Building a Custom Landing Page

You know how important it is to have custom landing pages for your pay-per-click campaigns, email campaigns, and any other marketing efforts that drive potential customers to your Web site.  But if the thought of creating a custom page scares you, don’t worry. The trick isn’t to write it from scratch, but to recycle the content you already have. Here’s how:

First, determine the messaging for your marketing piece and landing page. For this example, let’s say we’re sending an email to your current customers telling them about a week-long sale on Traffic Blazer®. (You would set the sale in the Reseller Control Center on the Product Pricing page.) 

For the content of the email, we’re going to include the following elements:

  • Introduction appealing to customer’s desire to draw more visitors to their site, thereby increasing sales
  • Product description cut and pasted from the Traffic Blazer page in your turnkey storefront
  • Sale price of $19.99/yr (min. retail) versus the regular price of $24.99
  • Sale Dates – “You must hurry, because this offer expires on [DATE].”
  • Call-to-action – “Act now to increase your site traffic and SAVE 20%.”

For the landing page we’ll incorporate the elements from the email, plus add more details to show the user how this product will benefit them:

  • Insert the plan features from the product page with a "Buy Now" link
  • Call out sale price and dates of sale (make this easy to change out with standard price after the sale is over)
  • Emphasize how easy it is to get started, pull the ‘4 Steps to Success’ from the overview tab on the product page with a "Buy Now" link.
  • Call-to-action – “Act now and SAVE 20% on Traffic Blazer, the surefire way to increase visitors to your site.”

Now that you know where to find all the elements, the writing doesn’t seem so bad, does it?  Here’s some sample copy – remember you would want to make the tone of both the landing page and the email match the tone you’ve chosen for the rest of your site.
