Image A/B Testing FAQ
How many variants should I test at once?
Start with 2-3 variants. More variants require more traffic to reach significance. Test one hypothesis at a time for cleaner results.
How long should I run a test?
Run until you hit 95% statistical confidence, regardless of time. For most sites, this is 1-3 weeks. ConversionWax tells you when you're done.
Can I test images on mobile and desktop separately?
Yes. Segment tests by viewport. You might find different winners for different contexts.
What if no variant wins clearly?
That's data too. If variants perform equally, test bolder variations or focus optimization efforts elsewhere.
Does A/B testing affect page speed?
Minimal impact. Images swap in milliseconds. No layout shift because dimensions are preserved.
Can I A/B test personalized images?
Yes. Test whether personalized visuals beat generic ones. Or test different personalization strategies against each other.
