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.

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!!

Facebook Connect login preventing traffic source conversion data. Any solutions?
We're buying traffic to the website via Adwords, and when they hit the website and go to sign up for an application (enter into our conversion funnel), the session concludes as a bounced session, a new session starts and that session now has a referral from Facebook rather than the original referring source. This means we can't monitor adwords conversions properly (or any other traffic source conversions) this seems to be quite a common problem with Facebook/Google account logins, in the case of Google, people block account.google.com but we can't afford to block Facebook outright as we're wanting to see other Facebook referrals. Has anyone come across this problem? Any suggestions of how to fix this?

Adwords Remarketing Advice - Low Traffic Pages
Moz, I am just looking for a little advice if anyone has any experience with Google Adwords and remarketing in particular, I am currently looking through the Adwords help pages to gain a better understanding of how Adwords remarketing works, from what i gather this can be a really useful resource to use in certain industries and i have a lot of ideas and scenarios where i think this could work really well, I am just trying to get a good understanding of the how remarketing lists are built up, Using Rule based targeting for visitors that have visited a specific page that gains roughly 1200 unique visits every 60 days, so i have set the membership duration to 60 days, So if i use the visit of this page as a rule for my list, then in a little less than 60 days time then my custom ads should start appearing to these previous visitors ? My Question Am a right in thinking the remarketing list is like a funnel, once 1000 visitors are added to this list/funnel then my ads will start showing, but then as those visitors in the funnel have reached the 61st Day they will be removed, and replaced with the new visitors being added to the list for that day ? Aslong as my list remains above 1000 visitors it will continue to show, but if i were to drop below 1000 visits within that 60 days my ads would not be visible ? so i would need to potentially extend the membership period if this happens ? Apologies as i really struggled to explain this question as best as i can 🙂 Hope someone can drop me a quick comment and straighten this out to ensure that i am on the right track and i am understanding this correctly 🙂 Thanks a lot James

Conversion optimization with Optimizely, impact on SEO
I am looking into signing up with www.optimizely.com for conversion testing. They put scripting on my site which will then redirect half of my site visitors to an alternate home page. The site I want to test on is ranking quite well with Google and I do not want to hurt my rankings. And with this set up,what Google will think is my home page is not and so I am essentially sending visitors to a different page than Google reads as my home page in source code. So, my concern is whether this will have a negative impact on my SEO rankings to redirect 50% of site visitors to a different page using this testing tool? I would use Google Web Site Optimizer, but many of my sites are in Wordpress and it seems that Wordpress and web site optimizer are not so compatible. Advice would be appreciated. Thank you, Robert

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
