Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO) is the process of improving your website or landing pages to get more visitors to take a desired action — like signing up for a demo, downloading a guide, or making a purchase. Instead of just driving more traffic, CRO helps you get more value from the traffic you already have.

It’s about identifying what’s getting in the way of conversions and testing changes to fix it — from headlines and CTAs to layout and load times. The best CRO strategies are rooted in user behavior, analytics, and ongoing experimentation.

CRO matters because:

  • More conversions = better ROI from your marketing spend.
  • Small tweaks can lead to big gains.
  • It helps align your website with your customer’s real needs and intent.

Example:

Say your SaaS landing page gets a lot of traffic but few signups. Through CRO, you discover the form is too long and the value proposition isn’t clear. You shorten the form, rework the headline, and add testimonials — and your signup rate doubles.
