Create landing page templates
Landing pages are focused and customised web pages, specifically designed to get your visitor to take an action.
As an extension of BMMI Shops advertising (social, pay per click, banners, etc), they have the ability to increase conversion rates significantly compared to the effectiveness of a campaign that doesn’t use them.
Rather than directing users who click on an ad to a generic page on a website, online advertising that uses landing pages typically sees a conversion rate improvement of at least 25%. Effective testing can double this number.
Conversions can include signing up for an account, signing up to receive promotional emails, making a purchase or any other cll to action.
BMMI Shops should create three landing page templates that can be installed and quickly updated with relevant text and imagery to match and support tactical marketing campaigns.
