What backup and recovery plans should I have for CRO changes?

As an e-commerce manager, I'm deeply concerned about potential risks when implementing conversion rate optimization (CRO) changes. I've seen horror stories of well-intentioned experiments completely breaking sales funnels or causing unexpected revenue drops. I need a comprehensive strategy to protect my store's performance, ensure quick recovery if something goes wrong, and maintain business continuity during CRO testing. What systematic approach can I develop to minimize risks and have robust backup and recovery protocols?
