Traditionally, user research involves directly observing and talking with people in the context of their work. Researchers have travel to observe users in their natural environments or users/participants travel to a usability lab or focus-group facility. This is a solid source of user feedback and insights, unfortunately it’s expensive and time consuming.
Remote user research on the other hand allows researchers and users to interact remotely. Remote user research can be either: moderated when the researcher and the participants go through the research activity together, or unmoderated when the researcher is not involved during the study. Survey is an example.
In very curious if you’re here participating with a background knowledge on remote research.
Great, that’s something that I was hoping for
I’ll try to present in the way everybody could understand
1) Usually if you see that’s something’s wrong in GA paned you’d jump to AB testing.
2) How do you know which changes will bring significant improvement to your website?
People assume once they have the AB Testing software they can test everything
1) Unfortunately this takes time. AB Test can last weeks or event months until you get statistically significant results
2) I’d assume that you don’t want to waste your valuable traffic on that
So, what you have to do is to take a step back, and instead of guessing what the data means and shooting blind AB tests, validate your assumptions firs with website visitors.
You can ask your users directly
1) Or watch how they interact with your service or product
There are also many other ways to that you can get the ideas from, but we’ll not cover them in the webinar.
They range from analyzing your analytics to talking with the customer support department to brainstorming.
If you want to know more you can reach out to me after the webinar, and I’ll be more than happy to share what I know
Getting back to remote.
Context-driven – Remote research allows users to use their own computers, letting you and your team see how they set up their desktop, navigate within website, and use tabs, for instance. This gives insight into how people work in their natural environment,
Cheap – is a great solution for teams if you have limited budget; Scheduling a series of online studies can be far less costly than traveling around the the world in search for perfect target group.
Simple – most of the tools automatically collect, analyze, and present data in useful visualizations, eliminating time-consuming data collection, organization
Fast – usually it takes hours from launch to collect the results
Flexible – you can start/stop any time, launch many small test at the same time
Remote research lets you include people who would otherwise be left out, so you can have a more representative sample. With no geographical limits and higher numbers of participants, you can aim to get a truly representative sample of your users
