So, was the overlay more effective at conversions than no overlay at all?
I think this is a great article about how to measure overlay timing effectiveness, but didn't convince me that overlays work at all in general.
- aj_ycombinator 13y agoYes, the overlay became more effective. Saw 4-5x increase in sign up rate in some cohorts. It certainly gave a much higher sign-up rate than without any overlay. In fact, just trying a dismissable overhead banner was also not working as great as an overlay.
- bsirkia 13y agoAhh that's interesting. Was the overlay un-dismissible?
- aj_ycombinator 13y agoIt was dismissible. The whole idea was not to take an approach where the content is locked down.
