Building Landing Page -- Questions

futurepocket · 09-25-2011, 05:03 PM

After finding out most of the major PPC networks don't allow direct linking, it seems I'm going to have to start building my own landing pages (it seems as if the market has become much harder for a newbie to get started lol). Anyways, few questions:

1) Do you put multiple offers on one page or one offer on one page?
(e.g., for a money making landing page, would you put all the ways to make money or just one?)

2) Do you take content from the CPA offers landing pages? (do you basically just take some of the content from the affiliate offer and spice it up, make it look better, add extra stuff?)

3) How do you link to the affiliate offer? (do you iFrame the submit form into the page itself? Or do you redirect upon clicking a button to the CPA offer? Or something else? Which one is better?)

4) In regards to building landing pages in sub-directories of the main domain, do you only put offers relevant to the main website in the sub-directories? Do you buy separate domains for each offer/offers/niche? What about using Web 2.0 properties and having blog posts as landing pages?

5) And finally, if you build a successful landing page, is it a good idea to promote it through SEO methods as well so you can get some organic traffic as well?

It would be great if someone could answer all these questions, thanks!

1 - it varies, I'll do both.. where possible I do like to do more than 1 offer where it fits, you can convert the some visitor more than once at times..

2 - Depends on the page, I might take the layout/colors/look, sometimes some of the content, it really depends

3 - .htaccess or php redirect.. always hide the affiliate links

4 - I like to keep 1 landing page per domain, I have done a few on a domain, it works, but is less trust worthy.. it really depends on what you would like to accomplish and how..

5 - I'd go the other way around, I'd recommend doing SEO first, then going to PPC (if your goal is to do both)..

Really the big thing to remember is you need to test several different things and track what works best..

Thanks for the quick response, just a few other questions:

4) In regards to building landing pages in sub-directories of the main domain, do you only put offers relevant to the main website in the sub-directories?

6) What about using Web 2.0 properties and having blog posts as landing pages?

7) Do you put landing pages on websites (or blogs) that already have a lot of relevant content and then the landing pages as sub-directories? Or does that not matter at all?

and could you please clarify #3 a little bit for me? PHP Redirect a "Submit" button or something?

1) one offer per page, basically the point of my landers is to "pre-sell" the visitor, however there's plenty of room to be creative

2) yes, i try to make it look similar to the CPA offer

3) lp (user clicks on your cta) -> cpa offer, i don't do iframing. Using prosper202 to cloak links

4) I have a couple of general domains and just use sub directories
