Where to Find Landing Page Designs for your Marketing and Promotional Campaigns

Landing pages can be a great addition to your website if your goal is to increase conversions and, ultimately, your profit margin; these pages are designed to solicit a specific action whether it’s to sign up for an email newsletter or purchase a product/service on the spot.

Originally, landing pages would need to be crafted by those that have a firm understanding of best practices and design experience but that barrier has been broken thanks to the introduction of templates, themes, and landing page services.

The following will give you a deeper understanding of why you need to begin using landing pages in your website development, where to source these designs, templates, and tools, and a few additional resources to gain a greater understanding of their usage.

Why Use Landing Pages?

Landing pages are a blessing when you want to increase your conversion rates and engagement.

These pages are effective because they act as a highly-targeted funnel for your visitors. People coming to your landing pages are delivered a very specific message which usually results in some form of action.

To place this idea into perspective:

Consider what happens when you visit a new website. You spend a considerable amount of time scanning the navigation, recent posts, popular posts on the sidebar, browsing the about section, and other basic pages; you may also read a few articles to gain an understanding of what the site is about.

A landing page, on the other hand, removes all these distractions and usually places a short description (or video/audio) of what the page is about, what’s next after a visitor takes action, and a call-to-action.

Common examples of landing pages may be those created to increase opt-in for email newsletters.

The correlation between the message used to drive visitors to the page and message displayed on the page needs to go hand-in-hand to ensure all barriers of confusion are removed from the visitor.

So, here is the take-away:

  • Landing pages increases opt-in chances because of its highly-targeted message
  • Landing pages remove distractions (such as sidebars, comments, social shares, and others)
  • Landing pages qualify traffic before sending them to offers
  • Landing pages can be used to track very specific campaigns
