Guide to hiring a CRO agency
Conversion rate optimisation (CRO) is the discipline of systematically improving the percentage of website visitors who take a desired action — making a purchase, filling in a form, or booking a demo. Even small improvements in conversion rate can dramatically outperform equivalent gains in traffic.
What is CRO?
CRO combines quantitative analysis (Google Analytics, heatmaps, session recordings, funnel analysis) with qualitative research (user interviews, surveys, usability testing) to identify friction points in the user journey. Agencies then design, develop, and test solutions through A/B and multivariate testing, iterating based on statistical significance before rolling out winning variants.
When should you hire a CRO agency?
CRO delivers the highest ROI when your site already has meaningful traffic (typically 10,000+ monthly visitors to key landing pages) but conversion rates feel low for your sector. It's particularly valuable before scaling paid advertising — fixing conversion leaks first means every pound of ad spend works harder.
What to look for in a CRO agency
- Rigorous testing methodology — proper statistical significance thresholds, not cherry-picked results
- Data-first approach — they should review your Analytics, heatmaps, and recordings before recommending anything
- Development capability — can they build the test variants themselves, or do they need your team's involvement?
- Communication of hypothesis and learnings — what did this test teach us, win or lose?
- Experience with your platform (Shopify, WordPress, custom stack)
How much does CRO cost?
CRO agency retainers typically range from £2,000–£5,000/month for ongoing testing programmes (2–4 tests per month), up to £8,000–£15,000/month for comprehensive programmes with research, UX design, and high-velocity testing. One-time CRO audits and roadmaps typically cost £3,000–£8,000.
Frequently asked questions about CRO agencies
What's a good conversion rate for my website?
It varies widely by industry, traffic source, and conversion type. eCommerce average is 2–4%; B2B lead generation landing pages typically convert at 3–8%. The most meaningful benchmark is your own historical performance — are you improving month over month?
How long does a CRO test need to run?
Tests need to reach statistical significance, which requires a sufficient number of conversions per variant — typically 300–500 conversions per variant minimum. This can take 2–8 weeks depending on your traffic volume. Running tests for too short a period leads to false conclusions.
