    @Andriana, the plugin is suppose to split your traffic and send 50% (approximately) to one version of the landing page and the rest to the other version of the landing page.

    I apologize for the dumb question- I’ve been looking all over for where to actually PUT the variation page for split testing- ie, I have a wordpress site and I publish the pages and posts I write correct? So if I make a variation page and publish it so that it has a URL address, won’t both pages show up on my site if someone goes to it? How do I get it so the page has a url without showing up twice on my website? Or does the plugin automatically make it so that only one page shows at a time?

    Sorry if this is a dumb question- it must be because I can’t seem to find anyone else who has asked it lol.

    Hi Paul, Yeah that plugin didn’t get updated since 2009 but it still works fine with current WordPress. We checked 3 WordPress plugins for this and found that one to be the easiest to use. The one you recommended is also good and will work just fine. Thank you for the suggestion.

    Hi
    Thanks for this hint, I wish you had written it a few months ago.

    I ended up spending hours researching how to to this and ended up using a different plug in, mainly because the one you mention had not been updated since 2009 (according to stats).

    I ended up finding GWO4WP found at http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gwo4wp/ which was updated last in 2011 (according to stats).

    I expect it is similar to the one you recommend and I found this one to work perfectly.

    Just some food for thought.
    Paul

    Google website optimizer is amazing. I use this on a few of my sites, especially when I release a new product.
