What is Conversion?
Conversion, or conversion rate, is the ratio of the number of visitors who performed the desired action proposed on the landing page (filled out a lead form, made a purchase, subscribed to a newsletter, etc.) to the total number of visitors, expressed in percentages. In fact, this is an indicator of the efficiency and profitability of your web resource.
The site can pursue various purposes: placing an order, logging in, subscription to email newsletters, likes or reposts of articles, etc. Whenever a user performs one of these actions, it means that you have just got a conversion.
A successful landing page can be considered a landing page with a conversion rate approaching 10%, for a lead page – this number can be close to 20%.
For example, let’s say you have 10 thousand unique visitors per month, with whom you make 100 deals (sales) per month (1% conversion). The transaction amount is 90 USD. Increase your conversion by only 1% (100% increase), and this will bring you an additional 108 thousand USD per year (100 * 90 = 9000 * 12 = 108000; 200 * 90 = 18000 * 12 = 216000; 216000-108000 = 108000)!
This example is, of course, purely demo, but it quite effectively shows the conversion-income relationship.
