Difficulty Using GWO?

[Gab-Goldenberg]

I've tried several times to use GWO, and I can handle copy-pasting some code etc... yet despite this, it seems that I can't get GWO right. Furthermore, it appears to me that a lot of the things you'd like to test require fancier manipulation of GWO than the standard setup allows for.

Do you guys also find GWO to lack user-friendliness? Are other platforms easier to use and get right?

I find GWO is suitable for nearly everything I need, although sometimes coding skills are needed.

I've heard that visual website optimizer is very easy to use, but have not yet used it myself.

I've never had a problem with GWO as long as the code is implemented properly. Make sure you've got the code exactly where they tell you to put it.

Would you mind providing a little more detail on what problems you are having in GWO?

Well, the test I just ended showed me, in the previews, all the same instead of the variations I thought I'd created...

In the past, tests I tried setting up just simply didn't work. Wordpress is quite difficult in spite of plugins and assertions to the contrary.

do you guys have any recommended resources on learning GWO?

[brycebertola]

Google has some great help resources when it comes to their products. I would check the GWO help section first.
