Multivariate testing (MVT) is a technique used to test the effectiveness of different versions of a web page or other digital asset. It involves creating multiple variations of a page, each with a different design, layout, or content, and then randomly showing them to visitors to see which variation performs best.
What is Multivariate Testing?
Multivariate testing differs from A/B testing in that it allows you to test multiple variables at once. With A/B testing, you can only test two variations of a page at a time. With multivariate testing, you can test dozens or even hundreds of variations.
Types of Multivariate Testing
There are two main types of multivariate testing:
