Train your landing page templates to convert better with these helpful hints
Conversions help the world go round for online publishers.
Whether these conversions are casual visitors to registered members, or the conversion entails a direct sale, the process is the lifeblood for online publications.
Why is this the case? Well, it’s pretty obvious that sales bring in revenue… but it should not be overlooked that the conversion from casual visitor to registered member could become a fruitful relationship for both sides.
Converting a casual visitor by exchanging a free product for the visitor’s valid email address will yield an opportunity to communicate with the person through editorials, promos and week in review articles.
And don’t be fooled – email is still the most popular method for sharing content. It’s personal, fairly secure and has been around for years, which has helped build its credibility as a platform for sharing.
If you are looking for more conversions, you have to consider the way in which you landing page templates are designed. Beyond being SEO’d with your relevant keyword terms, how personal and engaging are they? Consider these three tips while designing, or upgrading, your landing page templates.
