Content Page: Repeated Bottom Call To Action on Content Page
Hypothesis
If we repeat the call-to-action at the bottom of content pages, then conversions will improve because users who finish consuming content are primed and positioned to take action
Test Results
Key Learning
Context: The primary call-to-action on the content page isn't converting at its potential — design, copy, or placement may be the bottleneck.
What was tested: Users who fully consume content are in a high-engagement state; a repeated CTA at content end converts a segment that would otherwise require re-navigation to find the primary action With 108,360 visitors, this test has solid statistical power.
Result: No statistically significant difference was detected. CTA changes that don't move the needle often mean the bottleneck is elsewhere — consider testing the surrounding context or the value proposition instead.
How to Apply This to Your Site
This experiment tested content page: repeated bottom call to action on content page but produced no statistically significant change. The test was run on a content page page in the cross-industry industry. Inconclusive results suggest this particular change may not be a priority — focus testing effort on higher-impact areas.
Before you test: Consider that cta tests typically require large sample sizes to detect small effects. Run your test for at least 2 full business cycles to account for weekly traffic patterns.
What Was Tested
In this experiment, a simple link to a newsletter signup landing page was added at the bottom of an article. The newsletter landing page then encouraged users to provide their email address for future article updates.

Problem: Key actions on the checkout disappear as users scroll, creating a gap between intent and the ability to act.
