Landing Page Conversion
-
Hi,
I'm having a few issues with my landing page conversion. I have followed several guides found on this site (especially the unbounce.com ones) but what'ever I try my landing page CRO doesn't seem to increase.
the landing page in question is http://www.drivingtestnow.co.uk/find-driving-test-cancellations.
I'm getting traffic to my landing page solely through PPC traffic from Google. My stats are rough as follows:
Arrive at landing page - 100% (obviously)
Click through to buy now page - 15-20%
Actually complete the buy now process - 1%Conversion from organic traffic landing directly on the homepage at http://www.drivingtestnow.co.uk is having a conversion rate of about 5%. It seems odd to me that my highly targeted ad campaign and landing page are convertign so badly compared to the less atrgeted organic search traffic and homepage.
Have you got any ideas why this might be occurring and also any tips on how I can improve the conversion rate for my product?

This is certainyl the type of feedback I was after. Having revisited the homepage and landing pages it nwo seems obvious that the landing page doesn't give enough detail about the product.
I've been toying with the idea of removing the video for a while, as I'm not sure (in it's current state) it adds much value. Do you have any examples of videos that you consider to be "dyanmic enough to whip out your credit card"?
I will certainly test out some of the other elements you've pointed out.

PPC keyworsd are the same as the organic keywords. More than 95% of my total traffic comes from the keywords "driving test cancellations". this is split between PPC and organic in an 80/20 ratio.
-
I agree with others, on landing page my eyes fixed on this
"Find driving test cancellations fast" i did not understand what it ment,"how to get an earlier test" is more descriptive
but what i want to know is the keywords used in pcc, are they direct keywords or are they keywords they need conversion to your product
Why not send pcc to home page?
-
I would get straight to the point and move the license field right on the first landing page. You're creating additional step and giving people a chance to give up. Testing different page versions will be the only way to tell for sure.

Agree with Shailendra Sial - the home page is more convincing to me.
-
Home page clearly explains process (the landing page focuses on the benefits, but it wasn't clear to me exactly what this was or how it worked.).
-
Home page is simple and the graphic elements make everything stand out. To me, the landing page is a little crowded and sections seem to blend in with each other ...
- Trust signals more prominent on the home page. I didn't notice the "100% guarantee" at first on the lander ... or the form when you click through, because it's in the upper right and the white-on-light green at the bottom of the page. On the home page it's right in the middle of the page and the green header text and icon make it stand out more. At least, to me.
- The first CTA on the lander appears a little bit "lost" under the checkmarks. You're only asking for one piece of information, I'm thinking why even make them click through to a second page?
- Re the video: I run FF with Flashblock so it doesn't load and run immediately for me (another, albeit small, demographic to consider besides the proxied users). When I played it, it not only drew my eyes away from the benefits list and the CTA but the video itself didn't feel dynamic enough to capture my attention and make me want to whip out a credit card. Maybe the video should be an optional "See how it works" link?
No concrete answers, but a few things you can test - hope this helps!

banner.png gives a good idea about your website/service in general.

People (like me) accessing it behind a firewall can't see the YouTube video.

Testimonials are good but i feel they are not adding much value and eating up the precious real estate of the page. I would prefer something like this http://www.sap.com/sme/solutions/businessmanagement/businessone/index.epx

A form on the page can do the trick.
Treat it as a feedback from the user

Thanks. Are there any specific factors that you feel are missing from landing page. How could I increase user confidence? Was there anythign on the other pages of the site that made you feel more comfotable?
-
I believe that the content on your landing page is not very convincing. When i landed on this page i was not very sure about your service but when i went to the Home page and browsed through the pages, i was bit comfortable. I find your Home page better than the landing page in question.

Photos or Video Best for Landing Pages?
My real estate brokerage firm is promoting a listing via advertising on LinkedIn. The advertising links to a landing page: http://www.nyc-officespace-leader.com/MidtownLawOfficeSublet3300SFBelowMarket Rather than photos, the landing page has a 1 minute video. So far we have had about 10 visits to the page. Visitors leave the landing page after a few seconds. So they are not looking at the video. Would it be better to replace the video with photos? Or is engagement generally better with video? My thinking is that business owners may not have the patience or the time for a video and they would more likely have the time and willingness to click on photos. I would be willing to test this further, but at $5/click it could get costly! Any thoughts?

SEO and Conversions from a C-Level perspective
Hi guys! Do you have any suggestion about articles about how to work with conversions and SEO from a C-level perspective? I know it is very open question, but there might be articles like (https://moz.com/ugc/how-can-pr-seo-and-ceo-people-work-together-for-link-building) that are great and written on this subject. Could you please share if you have any examples? I'm thinking for these perspectives: What knowledge and insight does a management team need to take control and drive the SEO and CRO related work (from a executive level)? How do the management team connect business strategy and goals with the SEO and CRO area? Have a great day!

Conversion Rate Benchmarking and Optimization
Hey everyone! I run the marketing for an ecommerce marketplace and we're doing good on the SEO front of things, with 60%+ of our traffic coming in via search and we're ranking for some competitive keywords. I'm really curious about the conversion rate though. Despite intensive googling, I've not been able to find a rough benchmark for conversion rates. Our conversion rate is about 1.2%, increasing as we continue to do more optimization work with regards to the site's usability. While we track other forms of conversions, the 1.2% conversion rate is for bookings through the site, which is our main source of revenue. Does anyone have a reference guide for conversion rates, particularly for ecommerce marketplaces? I'd like to know if we're doing ok or really bad, and also to take reference from other similar sites to improve our conversion. Thanks!!

Any Reports on Conversion Rate Drops in 2014?
I'm looking for some reports about conversion rate changes over the past year as well as any trends you may have noticed about ecommerce conversion rates because we are seeing something quite odd. We are seeing a large drop in overall conversion rates on some sites I manage this year despite seeing significant revenue growth. When I looked through the stats I found something interesting. Our conversion rates have actually increased on each of the three device types (desktop, tablet and mobile) but because there is a huge surge in visits from mobile devices (the device with the lowest conversion rates) and a large decline in vistis from our top convertor (desktop) our overall conversion rates are down. This is especially troubling to me because my bonus was based on increasing conversion rates and I could use some help from you to see if others in the industry are facing this issue or not. Thanks

Tracking Adwords Conversions for eCommerce ROI
I'm working with a rather large eCommerce customer who needs to be able to track their Adwords conversions for the purpose of determining the ROI of their Adwords campaigns. I've installed code from Google Adwords Conversions on their eCommerce page, but it doesn't seem to be calculating values correctly. Also, where would setting goals in Analytics come in to play if I'm trying to track the conversions of specific Adwords conversions?

Google Analytics e-commerce tracking on multiple pages
Hi, I work in the airline industry and we are trying to implement Google analytics on our site. We are at the stage of getting e-commerce tracking setup. The problem we face is that we have multiple receipt pages (booking confirmation pages in our case) instead of just one as most carts would have. These are completely independent of each other. My question is can I use the same e-commerce tracking code on each page or do I need to setup multiple trackers. I reviewed the documentation here: https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/analyticsjs/ecommerce#multitracker however I'm unsure if multiple trackers are needed when using it on multiple pages or is this just for multiple trackers on the same booking confirmation page. any help on this would be greatly appreciated

Landing Page for High Ticket Items
Hi Everyone 🙂 We are an auto dealership and our website is designed to capture leads. I'm looking into designing some landing pages and I understand that we should test anything we try, but I don't really know where to start. Basically, we want to capture name, email, and phone # on our page. What sort of incentive should I offer people to provide us with their information? Typically, auto dealers offer up a "Free Quote" incentive. I'm wondering if anyone else has an idea for something else to try. Thanks!

Contact page lead optimization
Hi, I have a client whose contact page is the second most visited after the home page. However, there is a 93.65% abandonment rate on the contact page. This could be for a number of reasons: There is a phone number on the page, so people may call the firm There is a Google Map on the page, so people may get directions The top next pages are: Exiting the site (about 50%) Returning to the home page Going to the About the Company page Going to the Distributors page (the company is a manufacturer) What is the best way to analyze the performance of this page? Thanks, Josh
