better” than the current version, or at least does result in less conversions. To compare the performance of these two versions, you can then run an A/B test whereby the A/B testing product tells you whether the redesigned version is producing more email signups compared to the original version.
How it works is that visitors on your website during the experiment will see a randomly chosen version (variation) and A/B Testing makes sure that your users will always see the same variation for all subsequent visits. The behaviour and goals converted by each user is measured continuously by Piwik A/B Testing. The beautifully designed and easy to use dashboard shows how each variation impacts your success metrics such as conversions, sales or page views.
When the A/B test is complete, you will then know which is the winning version getting you closer to reaching your goals! A/B Testing includes an advanced statistical analysis engine to provide a reliable indicator of which of your versions is actually improving your bottom line.
Examples of successful A/B tests
Below are a just a few interesting A/B tests results from the article 7 Dead-Simple A/B Tests You Should Run on Your Homepage (HubSpot).
Increase click on CTA button by 21%
We actually conducted an A/B test on button color and found that changing the CTA button from green to red increased clicks by 21%. In the world of website optimization, that’s huge!
47.7% more clicks on the navigation bar
An A/B test comparing the phrases used on the navigation bar discovered that the menu link “How It Works” earned 47.7% more clicks than “Why Use Us.”
5% more conversions using a different image
Highrise, a small business CRM, A/B tested their website’s imagery by featuring two different people – Jocelyn on the left, and Michael on the right. They found Michael helped improve conversions by almost 5%.
Changing the headline to increase conversions by 38%
WhichTestWon ran an A/B test on AwayFind’s homepage and found that Version B increased signups by 38%. This could be because the headline is more concise and the subheader includes bolded words to clearly communicate the product’s value
Where do I start testing?
Your testing strategy is tied to your overall business strategy. What do you want people to achieve on your website? What are the goals that you want your users to convert? What are your one or two Key Performance Indicators, and what are your targets for these KPIs?
When you start thinking of improving your targets you can begin by looking at the most important parts that can be improved:
- What are your call to actions?
- Which are your most popular pages, and landing pages?
- What elements of my website is above the fold and can be seen by all visitors within a few seconds?
How do I get A/B Testing?
All premium plugins come with our 14 day money back guarantee and 1-click installation & updates. Customers get all product updates for free.
A/B Testing is available for purchase and download on the Marketplace.
If you are not using Piwik yet, you can also signup for a free trial of Piwik Cloud (including A/B Testing!).

Powerful Video Analytics and Audio Analytics for Piwik
Over the years, one of the most frequently requested feature by users was to be able to measure how videos and audios are watched and engaged with on your website. We are finally able to announce that it is here! We are very excited to launch Media Analytics, which will help you understand and grow your audience.
This article is a showcase of the new powerful video and audio analytics product built for Piwik.
Why media analytics?
We all love media content such as videos as they can make our experiences on websites and apps so much more interesting. A growing number of websites now utilize media files in one form or another: a video presentation of a product or service, a video tutorial teaching you how to do something or interviews with key speakers. Also many creators and distributors are publishing audio files such as podcasts or music songs, and even broadcasting live video events such as music concerts or an entire conference online.
Whenever you publish videos or audio media on your websites or applications, Media Analytics provides you with clear insights on how your audience interacts with your content. It helps you see what content works and why – so you can better understand and further grow your business!
Valuable insights in Real time
See where your audience comes from.
How will Media Analytics help me grow?
- Better understand your audience: who are the users playing videos and for how long, how often, and where have they dropped off.
- Gain quick insights into how interaction with your media changes over time with easy to use graphs and report overviews.
- Get closer to your users by seeing every action of your visitors before and after they utilized your media.
- View valuable insights in Real time: ‘most popular content right now’, your real time audience map, and more.
- See where your audience comes from. Drill down right from continents to specifics such as cities.
- Share and export media analytics reports with your colleagues by creating custom email reports.
- Video and audio players are supported either automatically (for Youtube, Vimeo, HTML5…) or via a simple custom player integration.
- No data limit and 100% privacy and data ownership.
Best of all, it is easy to use and understand, and integrates perfectly with Piwik. Media Analytics complements other reports to give you a 360 degree view of how your users engage with your content.

Premium Plugins now available on the Piwik Analytics Marketplace
We are super excited to announce the launch of three new premium plugins which are now available on the Piwik Marketplace: A/B Testing, Media Analytics, and Activity Log.
All three plugins are easy to use and come with 100% data ownership, documentation, integration with Piwik, powerful data exports and no data limits.
These first premium plugins and the new Marketplace capabilities have been designed and built with love by InnoCraft – the new company brought to you by the makers of Piwik.
1. A/B Testing
A/B Testing helps you grow your business by comparing different versions of your website or app to detect the most successful version that increases your sales, revenue, conversions, pageviews, and more.
A/B tests are also known as experiments or split tests. In an A/B test you show two or more different variations to your users (visitors) and the variation that performs better wins. When a user enters the experiment, a variation will be randomly chosen and the user will see this variation for all subsequent visits. Piwik A/B testing uses advanced statistical analysis to detect which variation performs better for your conversion goals and success metrics. Even small tests can increase your sales and conversions massively!

Learn all about your audience. Which media your users are playing, for how long, how often, and where they dropped off? Where are your users located around the world? Who your audience are and what did people do before and after watching a video or listening to audio? Many of the reports are also available in Real time, so you can gain insights and react quickly.
