Secrets
About Landing Pages Revealed!
In
order to create a top landing page, put yourself
in your clients' shoes and honestly define what
you would want to find and get when clicking on
your link, and give it to them straightforward;
otherwise, be prepared to be closed and substituted
by a more powerful link.
When reading your website's landing page, users
must immediately understand how you can help them
and their response must get you closer to your
goal. Remember that virtual communication must
be direct, concise, clear and very useful, thus,
any landing page should assist your goals and
your clients in this ways.
Do not worry! The secret is being revealed...
follow this advice when creating a landing page
and experience huge success. This is where the
majority of landing pages commonly fail, so gain
a competitive advantage right away.
- A landing page should contain a complete sales
process. From offering a product or service, to
holding the client's attention, captivating him
or her and eventually inspiring some action, the
landing page is where your website's strongest
message and ability should be.
- In a few seconds you gain or lose a client.
When the customer scans the landing page, he must
be able to identify significant factors that convince
him or her to stay.
- The landing page is your introduction letter
to new visitors. Before knowing what your site
is all about and how you can help them, they will
be scanning your landing page, so direct it towards
new clients; choose your vocabulary and explanations
carefully to aim at them. Your returning customers
already know all about you and will go straight
to the page that serves them.
Once you master and develop a professional landing
page, you can enhance it even more with special
design tricks like this:
- Look professional. The landing page gives your
company's first impression in front of new clients,
so make it credible. Double check grammar and
spelling, formatting and spacing and use a clean
and clear font in a friendly size. Colors and
use of space say a lot about professionalism too,
so, if in doubt, remember, less is more. Make
sure your landing page design fits and empowers
the industry your company belongs to.
- Portray your reputation. Show new customers
your worth through testimonials, credentials,
titles, badges or any other symbol that certifies
the quality of your products or services.
- Confirm everything works. Links and images must
be working impeccably. Make sure your landing
page is supported by different browsers so that
everyone can see it well.
- Simplify. Let the content be king on the landing
page. Support your message, don't jinx it. Forget
about distractions; links to other pages, logo,
brands, images, videos or special offers and help
your potential clients focus. Keep it simple to
maximize the space devoted to the offer and benefits
and only use the above if they efficiently support
the message.
- Keep consistent and honest communication. Always
focus the landing page on the message you sent
through the advertisement; use the same language,
keywords, images and phrases in both to ratify
its importance, and only make promises you can
or intend to keep. Speak in your market's language
to hit them accurately, communicate the benefits
and not the characteristics, people buy what serves
them, not what looks great.
- Make it personal. If possible, include your
client's name in the landing page, people feel
important and valuable when a meaningful message
is delivered specially for them.
- Organize the information. Key information should
go on top. Make it easy to read by writing small
paragraphs with simple vocabulary, use colors
to emphasize important terms or phrases and aid
on scanning the text and images to support the
message. Clearly portray your call to action so
that clients identify fast how to get your offer
and give them several ways to buy, some people
do not like to buy via the web.
- Design simple forms. Make it easy for the client
to fill the required forms to get the products.
Ask only the necessary information and do not
get too personal. Use standard design for buttons,
links and such to avoid loosing the client while
he discovers how things work in your site.
There you go! You're set to develop a winning
landing page, sure to get you many new customers
and keep them satisfied and coming back for more.
