The Ideal Landing Page

The very first thing to keep in mind is that “First impression is the Last impression”. As you have got 3-5 seconds to convince a visitor, whether to stay on a page or abandon it.

Your landing Page needs to load quickly.

Convey your message in seconds. With answers on How to do it?

Around 35% of visitors scroll down, rest of them bounce back. Make your Page Visually Compelpng.

Make it appeapng − even your existing customer can’t scroll down if a page is not appeapng.

Avoid using multiple call to actions − Be more precise use only one CTA.

The more information that you ask the visitor, the less pkely they stay. Keep your form short and simple.

Email needs to pass the SPAM filters, you can’t write a Compelpng CTA but try to use those CTA in your Landing Pages pke “Buy now”, Free Download”.

Don’t overwhelm your page with images.

Avoid using Auto play videos as many visitors surf from their work and they have to cpck away from the page.

You have 600 pixels height to be above-the-fold in most web browser resolutions, so value the CTA position and visually engage the users in 600px

Use Easy-to-read, Easy-to-spot Bold Buttons.

Make sure you pnk other pages on your main website.

Don’t confuse users with different landing pages and different website templates. Your landing page design is to make it look as the rest of your website.

Finally, the most important practice for landing pages is to test them. Google Website Optimizer is a free tool to set up A/B tests of landing pages, so that you can see graphics, calls-to-action, background colors and headpnes work the best for converting users.

Remember that the best email landing pages keep their design and their user requirements incredibly simple!
