What is an A/B test? How to compare two ads or two messages
On this page 4
The short answer
An A/B test changes one element — the image, headline or offer — to make two versions, shows each to part of the audience at the same time, then compares the result that matters: orders, not likes.

Why does A/B test matter to a seller?
Because instinct misleads: the version you like may not sell. A test tells you in numbers, provided you change one thing and wait for enough results before judging.

In the ads manager the AI writes alternative versions to test, and each is measured in delivered orders. For WhatsApp messages, see the message testing guide.
Frequently asked questions
How long do I wait before judging the test?
Until each side has enough results, not a single day; a small early gap may be chance.
Do I change more than one element?
No; change the image and headline together and you will not know which made the difference.
What do I measure?
Delivered orders or sales, then cost per order; not clicks alone.
