That changing the color of a button won’t lead to 50% more conversions.

I love to talk about AB testing and optimizations and the common pitfalls that most people encounter when they start testing.

What attracted you to WordPress in the first place?

The ease of use and the flexibility it provided

What is your favourite plugin or theme, and why?

I think Gravity Forms is one of the best plugins because it is incredibly easy to use by end users but can also be extended by developers.
