      Thank you. That was a very good advice. Well, my question is about 1 and 15. should I create only one sign up button and try a different calls to action? For example in the footer or something like that.

        Call to actions can be present in the headline text as well as the button text (example: "submit" vs. "download your free marketing guide"). There should be no question as to what next steps are necessary - tell your visitors exactly what you want them to do in big, bold text. For Kajabi, changing their button text from "See Plans and Pricing" to "Get Started Today" increased conversions by 252%!

    10 Best Ways to Optimize Your PPC Landing Pages

    A professional-looking website that packs a lot of relevant and interesting content is statistically more likely to increase conversion rates and sales than "ordinary" websites. Because as with other mass media channels, websites must be credible to the eyes of users to earn their trust and loyalty.

    Well-designed landing pages, in particular, have the potential for increased conversion not only through SEO but also in PPC campaigns. PPC landing pages that are optimized improves Quality Score and bring ad positioning benefits.

    Lead generation through optimized PPC landing pages is very much possible with these 10 clever and common-sense tips:

    1. Quick-loading pages

    Slow-loading pages affect your website's image negatively, ensuring non-return of visitors. Avoid using too many graphic images or animation in your PPC landing pages. Google's AdWords Quality Score is also influenced by the speed of page loading.

    2. Tons of images are so uncool!

    Keep images on your landing pages to a minimum of two. More than that causes the page to load slowly, and does not convey a high degree of professionalism. A couple of images of your team in action, for instance, will convey the needed degree of professionalism to inspire confidence.

    3. Ease of Navigation

    The pages must not overwhelm the user with unnecessary links. Remove excess navigation links or buttons in your landing page. Your company logo and a simple link to the homepage will suffice.

    4. Attention-grabbing Action Buttons

    Make calls to action on your pages be as prominently as possible. A little bit of guidance on what to do while in your website is very helpful to users. Large buttons or a stand-out links in your pages are more likely to be clicked by users.

    5. Display information on the fold

    Internet users who are in a hurry in their search for information will not wait for the entire landing page to unfold in front of their eyes. Be sure to place calls to action buttons and relevant teasers and information above the page fold before the users can hurry away.

    6. Embed PPC keywords in landing pages

    Keyword embedding may be effective for SEO and it is also very relevant to PPC campaigns, to improve Quality Scores and improve your ad performance.

    7. Clutter-Free PPC landing pages

    Keep PPC landing pages clutter free by removing any unnecessary content, images, or links. They are the first glimpse to your business, make a good impression with an uncluttered page.

    8. Readable copy

    Break up the content of your pages into short paragraphs that are easy on the eyes and mind to comprehend. They should tell visitors what your site is all about, in a clear and concise manner.

    9. Search-targeted Headlines

    Pages that intelligently display interesting headlines depending on what the user typed in his or her search is good for sales conversion. Users who searched for a keyword will be more likely to continue browsing your PPC landing pages that brought them directly to related topics based on the keyword they searched.

    10. Hassle-free Contact Forms

    Pages with contact forms that take a long time to fill up can drive potential leads away. A rule of thumb is that the 'submit' button of the form should be visible in the fold of your page, otherwise users may just simply give up and leave.

    You can leverage your pages to generate traffic through SEO, but landing pages are also strategically powerful tools for your PPC campaign, if optimized correctly.

    Since you have only one page to convince the user, the flow should start with awareness, i.e. your products, services, or solutions, gradually moving towards convincing data like testimonials, clients, etc. and then your lead magnet (form/subscription). Remember to keep your message clear and be ready for the A/B testing.

    The following link is an example of a landing page that has been A/B split tested over and over again: https://learn.onthegridnow.com/free-online-workshop/.

    Apparently, the lady that made it has managed to increased her conversion rate tremendously by using that very page.

    Perhaps you could extract some important elements out of it and draw your own conclusions.

    Hope this helps!

    Your Headline Should be catchy. Since you have only one page to convince the user, you must provide awareness for your topic. You can provide some testimonial and to get subscriptions you should you subscription form. Contain yourself with good amount of information and do not provide any information that confuses the user.

    Yes, done a few of those, and l would suggest...

    Use the word "free" as often as you can.
    And then put a large arrow graphic in the video when it ends, pointing at the signup form.

    And have the arrow stay for a least a minute or more.

    Obviously don't put "free" up 100 times, but up to 5 times, should be ok.

      I wonder If 6 times is really too much?

        I just checked my old landing page, and had 5 "free" words about, l would say that 6 is getting into spam territory.
