Introduction
Welcome to the Army MWR A/B Testing Hub.
This page is your go-to resource for understanding how A/B testing drives data-informed decisions and enhances the experience for our Army community. Whether you’re a marketing professional, content creator, or part of the Army’s leadership, this hub will guide you through the process of using A/B testing to improve user engagement and optimize the ArmyMWR.com website.
What is A/B Testing?
A/B testing is a method of comparing two versions of a webpage, feature, or content element to determine which performs better. By splitting traffic between two variations – the current (Control) and a new version (Variant) – we can measure the impact on user behavior, engagement, and overall effectiveness. The goal is to identify the version that leads to higher conversion rates, better user experiences, and more impactful results.
