Description
Finally, A/B Testing & Personalization Built for WordPress
You spend hours creating content, but are you sure it’s working? Every headline, button, and image you publish is a guess. Wasted traffic and lost sales are the cost of guessing wrong.
Accelerate eliminates the guesswork. It’s the native CRO (Conversion Rate Optimization) platform that puts the power of A/B testing and personalization directly inside the WordPress Block Editor. No more expensive SaaS subscriptions. No more complex integrations. Just data-driven results.
While Accelerate is still in beta, we have released the following features.
What Can You Do With Accelerate?
- Run A/B Tests on Any Block: Create multiple versions of your headlines, calls-to-action, or images and let Accelerate tell you which one performs best. Know exactly what works.
- Personalize Content for Different Audiences: Show unique content to visitors based on where they came from, their on-site behavior, and more. Deliver the perfect message every time.
- Understand Your Content with Block-Level Analytics: See exactly how people interact with your site on a block-by-block basis. Our GDPR-compliant analytics gives you actionable insights you own completely.
- Promote Content Site-Wide with Broadcast Blocks: Instantly advertise new offers or important announcements across your entire site from one central location.
- Manage Everything from a Marketer’s Dashboard: Our Content Explorer gives you a single, unified view of your content performance.
Built for the Modern WordPress Creator
Accelerate is designed from the ground up to be seamless. It integrates directly with the tools you already use, including Synced Patterns (Reusable Blocks), to supercharge your workflow.
