Landing Pages for PPC Campaigns


With a PPC marketing campaign, content or Web design changes are not necessary, although
in order to create really effective Pay Per Click advertising, you might want to
make some changes. In fact,
a Web site is not even really needed. A Web page that answers
the searchers query
and
points them in the right direction for more information is all that is really
required.
Compelling content that gives visitors what they are
looking for and converts them into buyers or leads is what you really need.

Your Pay Per Click Marketing Campaign landing pages should load fast. This means you shouldn’t clutter
them with heavy images and unnecessary information. Don’t
let your visitors wait too long because they are likely to get frustrated and
go somewhere else. And all this after you paid for them to visit your site.

Create Compelling Content

For the most part,
visitors tend to scan websites, looking for the information or offer
they saw in your PPC ad. It’s best to leave out extraneous content that does
not fit into your ad’s objectives. A cluttered website
can be confusing so it’s important to organize relevant information
in a clear and concise format. Use a clear and compelling call to action to lead
your visitor to your offer.

Use Easy to Follow Navigation

Make it easy for your visitors to find what they are looking for. They are
there to accomplish a task, be entertained, learn something or take advantage
of an offer. Make it easy for them to do what they and you want them to do.
A user-friendly website is an efficient website that maximizes productivity
and minimizes frustrations. It values the
visitor providing them with a positive & rewarding experience.

Follow Some Simple Usability Rules

Consider what your visitors experience might be after they click
on your pay per click advertisement. For example, if your target market is baby
boomers
or senior citizens, they most likely will have difficulty reading smaller text,
so create landing pages with larger, easy to read fonts. If
your demographics are mostly women, use language that appeals to women. Be sure
your page loads quickly and there is a compelling and prominent call to action.

Track Conversions from Pay Per Click

If your Web site is not a product driven e-commerce Web site, you might also consider
using a short form for your visitors to fill out requesting more information
or to obtain a free product or sample. You can then use this form to track
conversions at least at the PPC marketing level. If it is product driven, and they
can purchase directly from your Web site, be sure to put some form of metrics
in place for tracking conversions.
