That's the real thing that I see missing in a lot of CMS's. If I could setup A/B tests right in markdown and easily post the results somewhere(A bit tricksy, yes), that would simplify operations hugely for a great many people.
- urlwolf 14y agoAgreed. This would be a killer feature. Right now the options you have is to do everything server side (say django-lean) or use one of the commercial options (optimizely). Not ideal. My money on the static site generator race is on docPad.
- gwern 14y agoThe most painful part is that you used to be able to use Google Website Optimizer as a static-site-wide a/b tester. I was doing just that on my own (Hakyll-generated) site, gwern.net, and half-way through Google shut it down, and replaced it with some crippled thing in Google Analytics.
- laktek 14y agoYou can create two different versions of a page and use something like Google Website Optimizer right?
- troymc 14y agoWhy not use Optimizely? Just add one line of HTML your <head> and you're good to go. (It loads some JS.) https://www.optimizely.com/ https://www.optimizely.com/
- sdoering 14y agoWell, what about Genetify (https://github.com/gregdingle/genetify/wiki https://github.com/gregdingle/genetify/wiki)? I tried it once and it was quite interesting... easy to setup and really easy to use. Just my two cents...
