Hey guys, so I'm approaching this in a new way. I've decided to promote just one product and give away a bonus if they purchase through my website. I just need help with the landing page: http://shahtraining.com/ Thank you in advance for all suggestions.
1. Page took forever to load. Optimize your graphics. 2. Move the text up so that it is beside your graphics and not below it. 3. Get rid of the Search bar on top and the big orange thing in the right column. Neither one gives you or your customer any value at all. 4. There is a ton of blank space in the right column after the creative common thing. Not sure what the creative common thing is but get rid of that too. That blank space doesn't do anything for the looks of the page either. I would not use a wordpress theme for that page unless you can get rid of all that unneccessary white space. If you are using ppc, and your ad has already targeted the people in the "buying mode", you will be ok with the wording in the top fold. If you are going article marketing route, I would probably not put the hard sell right on top where it is the first thing you see. If I am in the "info mode or undecided mode" and read the "When you Purchase" line, I would click off your site. Hope this helps..Good luck!
Thanks man. The page just converted today. Lets see what happens tomorrow. 1 - What do you mean by optimizing my graphics? I never seem to have a problem with page loading. What can I do to improve speed? 2 - The text, for some reason, with the theme does not align next to the image. Well, it does, but I don't like the way it looks. 3 - I tested both - keeping both the navigation and the sidebar - as opposed to getting rid of all navigation, and keeping navigation, search, sidebar worked - I mean I got one sale, so it's still to early to tell. But just sharing. 4 - I see what you mean, I can try to center the text and get rid of the sidebar but keep the top menubar. Thanks for your tips! Once again, the page did convert today. Yesterday I was using a traditional template without the blog theme. Here the changes I made RIGHT BEFORE the Page converted: - Added top navigation - Added Blog Them - Added sidebar - Included more information about products (actually, there were videos of the products developed by the vendor. Same videos on the individual product sites. But I found them redundant so I created my own explanation of products. I guess this serves as more of a testimonial to the product. Maybe thats why the page worked) - Included more information about bonuses (I actually didn't even talk about the bonuses before. Big mistake. Added a few sentences) We'll see how it goes down tomorrow. If the sales slow down I'll start testing out some of your ideas zeekstern. Thanks again! BTW - I'm not doing PPC, or even heavy article marketing. It's all SEO - my front page got 200 hits so far today (probably get 30 - 50 more by midnight). So, it's all hardcore SEO. (But not hardcore enough)
I just deactivated 14 plugins I wasn't using. So it might be faster. Please try again and let me know. Once again, the speed on my computer is just fine.
Yes the text needs to be aligned to the ebook images like it is on the vendors website. It loaded fine for me. I just didn't like the look of the text aligned to the ebooks. I have had this problem and the only way I could fix it was to create a table with 2 cells. SO I would have the ebook on the left and the text on the right. I still can't figure out how to make it wrap around the image. Maybe there is a create tables plugin or something for that. Mike
