We have some proven conversion-boosting guidelines that you can apply to any landing page you make.</p><h2>Landing Page &#8211; Amazing Copy?</h2><p>It doesn&#8217;t matter if you write amazing copy if your prospects don&#8217;t really get your headline. The headline does more than bring people into your <a
href="http://www.robselaney.com">landing page</a>, it also lets them know what it is all about. There are some copywriters who will write up to one hundred headlines looking for the one. In a very real way headlines serve as a filter so people who are not appropriate for the offer will not read the copy. So then we come to the matter of what you think your best benefit is, or perhaps the USP which is unique selling proposition. If you use the benefit driven method in your headline, then also make sure you explain what the landing page is all about in the first place. That&#8217;s how you grab attention and get more and more prospects interested in your offer. Your landing page is not about you. As always, it is about the person reading the page who hopefully is in your target market. Consumers are single-minded in that they are only concerned about what you have to give to them, today. However, telling them what you have for them is the fun part, but it needs to be properly done so they optin for it. If your copy is not crystal clear on that huge part, then you are in trouble. When you keep your mind on delivering to the person reading the page, then that will help to keep you on track. When every reader can easily follow your copy and understand well, then that will help, immensely.</p><p>Marketers typically do not include things like guarantees and the like on their landing page, and there really is not reason to do so.</p><h3>Landing Page &#8211; Take Action&#8230;</h3><p>You need to make your prospects feel comfortable when they are taking the action that you want them to take. There is nothing wrong with talking about a guarantee on your landing page, but that is really not the best place to put it. The above article clearly explains the importance of applying the right tips to get your landing page to give you results. Business leads are the lifeblood of any business, so do not delay putting this into affect on your landing page.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.robselaney.com/landing-pages/how-to-approach-landing-page-conversion-optimization/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>How to Write the Best Landing Page</title><link>http://www.robselaney.com/landing-pages/how-to-write-the-best-landing-page</link> <comments>http://www.robselaney.com/landing-pages/how-to-write-the-best-landing-page#comments</comments> <pubDate>Wed, 11 May 2011 08:48:53 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Rob</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Landing Pages]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Internet Marketing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[landing page]]></category> <category><![CDATA[make money from home]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Web Design]]></category> <guid

In other words, if you want traffic that will convert highly, sells products and gets leads for you, then you must produce a very effective landing page. So how do you go about writing a high converting copy for your landing page? We will look into this.</p><p> Only Ask for What is Required: It isn&#39;t hard to get tired when you land on a page that wants too many different things. Your landing pages must be very focused to ensure that you are getting the most from your readers. You should only get info that is needed to get a particular action such as making a sale or getting a lead. Remember, you are not doing a market survey where your prospect has to give all of his personal information. Your whole purpose is to get visitor conversions, which will not happen if you are asking for too many details. Each question that is asked has the potential of decreasing your chances of converting a visitor. Be as focused as you can. Be sensible. Your landing page cannot say that it converts its readers until the readers are not bombarded with a lot of un-needed questions before they can do what you want them to.</p><p> Write Long Copy Only When Needed:</p><p> There&#39;s always a heavy debate when it comes down to the length of the copy &#8211; long or short? In order to make the best selection, determine how each will affect your goal. What outcome do you want to achieve as a result of your landing page? Do you want to see more sales? Are you hoping to obtain more leads? Get people to your website? Based upon many things, you should have an ideal about the information that your readers want before they will buy your product. For example, if you&#39;re selling a product that&#39;s worth $200, then it&#39;s obvious that you&#39;ll have to include the core benefits and provide enough information to lead the visitor to the call to action. But then again, if you collect email leads on your landing page, you could make your point with a short amount of ad copy. So writing a longer copy will boil down to your reason for needing it. Only utilize it if you have to.</p><p> Remove All Distractions: Eliminate any thing that will turn your reader&#39;s attention away from the main goal of your landing page. This could be in the form of visual clutter such as extra graphics or it could be links to other sections. The last thing you want is your visitors wander around and leave your landing page without taking the desired action. It all consists of making sure that things will remain on track and still be short and sweet. The focus of your readers should be on your copy, pictures and your promotional offer. Your visitor will feel at ease when your lading page doesn&#39;t look too complicated and presents the needed information in a logical manner. When you begin removing these attention grabbers you will start to see an increase in your conversion rates.</p><p> There are a lot of tools available that will help you to improve your landing page and get more conversions. However, not one of these will aid you if the core of your landing page, which is the copy, is not handled properly. So go ahead and apply what you&#39;ve learned here to get the most out of your landing page.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.robselaney.com/landing-pages/how-to-write-the-best-landing-page/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Ways to Amplify the Trust Level of Your Landing Page</title><link>http://www.robselaney.com/landing-pages/ways-to-amplify-the-trust-level-of-your-landing-page</link> <comments>http://www.robselaney.com/landing-pages/ways-to-amplify-the-trust-level-of-your-landing-page#comments</comments> <pubDate>Sat, 19 Mar 2011 09:29:42 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Rob</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Landing Pages]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Internet Marketing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[landing page]]></category> <category><![CDATA[make money from home]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Web Design]]></category> <guid
