usability-testingIn the previous post I was talking about the importance of usability testing on software applications. In this post we are going to have a look at the usability testing on 2 web sites.

In the videos example below, you will see how a visitor interacted with two web sites “Mercedes and Bentley”. The test user had to accomplish 2 simple tasks – find prices and to book a test drive. Even though they are very basic tasks, they are very important for both websites. See which of them performed better.

Unfortunately, this is happening on many websites and without usability testing you won’t be able to find out. Anytime you visitor isn’t able to accomplish a task on your website you very likely loosing a sale. So make it easy for them and you will get rewarded by more sales.
