It would be nice to see some follow up on the items "Need to run this test longer..." or "It's too early to tell..." items. You have a LOT of those, and for a growth hack to be valuable, you need to see some results.

Since you post the hack without the results, it's harder for people to learn from your actions here. Can you do some updates for the earlier rounds?

I hear you. But some are hard to measure and some just takes longer than a few days to show results. I will probably follow up on the earlier rounds, and maybe also update the posts as well with the results. Though for every day there's one more "hack" to follow up on.

I can also imagine a lot of the data getting muddled as a result.

Do more people click the signup button because you made it bigger and changed the copy, or is it because you reduced the clutter in the footer reducing distraction for the user?

I know what you mean. Many of the hacks' results may collide. I wonder what a possible solution to that problem could be?
