Landing Page CRO — independently scanned and version-tracked by SaferSkills.
SaferSkills independently audited Landing Page CRO (Agent Skill) and scored it 100/100 (green). The audit ran 55 deterministic rules across Security, Supply Chain, Maintenance, Transparency, and Community; it found 0 high-severity and 0 lower-severity findings. The full rule-by-rule trace and per-finding evidence are below. Free, methodology-open.

The primary manifest — the file an agent reads to learn what this artifact does.
Conversion rate optimization is not applying best practices - it is forming specific hypotheses from real user evidence, testing them, and iterating. The costly failure this skill prevents is the redesign roulette: shipping a batch of untested "improvements" that mixes winners with losers, moves nothing, and teaches nothing, while paid spend keeps landing on a leaky page.
Order is strict: audit before hypotheses (a hypothesis without an observation is a guess), hypotheses before prioritization, prioritization before tests, and significance before verdicts.
Collect before auditing. Label anything assumed as a guess.
Collect two evidence types:
The audit must answer three questions: where are users leaving, what are they clicking that does not help them convert, and what objections repeat verbatim.
Run the message-match check first - it is the single most common CRO failure: the ad makes a specific promise and the page delivers a generic brand statement. Every paid source must land on a page whose headline directly echoes the ad's offer. If one page serves multiple campaigns, prescribe dynamic text replacement or dedicated pages per major campaign theme before any other test.
Then audit the five highest-leverage elements, in order of typical impact: (1) headline - must match the ad's promise and speak to a specific pain; (2) primary CTA - text, position, contrast; (3) social proof - specificity beats volume; a named customer quote outperforms a star rating; (4) above-the-fold visual - must show the outcome, not the product; (5) form/checkout friction - every unnecessary field reduces conversion. Fix these before testing background colors or font sizes.
Every hypothesis uses this exact format: "Because [observation from audit], changing [element] to [proposed change] will [expected measurable outcome] for [audience]." No observation means it is a guess and does not enter the backlog. Write hypotheses before mockups - the thinking matters more than the execution.
Score each hypothesis 1-10 on Impact (how much it moves CVR if true), Confidence (strength of the evidence behind it), and Ease (speed to build and test), then multiply. Run the top score first. Run at most two simultaneous tests on the same page - more complicates interpretation. Change one variable per test; a test that changes headline and CTA together cannot attribute its own result.
Roll out the winner, record the result against the hypothesis, re-score the backlog (a win often changes Confidence on related hypotheses), and return to Step 4.

RUN ORDER: #1 first. One variable. Min sample: 100 conversions/variant, 95% sig,
full 2-week cycle. Result logged to test log regardless of outcome.Produce a CRO package containing: the audit findings (drop-off points, misleading clicks, verbatim objections, message-match verdict), a scored hypothesis backlog in the format above, the test plan for the top hypothesis (variable, sample size, significance standard, duration), and a test log structure for recording outcomes.
Ship only when: every hypothesis cites a specific audit observation; ICE scores are justified, not vibes; each planned test isolates one variable; the significance standard and sample floor are pre-committed in writing; message match is verified for every paid source; and the test log exists before the first test launches.
Writing net-new page copy is landing-page-copy; diagnosing the ad side of poor performance is paid-acquisition-audit; deep statistical readout of a completed experiment is ab-test-analyzer; funnel-wide drop-off beyond one page is funnel-analysis.
