7 Sins of Landing Page Design by Tim Ash



As presented by Tim Ash of SiteTuners at Affiliate Conference Denver, CO June 2009. We won Tim’s book “Landing Page Optimization” in a drawing!

#1 –  Call to Action not clear

Visitor does not know what they’re supposed to do. How to order, what number to call, how to contact?

#2 – Distracting Visuals

Too many images and graphics not related to service or product. Visitor is blasted with too many things, poor separation of content and navigation.

# 3 – Text Overload

Too much detail, poor flow, poor outline. People aren’t going to read a book.

#4 – Landing Page Does Not Match What the Ad Says

Your landing page does not deliver what the visitor is expecting from the ad, banner or other link they clicked on.

#5 – Form and Info Request Overload

Asking for too much irrelevant information, or information that isn’t needed till later.

#6 – Trust and Risk Minimizers

Trust symbols such as BBB, Hacker Safe, Verisign Secure Site are not prominently displayed early in the decision process.

#7 – Trust Verification Missing

Missing third party endorsements, client testimonials, list of current clients and customers, reviews and feedback.

Better landing page design will result in:
Increased conversion rates
Increased revenues
