We've covered the basics of Parameter Estimation pretty well at this point. We've seen how to use the PDF, CDF and Quantile function to learn the likelihood of certain values, and we've seen how we can add a Bayesian prior to our estimate. Now we want to use our estimates to compare two unknown parameters.

WHY DID WE WRITE THIS GUIDE?
Conversion rate optimization (CRO) provides a significant opportunity for businesses of any size. It takes a scientific approach to optimizing websites and enables businesses (and organizations) to convert more visitors into subscribers or customers. We wrote this guide to help anyone interested in conversion rate optimization learn how to get started and how to get the best possible results with their testing program.

While testing is a critical part of conversion optimization to make sure we actually made things better and by how much, it’s also the tip of the iceberg of the full CRO picture. Testing tools are affordable (even free), and increasingly easier to use – so pretty much any idiot can set up and run A/B tests. This is not where the difficulty lies. The hard part is testing the right things, and having the right treatment.
