A landing page is a web page established with marketing and advertising campaigns in mind. When a lead clicks the link you gave in your emails, advertisements, or through organic promotion, you will direct them here.
It is referred to as a “static page,” “squeeze page,” “destination page,” “lead capture page,” or another marketing term by others.
Businesses use landing pages to persuade and direct prospects to a specific call to action, unlike websites designed for awareness and research. Put another way, a landing page’s primary goal is to convert visitors.
I’ll show you how to maximize your landing page’s potential.
Checklist For A High-Converting Landing Page
- Attention Bar
The attention bar can be found at the top of your landing page. Its primary purpose, as the name suggests, is to draw the attention of your target audience.
- Headline
Your landing page’s headline is the large, bold type. Make sure to emphasize the most important benefits of your offer in this section because the headline is the first thing your visitor will notice when they arrive at your landing page.
- Subheadline
This is the text that appears beneath the main headline. A subheadline aims to emphasize more benefits and immediately overcome your target market’s objections.
- Creative
You can use either a brief intro video or an image for this section. The next thing your viewers will see after reading your subheadline is creativity.
- Logo Bar
The organization’s credibility can be improved with the help of the logo bar. This is a carousel of publications such as magazines, newspapers, or television broadcasts that have mentioned your offer.
- Invalidate Your Competitors
You will remove your rivals in this section. Here, you can talk about the errors people frequently make when attempting to fix their issues or demonstrate how the current solution doesn’t adequately address the needs of your target audience.
- Social Proof
The purpose of the social proof section is to increase your credibility. There are three ways you can include this element on your landing page:
✔ Screenshots of reviews from Google, Facebook, or other platforms
✔ Text testimonials which include the name of your client, their company or title, and their picture
✔ Video testimonials
- Product Introduction
Here is where your product or service is introduced. Here, you can address other concerns and emphasize positives, but keep it succinct and easy to scan.
- Procedure
Make this section as concise and straightforward as possible, similar to how you introduce your product. The actions your audience will take to use your offer should be specified in the procedure section. Break it down between 2 and 5 steps.
- The Package
The package section is where you showcase your offer once again. This time, you can enumerate what’s inside your request – including the bonuses and discounts (if you have any) PLUS the price.
- Guarantee
I’ve already mentioned this last time when I wrote about the four elements of a converting checkout page. A guarantee is a promise you make to your audience if your offer does not fulfill its purpose. I also discussed how you could create your contract in three ways which are:
✔ Money-back Guarantee
✔ Return Guarantee
✔ Replacement Guarantee
- Value Section
The value section is another element to showcase the importance of your offer to its prospects. You will build your worth here and justify the price you mentioned in the “package” section. Then, you can break it down using fascinating and benefit-driven bullets.
- Additional CTAs
Below the element that displays the value of your product or service is the additional call-to-action (CTA) button. You can flash your package here again, plus the payment logos below your CTA button indicating a secured transaction to put your readers at ease.
- About Section
This is the part where you will tell your audience something about the creator or the brand behind your offer. Make it clear and concise, just like the other parts of your landing page. The about section is a good way of telling your target market that they are transacting or talking to another person and not to an emotionless web page.
- FAQs
Frequently asked questions will be your best friend in addressing your reader’s objections. So create a series of concerns, compile them, and manage them in a fun and more interactive way.
Conclusion
A landing page, without a doubt, can make or break your business. So, utilize these elements and see your leads converting to paying customers.
Always emphasize the result your offer can provide and how it can solve the pain your target customers are experiencing.
