Effective Landing Pages

Effective Landing Pages A landing page is the first page the web user arrives at using a specific URL, or clicking a link in an email or at another site. They are popular because they are more effective at accomplishing their purpose than standard pages. However, there are certain characteristics that effective landing pages have in common - here are seven of those characteristics. 1. The landing page should have only one objective.

Successful Landing Page Design

Successful Landing Page Design There are landing pages and then there are landing pages - some succeed, some don't. What differentiates yours from the ones that don't? It's simple - your landing page is meant for your visitor, who is your potential buyer. If your landing page is not designed to lure, captivate and retain this visitor's interest for long enough to make a commitment, then it's no good. 1. Simplicity You have about 5 to 6 seconds in which you either grab your customer's attention, or lose him or her forever.
