Conversion rate optimization is making sure that the traffic that comes to your website actually does what you want them to do. There's a difference between driving traffic and making use of the traffic, so conversion rate optimization is making sure that the traffic, when it gets to your website, takes whatever your desired actions are so that you create a user journey for people.” Marty Greif, president of SiteTuners
