I want your opinion?

[Syedr1]

I have two types of landing pages for our site. I want your opinion as a general user "which one would you prefer?" (basically, where would you feel comfortable to leave your details) and why?

#1 As it is more descriptive. However keep in mind what Google doesn't want according to Matt Cutts, he says keep it short and sweet:

“If you have got a three, four or five words in your URL, that can be perfectly normal. As it gets a little longer, then it starts to look a little worse. Now, our algorithms typically will just weight those words less and just not give you as much credit.

“The thing to be aware of is, ask yourself: ‘How does this look to a regular user?’ – because if, at any time, somebody comes to your page or, maybe, a competitor does a search and finds 15 words all strung together like variants of the same word, then that does look like spam, and they often will send a spam report. Then somebody will go” and check that out.

I like the first one.  That being said I would recommend that you use an AB/multivariate testing tool like Optimizely to measure and test which landing page is better for conversions.

Hi Tuzzell,

Yes my bad I did type the wrong number, I've fixed that now. Its what I get for opening them in tabs!

Number 1!

Thanks

I'm with number 1 also.  The less information required, the better

Same reason as Chris although i think he put the wrong number down from your list I also like the need help telephone number as to me signals you’re a legitimate company with contact details and acts a clear trust signal as well as user resource. Although I prefer the URL structure of 2 but that’s only from a personal preference of not liking the question format. You actually have more Keyword targeting in the one you’re using.

Title wise – I think 5 things you need to know rather than everything you need to know works better. People like short concise lists, more chance I’m going to read it.

I would say 1.

Personally I would be less likely to give information like my full name and phone number than just my email address.

Because people want to leave less information and parting with an email is easier than more information.
