Based on the results, site owners can then implement the metrics throughout the website.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How Does SEO AB Testing Work?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As stated earlier, the AB <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">testing <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SEO process is quite long and detailed. There are five basic steps that you need to follow so that the AB split testing experiment goes right.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>1.

For example, you can select some content-based or e-commerce pages of your website and make small changes that the search engine won\u2019t mind.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>2.

If not, then other external factors might affect the control pages in a small way. So, state a hypothesis for the control group as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>4.
