Welcome to PageTest.AI! In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to use your dashboard to view, interpret, and manage your live content tests—so you can make data-driven decisions that improve conversions and on-page SEO.


Getting Started

When you log into your PageTest.AI account, you'll land on the dashboard. Here’s what you’ll see and how to understand it:

Dashboard Metrics

  • Websites – The number of websites you’ve connected.

  • Pages – Total number of individual pages with live tests.

  • Tests – Number of content tests you've created.

  • Variants – Number of different content variations across all tests.

  • Impressions – How many times these tests have been shown to users.

  • Recommendations – Total winning variations PageTest.AI has identified so far.


Visualizing Your Testing Data

Test Impressions (Daily)

You’ll see a daily chart showing how your impressions are distributed across your websites. This gives you a quick snapshot of your testing volume over time.

Content Test Recommendations

Scroll down to the bottom of the dashboard to find active improvement suggestions. These highlight content tests where PageTest.AI has found statistically significant improvements.

For example, you might see a test on your homepage’s main CTA button showing a 241% improvement in clicks with one of the test variants.


Exploring a Content Test in Detail

Click any recommendation to jump into the specific page and test.

There, you’ll see:

  • Test name and page context

  • Your control content (the original version)

  • Each variant being tested

  • The split percentage (how traffic is divided between variants)

  • Total impressions and click results

  • Performance indicators:

    • Green: Performing better than the control

    • Red/Pink: Underperforming compared to the control

    • Gold Trophy: The current top-performing variant (aka the winner)

Example

If your control CTA is: “Get my app free”, and a test variant “Make my app free and easy” shows a 306% improvement, PageTest.AI will flag that as the winning recommendation.

This means you can confidently implement the change to improve performance.


Navigating Between Tests

Back on the dashboard, you can:

  • Filter tests by URL

  • See test names and assigned priorities (higher priorities get more impressions)

  • Track multiple tests on a single page

  • Spot wins quickly with green and gold indicators

You can also toggle between date ranges and set a custom reporting window for deeper insight.


Using the Chrome Extension

The Chrome extension syncs directly with your dashboard.

When you open a page with active tests and click “Test This Page,” you’ll see:

  • All tests linked to that page

  • Element names (e.g., headline, button, strapline)

  • Variant priorities matching what’s shown in the dashboard

This makes it easy to confirm which elements are live, test settings, and track performance.

Managing Tests

From the dashboard, you can:

  • Pause or activate tests

  • Adjust test priorities

  • Dive into each element’s performance

  • Use filters to find tests by page, site, or improvement level


Implementing Winning Variants

When a test reaches statistical significance, PageTest.AI recommends the winning variant. You can then:

  • Review performance metrics

  • See how much better it performed vs. the control

  • Manually implement the content change on your site

This leads to better on-page SEO, higher engagement, and improved conversion rates.


Plans & Limits

With the free plan, you get:

  • 10,000 test impressions per month

  • Run multiple tests across pages and variants

  • Access the full dashboard and test manager

Upgrade options are available if you need higher testing volumes.
