Unfortunately, many fail to achieve the average 2-3% rate which renowned businesses flaunt, let alone surpass the 5% only a few of today\u2019s advertisers achieve. One of the possible reasons for this is the lack of landing pages.Landing pages, in general, are pages which receive traffic from anywhere other than the pages on your website. These are ideally used as destinations in pay-per-click ads, to tease about a product launch, and to create multiple offers that appeal to different segments of your audience. Regardless of their purpose, rest assured that they\u2019ll convert your visitors into buyers\u2026 if made right.But First \u2013 How Can a Landing Page Boost Conversion Rates?According to Omniture, landing pages can improve businesses\u2019 conversion rates by 25% at the least. This is because these pages deliver the following benefits.1) Stronger Message MatchLanding pages are mainly used to complement pay-per-click ads, further detailing the offer which brought visitors to you in the first place. Without one, you\u2019ll miss out on the power of Message Match and its ability to boost your conversion rates. Simply put, Message Match is a measure of how closely your landing page copy matches the ad or link which visitors clicked to get to you. By abiding by this simple rule, you\u2019ll be able to effectively reassure people that they\u2019ve come to the right place. This, in turn, will increase conversions. On the other hand, directing visitors to a page that doesn\u2019t mention the offer (your homepage, for instance) will mislead them. Only a very few will take the opportunity to explore your website, and that too if it\u2019s exquisitely designed and content rich. The rest are bound to navigate away within seconds, feeling cheated since you failed to maintain your message across every campaign touch point. Even then, a high bounce rate is the least of your worries. The last thing you need is for disappointed visitors to lash out on social media, publicizing their poor user experience on your site and driving potential clients further away. \u00a0\u00a02) Reduced Clutter \u00a0One of the biggest benefits of landing pages lies in their narrowed focus. Since they only tackle one product, service or offer at a time, they eliminate the clutter that could distract visitors from taking the action you want them to take. Landing pages give you more control to direct your visitors while ensuring that that they find what they\u2019re looking for faster. This, in turn, will help you achieve another benefit: better search engine rankings. Search engines like Google value relevancy and appreciate websites\u2019 efforts to ensure that people find what they\u2019re looking for. So, it\u2019s really multiple wins in one go.3) Valuable InsightLanding pages can help you gather valuable information that could help you tweak your offerings, advertising messages, and overall marketing technique. For instance, multiple landing pages used as destinations for your PPC ads will allow you to test, track and analyze the performance of the keywords you use. On the other hand, creating a page to generate a buzz around a product launch will help you analyze the demand for what you\u2019re about to offer. If you create the landing page before creating the actual product, you\u2019ll be able to cut your losses early and only produce a limited stock which you can sell off quickly before moving on to your next idea.Landing pages are equally valuable for collecting and reporting data on your audience. By creating different pages tailored specifically to your audience segments, you\u2019ll gain more insight on who\u2019s actually interested in your brand and start tweaking your advertising messages. As you segment offers according to your audience, you\u2019ll further discover what appeals most to your visitors and deliver as per their expectations. You\u2019ll also get the chance to analyze underperforming offers, brainstorming to improve their appeal.And the best part of it all? All the information you collect from your landing pages is quite accurate. Unlike the other pages on your site, there aren\u2019t many potential pathways through which your visitors can wander off to. With no competing information on your landing page, you\u2019ll be able to produce precise, to-the-point campaign-specific reports.4) Better Decisions and More Effective ChangesYour customers and what they perceive your brand to be are important factors for determining your conversion rates. To discover these, you\u2019ll need to constantly test different elements, including calls to action (CTA), copy length, and form lengths. However, testing each of these elements on your homepage is very costly and downright tedious. This is where landing pages can help.Landing pages allow you to continuously conduct A\/B and Multivariate (MVT) tests. MVT tests are especially beneficial for squeezing the most conversions since they allow you to test different combinations of page elements. As a result, you can remove any barriers that could possibly be preventing visitors from converting. Moreover, you\u2019ll gain insight into your customers\u2019 behavioral traits as well as the messages, images, and information they tend to respond to the most.How to Create the RIGHT Landing PageAs tempting as the above four benefits may be, you have your work cut out for you. Not only do you need to know the essential elements that guarantee higher conversion rates, you should be aware of the rules of great landing pages. The following lines will go over most of these. Even then, though, you\u2019ll be merely scratching the surface, which is why you shouldn\u2019t hesitate to trust the experts with designing and creating this valuable tool.Our 10 Landing Page Elements for Higher ConversionsOur Landing Page Development team has successfully helped many businesses improve their conversion rates with the help of only ten thoroughly-tested elements.Logo\u00a0Displaying your brand\u2019s logo prominently allows you to establish yourself as a reputable, trustworthy business. You can also use it to link visitors to your main website\u2019s home page, ensuring that they know more about you.Headline\u00a0 The headline is the first thing a visitor reads once they\u2019re on your landing page. It helps them decide whether to stay there or bounce. So, you need to have a killer headline with a strong message match.Offer\u00a0 The offer is what brought the visitor to your sight in the first place. It needs to be relevant to the ad and capable of enticing visitors to actually make a purchase.Descriptive Copy\u00a0 The text on your landing page is important for both visitors and search engines. For visitors, the text should provide the information they need, guaranteeing excellent user experience. It should also engage them and drive them to move on to the rest of your site. Ensuring that the text can be picked and understood by Google bots is also important since it increases the landing page\u2019s visibility to users searching in your business\u2019 niche.Product Presentation\u00a0 Landing pages should include relevant pictures of the product or service they\u2019re advertising. Images are high converting assets that guarantee a better user experience. However, it\u2019s important to also add alt text, labels, and captions to images to help Google recognize what they\u2019re about.Calls-to-Action (CTAs)\u00a0CTAs should be designed to enable users to perform the action you want them to take. You can consider using more than one if your landing page\u2019s copy is quite long, but limit them to one CTA per screen size.Trust\/Confidence Building\u00a0 Trust elements such as third-party reviews and testimonials are vital for the success of a landing page and ensuring higher conversion rates. These promise new visitors a memorable customer experience and will help you generate more sales. \u00a0\u00a0Contact Information\u00a0 In addition to being a trust building element, your contact information clearly outlines who you are and what your brand (and site) is all about. Adding a physical address (if you\u2019re not a 100% online business) and\/or a phone number further proves your credibility as a legitimate business.Links to More Information\u00a0 For Google to deem your landing page as helpful, authoritative, and useful, you\u2019ll need to include links to more information on your main site. This may go against what most service providers have been promoting over the years. However, not being able to learn more about your brand forces visitors to press the back button, wasting your efforts and the money you invest in paid ads.Template Elements\u00a0 Template elements such as the top navigation bar or website\u2019s footer are important to Google as they establish how reputable and trustworthy your website is.Five Rules for Creating Effective Landing PagesIn addition to our ten landing page elements, there are a few golden rules which can ensure the results you seek. Here are five that our team abides by religiously.Match Headlines with Users\u2019 Search Queries\u00a0To improve both your conversion rate and search engine optimization, ensure that your headlines match search queries. To determine the latter, put yourself in your potential clients\u2019 shoes and ask, \u201cWhat do my users expect from my landing page?\u201d if you don\u2019t have the resources to conduct marketing tests and create psychological profiles, use headlines with direction. Tell your visitors where to go, what to do, and how to do it. Doing so will allow you to address visitors\u2019 wants, needs or fears, boosting your conversion rates. Be inspired by Carelogger\u2019s landing page, which featured the headline \u201cMaintain your Optimal Health, by keeping tabs on your diabetes\u201d.Keep Your Copy Clear, Concise and Simple\u00a0You can improve the conversion rates of your landing page by including everyday language rather than technical jargon. Even if one of your products\u2019 features is complex, take a page from Apple\u2019s book and embrace the \u2018less is more\u2019 paradigm. Describing Siri, it wrote, \u201cUse your voice to send messages, set reminders, search for information and more\u201d. \u00a0Stay Focused on Your Customer\u00a0 Anyone visiting your landing pages should know that they\u2019re very important and valued. You won\u2019t be able to accomplish that by using \u2018I\u2019 or \u2018We\u2019 often in your text as self-centered language indicates that you only care about yourself and how much will go into your pockets. Your copy should put the user in a position of control and convenience to ensure a good conversion rate. A great example for this point comes from AwayFind. By substituting its headline \u201cLet us find urgent messages\u201d with \u201cLet urgent emails cut through the clutter and fine you\u201d, the app developer increased signups by 91%.Become a Brand Visitors Will Trust\u00a0 Aside from trust building elements, consider increasing the security measures on the landing page. This is especially true if visitors will be sharing personal and financial data with you. A good idea would be to include third-party credentials to back up your promises of better security.Don\u2019t Forget the Element of Fun Whenever Possible\u00a0 Your landing pages\u2019 visitors are bound to respond the way you want them to if you use emotional pleasure cues. For instance, a landing page for a new car can highlight how its owners will enjoy more freedom, turn heads as they drive by, and become the envy of others. You can also emphasize on how pleasure is a by-product of the product or service. For example, if you\u2019re selling arthritis-relief medication, let your copy reflect that you\u2019re selling freedom, relief and joy with each bottle. Once you make your way to visitors\u2019 hearts, you\u2019re bound to win their business.Landing pages have the power to convince customers to come further into a site and interact with it.
