Landing page CRO

Diagnose before rewriting

A page converts when a visitor understands what this is, believes it will work for them, and has no

unresolved objection at the moment they are asked to act. Failures are almost always one of those

three, and the remedy differs entirely.

Read the page as a stranger who has five seconds. Then answer:

• What is this, in the reader's words? If the hero requires domain knowledge to parse, nothing

below it matters.

• Who is it for? A page for everyone converts nobody. Specificity is a conversion tactic, not a

marketing luxury.

• Why this instead of the alternative — including doing nothing, which is the real competitor.
• What is the single action? Multiple competing calls to action reliably reduce all of them.

The hero

Most of the outcome, decided in the space of a phone screen.

• Headline states the outcome, not the category and not a slogan. "Close your books in two days,

not two weeks" beats "Modern accounting infrastructure."

• Subhead handles the obvious next question — usually how, or for whom.
• One primary call to action, above the fold, with a label describing what happens next rather

than "Submit" or "Get started."

• Proof in the first screen. A logo row, a number, a named customer. Claims made with no

evidence in sight are discounted wholesale.

• Show the product. A screenshot of the real thing outperforms an abstract illustration for

almost every software product.

Down the page

Order by the reader's questions, not by your feature list: what it does → why it is better than what

they do now → proof → objections → price → act.

Every claim needs evidence near it. Every section should be removable — if cutting it changes

nothing, cut it. Long pages are fine; padded pages are not.

Repeat the call to action at each natural decision point, always the same action.

Objections

List the real reasons people do not buy — cost, switching effort, trust, whether it works for their

case, who else uses it — and answer each on the page. Objections not handled on the page are handled

by leaving.

The strongest objection handling is specific: a migration guide, a named customer like them, a

concrete guarantee.

Prioritizing tests

Rank by traffic × expected effect × confidence, and test structural things before cosmetic ones.

Headline, offer framing, page order, and form length move conversion. Button color does not, and

testing it consumes the traffic a real test needed.

Most pages cannot support many adequately powered tests. Spend them on the hero and the offer.

Scoring a page

Where a score is useful, rate each of these one to five with the criteria stated: clarity of what it

is, specificity of who it is for, strength of the primary action, proof present and near claims,

objections handled, and visual hierarchy supporting the path.

Publish the criteria with the score. A page scored 6/10 with no rubric produces an argument; the

same score with the rubric produces a work list.

Return contract

Findings ordered by expected impact, each with the evidence, the specific fix, and effort. The one

change to make first. And what you would leave alone — a CRO audit that flags everything has

prioritized nothing.
