SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? When facing open-ended CRO questions like "where do I start" or "why doesn't my site convert," teams often jump to redesigns or random optimizations without diagnosing the root cause. This Skill provides the psychological and strategic framework from Dylan Ander's Billion Dollar Websites methodology to diagnose which of the Five Pillars (Offer, UVPs, Copywriting, Creative, UI/UX) is actually failing before recommending any fix. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Five Pillars Diagnosis: Classify any conversion problem into Offer, UVP, Copy, Creative, or UI/UX failure, with MCP data signals mapped to each pillar. - Gator/Judge Psychology Model: Apply Kahneman System 1/System 2 thinking to evaluate whether page elements trigger hesitation or enable frictionless purchase decisions. - Redesign Pushback with Data: Counter redesign-first thinking using the empirical finding that only 1 of 20+ studied redesigns outperformed incremental testing. - MCP Recipes: Two executable recipes using Heatmap MCP tools (get_raw_pageview_analytics, get_raw_event_analytics, get_pageview_analytics) to triangulate the failing pillar from scroll depth, RPC, and RPS data. - Use Case: A user asks why their beautiful landing page has high engagement but low sales. The Skill guides analysis of the engagement-to-revenue ratio to detect Judge-activation pages, then maps the signal to the failing pillar. ## Quick Start Ask Claude to diagnose which of the Five Pillars is failing on your landing page using last month's heatmap analytics data.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I diagnose why my website is not converting?▼

Classify the problem into one of the Five Pillars: Offer, UVPs, Copywriting, Creative, or UI/UX. Use scroll depth, RPC per element, and RPS versus site average from heatmap analytics to identify which pillar is failing before recommending fixes.

What is the Gator and Judge model in conversion optimization?▼

The Gator is Kahneman's System 1, processing 11 million bits per second and controlling 95% of decisions. The Judge is System 2, slow and analytical. Confusing pages wake the Judge, creating doubt that kills conversions.

Should I redesign my website to improve conversion rate?▼

Usually no. In 20+ studied redesigns, only 1 beat incremental testing on the existing site. Redesigns reset familiarity signals and introduce bugs. Diagnose the failing pillar first and iterate incrementally instead.

How do I detect which page elements hurt conversions with heatmap data?▼

Query get_raw_event_analytics ordered by value, then compute RPC as revenue divided by value per selector. Elements with value above 30 and RPC below 0.05 are Conversion Killers pulling visitors off the purchase path.

When should I not start conversion optimization?▼

Do not optimize before running customer research through the Billion-Dollar Data Funnel, especially customer feedback surveys. Hypotheses not grounded in research data are guesses with low success rates.
