Does Your Website Speak Multi-Language

These days more of us are working from home and doing more shopping from home. Even with the exciting accomplishment of creating not only one, but multiple vaccines, it will take a while until things are “back to normal.” People even say that many of the changes we’ve made during the global pandemic will stick.

Getting Started with A/B Split Testing

or an expert in Marketing, the term “A/B testing” or "split testing" goes hand-in-hand with “Optimization”, “Improving landing page KPIs” and “Increasing conversion rates”. This term is used so often and means so many things to so many people that it’s hard to find a beginner’s view on the topic.

Does your CMS Speak Multi-Language, too?

In my previous post “Does your Website Speak Multi-language?”, we discussed the concepts of multi-lingual websites and the hierarchies of locales, including the basic ideas of “country-first”, “language-first” and “grouped”.
