Your Landing Page’s First Impression Lasts Forever: Make it a Good One

First impressions, ie your landing page, are vital for inbound; it dictates if prospects stay or go. Ways to make sure yours is a good one:

You have written plenty of pieces on your site’s content, which is vital for collecting viewership, but the first things your viewer sees are the most important in capturing their attention. That’s part of why a Call to Action is essential, especially on your landing page, so viewers aren’t asking questions about their role in the buying process. And, especially with all the competition out there, the look a prospect gives your site will be cursory at best. An abundance of research shows how important a first impression is, and even if that first impression is later proved wrong, there’s no real coming back from it. So, what can you do on your website to make sure you nail your first impression? We have a few ideas that’ll help: 1) Find What Makes a Poor First Impression? For me, it’s initial load times. If a landing page takes too long to load, I’m impatient, hit the back button, and go to the next one on whatever Google returned. (And this is why Google considers your website load times!) Secondly, if I find the website doesn’t answer my question or service relatively quickly, I’m bound to move to another option. If there are too many irrelative pop-ups or the layout seems old-fashioned and difficult to navigate, well, if you’re not contemporary, you’re probably not worth buying from. 2) Try a Short Video I used to work in corporate and commercial media, writing and producing videos running from $2000 up to $50,000 in cost. You can do some fantastic things with 2D and 3D graphics to capture viewer attention and make a great first impression. This Psychology Today article helps break it down. Consumers are 39% more likely to share content if it’s delivered by video, 36% more likely to comment, and 56% more likely to “like” it. Moreover, a video is perfect on your landing page to inform your customers and increase your viewership. Watching a video is passive and does not take nearly as much effort as reading, and it just requires less processing. Which in some areas may be wrong, but when trying to produce conversions, going the route where the brain processes information 60,000 times faster is the safer bet. 3) Being Too Vague and Impersonal When shopping online, consumers usually have a good idea of what they’re looking for. It’s not like walking through a mall and “window shopping”; they’ve deliberately searched for a specific item or service, and your first impression – again, usually on your landing page – tells whether they’ve found it. So, when they land on your site, they want to see what you have to offer and for how much. This is what’s called […]
