Landing Pages
Best Practices
Sending paid traffic to your homepage is like sending someone to a mall and hoping they find your store. Landing pages focus the visitor on one action. Here is how to build ones that convert.
Anatomy of a High-Converting Landing Page
- Hero section: Clear headline, subheadline, and CTA above the fold
- Social proof: Reviews, testimonials, or press logos
- Benefits: What the customer gets (not features)
- Product showcase: Images or video showing the product
- Objection handling: FAQ or trust signals
- Final CTA: Repeat the call to action at the bottom
Headlines That Hook
Your headline has 3 seconds to convince someone to stay. Make it count.
- Lead with the benefit, not the product
- Be specific: "Get clearer skin in 14 days" beats "Great skincare"
- Match the ad copy that brought them here
- Keep it under 10 words
Message match is critical. If your ad says "50% off running shoes," your landing page headline should mention running shoes and 50% off. Disconnects kill conversions.
Design Principles
- One goal per page: Remove distracting navigation
- Visual hierarchy: Guide the eye to the CTA
- White space: Do not crowd the page
- Contrast: CTA button should be the most visible element
- Speed: Under 3 seconds load time, always
Copy That Converts
- Write like you talk — clear, direct, no jargon
- Focus on "you" not "we"
- Use short paragraphs and bullet points
- Address objections before they arise
- Include a clear, action-oriented CTA ("Get yours today" not "Submit")
Mobile Optimization
Most ad traffic lands on mobile. Your landing page must be mobile-first.
- Thumb-friendly CTA buttons
- Readable text without zooming
- Images that load fast on cellular
- Sticky CTA that follows the scroll
Testing and Iteration
- Test headlines first — they have the biggest impact
- Try different hero images or videos
- Experiment with CTA button colors and text
- Test long-form vs short-form pages
- Run tests for at least 1,000 visitors per variation
