Variants B through n each contain one or more elements that are modified from the original. For example, a different colored call-to-action button. In some experiments, variant B may be a completely different version of a web page. Each variant is served at similar times so that its performance can be observed and measured independent of other external factors. You can also limit your experiment to a specific audience using the targeting feature. Optimize captures the performance data for each variant against an objective and...
