People Will Click for that First Bite!!!
While the term "Landing Page" gets thrown around a lot in online Marketing, not all that many people really understand what it means - much less how it differs from a website or homepage, or even why Landing Pages are necessary.
Many website owners have no idea what a Landing Page is, so if you’re not familiar with the term, don’t feel alone. At the very least - everyone needs a custom Landing Page for list Sign-ups, Social media posts and product/service campaigns.
What’s a Landing Page and Why Do You Need Them?
A Landing Page is a single webpage created for one specific purpose as part of an online Marketing campaign. It’s where users "land" after they click on a link in a Social media post, a Buy now button/link, a sign-up Email button/link, an Ad, etc, etc.
A Landing Page is only accessed through a direct link, is often temporary, and can be changed or updated frequently. A Landing Page has only one goal: to convert.
In online Marketing, a "conversion" is often a:
- Donation to a nonprofit campaign
- Sign-Up for your newsletter
- Purchase of a Product
- Service Scheduled
- Registration for an Event
- Trial Membership
Reasons to Create a Landing Page include:
- Showcase a product or service
- One-time-only offers (think of BOGO ads on Facebook)
- Sharing videos or infographics
- Surveys
- Saying thank you and/or supplying a coupon or coupon code
- For a special sale (think holidays or clearance)
- Downloadable materials
