homepage takeover
a/b testing
A collaboration between Marketing and Product to determine how best to increase user engagement and donations on CapRadio’s homepage. We A/B tested a modernized pushdown banner against a custom homepage takeover, ultimately driving measurable impact on donation goals.
My Role
As Front-End Developer, I:
-
Translated mockups into a functional, accessible takeover feature.
-
Rebuilt the takeover as a full-page pop-up after identifying limitations in the initial structure.
-
Ensured compatibility with VWO, aligning technical execution with stakeholder goals.
What I Built
-
Custom homepage takeover built and integrated into the CMS infrastructure.
-
Refactored legacy pushdown banners for clean compatibility with VWO’s A/B testing tools.
-
Implemented with HTML/CSHTML, CSS/LESS, and Umbraco CMS for seamless deployment and testing.
The Outcome
-
14% increase in donation button clicks across multiple A/B testing rounds.
-
No notable user complaints, validating the approach while supporting CapRadio’s fundraising efforts.
