Title Experiments Free

Description

Split (A/B) test multiple titles for a post and discover which gets more page views. Great way to increase click through rates.

TITLE EXPERIMENTS WILL NOT SUPPORTED IN WORDPRESS 5.0+

Most people decide to read your article based solely on it’s title.

Are your titles getting in your way?

Test your titles and discover what your readers find interesting. Get more clicks. Get more revenue.

Use the process of A/B Testing to try different variations of your post titles to get a higher click through rate. It’s very simple to add multiple versions of an article title that will be randomly displayed in any post list. Each time the article is listed it is counted as an impression. Each time the article is visited it is counted as a view. This will easily let you see what percentage of impressions get clicked on for each title.

After the update a week or two ago, this plugin overloaded my site with too many processes. Once I deactivated, my site returned to normal. Do not use!!!

Great plugin, allows you to test multiple alternate post titles to see what works best based on visitor input. Takes all the work out of A/B testing, does almost everything automatically. Very responsive author.
