I am not a User Interface designer by any means, but when I was confronted with this order page I immediately popped a blood vessel in my brain and stalled on what to do next. If you have an e-commerce site, and your order page looks like this, STOP.  Do not do ONE MORE THING [...]

Here is a rudimentary solution that allows you to split test all metrics on your WordPress blog.  If there is legitimate usage of this, I will make changes and improvements but at this point I am just throwing together a 15 minute SOLUTION not a complete idiot-proof package.  Please, give me feedback, I appreciate it.  [...]
