One of the better bets in Health & Wellness. Headline tests win 21% there, against 8% for headline tests across all industries and 12% for all change types within Health & Wellness. Ahead on both counts, which is the strongest signal this data offers — though see the note below on why these comparisons are not like-for-like.
It is the strongest change type we can currently measure in Health & Wellness.

| change type | win rate in Health & Wellness | tests |
|---|---|---|
| Headline (this page) | 21% | 100+ |
| Split URL | 10% | 48 tests |
| Styling | 5% | 50+ |
A win rate only means as much as the thing being counted, so this is what these tests were actually optimising for.
| measured outcome | share of tests |
|---|---|
| Purchase / order complete | 70% |
| Signup / registration | 8% |
| Subscription | 6% |
| Lead / form submission | 5% |
Outcomes below 5% of the set are not listed, so these do not sum to 100. How the outcome was measured moves the win rate a lot — see the methodology.
These rates are not like-for-like. How often a test wins depends partly on what it chose to measure: a goal that records a soft signal — a click, a scroll — clears the bar more often than one that records a purchase. Across this data, tests measured against a proxy goal win 13%, against 9% for tests measured against a business outcome.
Categories differ a lot in that mix — proxy goals account for anywhere from 2% to 41% of a category's tests.
Hold the metric fixed and the spread narrows sharply. Comparing only tests measured against a business outcome, the gap between the highest and lowest category falls from 9 points to 6 — at which point the intervals overlap and the categories are not statistically distinguishable.
So read the table as a description of what happened, not as a ranking of what works. If you want the comparison to mean something, compare categories that were measured the same way. The methodology page has the full breakdown.
The industry overview is at Health & Wellness benchmarks; rates across all industries are on the headline benchmark.
The main heading is rewritten. Structure, styling and every other element stay put.
The numbered list heading was changed to practice guidance, and the second item was retitled with a more emotive phrase.
The headline and description shifted from general workshop wording to focus on yogic tools for reducing overthinking and anxiety, and the CTA changed to begin a 3-day guided workshop and learn to control mood swings.
The headline changed from stating 7 steps to improve physical, mental, and spiritual health to inviting users to join a 21-day health challenge and begin their journey.
The headline stack changed to name yogic tools, add an overthinking and anxiety reduction promise, and include a 3-day workshop with the button text Begin Your Journey.
The headline was changed to mention a specific omega product, and the video source and poster were switched to a different omega video.
It changed the headline from pairing client results with practice growth to a two-line headline with supporting body copy about the device and a specialist CTA.
The headline changed from other options to wording that framed yoga as part of everyday practice.
These are individual tests, not rules. Each ran on one site, with one audience, against one page we are not showing you. They are picked to be illustrative rather than sampled at random, and a change that won here can lose on your page for reasons none of this captures. Read them as prompts for what to test, not as findings to copy.
This is every Mida account that ran a readable test — in-house marketers, founders, product teams, and agencies working on client sites. Nothing here is filtered by who ran the experiment or how experienced they are.
Low win rates are normal in experimentation, including at the top end. Microsoft's experimentation team, reporting on its own platform, found that only about one third of ideas improve the metric they were designed to improve — and that roughly another third actively hurt it. That is a dedicated experimentation organisation with research, prioritisation and review behind every test.
A mixed population like this one runs below that. The gap is roughly what disciplined practice buys you: ideas grounded in research rather than opinion, one variable at a time, and tests built so the result can actually be read.
So treat these as a general base rate, not a target. If you would rather not close that gap the slow way, find a CRO agency in the United States, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands or Australia — or browse every region.
A win is a variant that beat its control on that test's primary goal with a statistically significant result. Tests that never got enough traffic to say anything either way are excluded. The methodology has the full detail, including what these numbers cannot tell you.
