		<description>Is it so hard to use the word “lose” instead of “loose” when lose is what you mean? It’s carelessness like this that lessens credibility.

		<description>Natalie --

The verb &quot;lose&quot;, as in &quot;to lose weight&quot;, is spelled with one &quot;o&quot;.  The adjective &quot;loose&quot;, as in &quot;I&#039;d like to lose 10 pounds to make my pants loose around my waist&quot;, is spelled with two &quot;o&quot;s.

Please make a note of it.</description>

		<description>I agree on the Continuous Improvement solution.

And best part is that if you only use 10 hours a month, you can do it on a whole portfolio of websites.</description>

		<description>Great article!

I think the analogy is missing a small aspect that we don’t talk enough about.

Sometimes at the beginning of the optimizing process we might actually harm conversion rates…

So, people who go on a diet need to be ready to gain a few pounds on the way before they start seeing real results :)</description>

		<description>My wife completely stopped eating sugar last spring. She&#039;s lost 23lbs and looks so good, and stopped there. It&#039;s like her body just found it&#039;s right weight after getting the right nutrition. It&#039;s because of this that I could not agree more.</description>

		<description>This is a great article and ties in perfectly with our site.  We are committing to the diet plan (conversion diet that is) whereby we commit a certain amount of time each month to increase our conversion rate.

As you say, it does pay.

Thanks Natalie.</description>
