What it Takes to Design High Converting Landing Pages

November 29, 2011

Yes, it can be difficult to write about web business processes because you do not know how far to go with explaining everything. We tend to think that achieving a fully comprehensive understanding about FB influence will not be done in one sitting.

So it is not a good idea to just wade into anything without taking time to learn and get a feel that your knowledge is sufficient to keep you out of trouble.

That is often the difference with success, some people do bother to learn more about something, and that enables them to be more effective with their business. When you think about it, those who allow themselves to become stagnant in business are the ones who get left behind. Also, do not forget to roll-out in smaller test runs because sometimes that will reveal a problem you can correct.

There are some important and major differences between landing pages and regular website home pages. It isn’t hard to figure out what’s what when you consider what is going on with those pages. While both situations have their own purpose, the landing page is more immediate in nature. This is the page that will help you get the response that you really desire to have fulfilled by your visitors. When you’ve got this sort of situation the entire dynamic will change and that will change the way that you approach everything you need to do. Your frame of mind is going to be different when you’re trying to design your page and you’ll be using your design tools differently.

Most of the call to action copy on the net is direct, forceful and to the point. It’s important to test calls to action that isn’t as direct or as compelling.

There are more and more people who aren’t as appreciative of being ordered to do something. Your call to action is better served by including words and phrases like “trying” and “learning more”, etc. “Download” or “Download Now!” can put people off, but “Learn More” seems less in your face. Just remember to avoid using words that might be confusing or overly vague.

The landing page has quite a lot going on in quite a small space when you compare it to the rest of your website. And yet it has the amazing responsibility of generating leads for your business. Make sure that everything is sharply focused on the core of your message. You don’t need to have lots of complicated navigation, however, because the truth is that what you want the most is for the reader to complete your call to action. Regardless of niche, it is important to choose the correct amount of copy. But even with non-internet marketing related niches, you do want to keep the copy very tight.

Since you know that stay or leave decisions can occur in a split second for new visitors, you want to get a feel for your site before making it live. Practice going to your website as many times as you need to and then see what your initial impression of it might be. Make sure you do this at least a dozen times and make sure you are as emotionally distant from the page as possible. It will be helpful to ask people you know to help you out with this kind of test. Ask them for their feedback as well as what their first reactions to the page are–no matter what kind of reaction they have.

There is so much more to landing pages than people realize and a new Internet marketer usually doesn’t have any idea about this. There aren’t any surprises, then, when landing pages don’t do what they want them to do and aren’t able to perform the tasks the owners want them to perform. If you do not have a good and solid grasp on the inner natures of landing pages and how they work, you won’t ever get anywhere.

You’ll be happy to learn that it’s possible to counteract that by doing your homework, learning everything you can and putting in a vigorous testing program.
