youtu.be Links are coming!

reitz — Tue, 29 Dec 2009 02:01:51 +0000

Ok, I thought this was fake when I first heard about it last week. BUT it looks to be true. Youtube now has a URL shortener! Pretty cool! Makes it easier to tweet about of course! Enjoy!

To use youtu.be manually, simply take a URL like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FdeioVndUhs and replace the”http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=” with “http://youtu.be/” to get: http://youtu.be/FdeioVndUhs Plug that shorter URL into a browser, and you'll see it redirects to that video.

YouTube Blog: Look Inside a 1,024 Recipe Multivariate Experiment

reitz — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 03:08:12 +0000

I started noticing changes on the YouTube header a few weeks ago! This just goes to show how little changes can make a big difference to conversions/sales!

Do small changes make a big difference? In the world of landing page testing, they certainly can. A few weeks ago, we ran one of the largest multivariate experiments ever: a 1,024 recipe experiment on 100% of our US-English homepage. Utilizing Google Website Optimizer, we made small changes to three sections on our homepage (see below), with the goal of increasing the number of people who signed up for an account. The results were impressive: the new page performed 15.7% better than the original, resulting in thousands more sign-ups and personalized views to the homepage every day.

WOW. This is a major story… should we really trust all of our data with Google / YouTube ?!? Am a little stunned by this verdict… well, in reality if you aren’t doing anything stupid with Google, then you are fine… like me… maybe this is a non-story… anyways… makes you think one way or another.
