How much traffic does a CRO test need?
Enough conversions to distinguish signal from normal variation. Low-traffic B2B sites should rely more on journey analysis, user interviews, form diagnostics, and sequential tests than rapid A/B testing.

Finding and closing the leaks between a visit and a lead: forms, checkout, friction, and the numbers that show where you lose people.
Practical guide
CRO: what to settle before implementation.
Conversion work starts by naming one action and its current rate. A vague goal such as improving engagement produces random design changes. A defined action such as completed inquiry forms gives the team a baseline, a segment, and a result it can verify.
Use analytics to locate the drop, recordings or interviews to understand it, and a bounded change to test the explanation. Fix broken tracking, unclear offers, unnecessary fields, weak proof, and mobile friction before debating button colours.
Before you start
Three decisions that prevent avoidable rework.
✓
Name one conversion event, baseline, audience segment, and owner.
✓
Check tracking and form delivery before changing the interface.
✓
Prioritise changes by expected impact, evidence, effort, and risk.
