Landing Page Audit

Systematic conversion rate optimization analysis with prioritized recommendations.

Process

1. Capture the page - URL or screenshot (note if only partial view)
2. Evaluate above-the-fold - First impression, clarity, CTA visibility
3. Assess messaging - Headline frameworks, copy quality, benefit focus
4. Check trust signals - Social proof, credibility markers
5. Identify conversion killers - Friction points, distractions
6. Prioritize by impact - High impact fixes first

Headline Framework Evaluation

Test headlines against these proven frameworks:

| Framework | Structure | Example | |-----------|-----------|---------| | 4U's | Urgent + Unique + Useful + Ultra-specific | "Double Your Sales in 30 Days" | | AIDA | Attention → Interest → Desire → Action | Pattern through page sections | | PAS | Problem → Agitate → Solution | Lead with pain, twist knife, offer relief | | BAB | Before → After → Bridge | Show transformation |

Above-the-Fold Checklist

• [ ] Compelling headline with clear value proposition
• [ ] Supporting subheadline explaining "how"
• [ ] Hero image/video representing outcome (not just product)
• [ ] Primary CTA button (contrasting color, above fold)
• [ ] Trust signal (logo bar, rating, or testimonial)
• [ ] Minimal navigation (remove distracting links)

CTA Placement Best Practices

| Location | Purpose | |----------|---------| | Hero section | Primary conversion, most visible | | After value proposition | Reinforce after communicating value | | After social proof | Convert after building trust | | After features/benefits | Capture after educating | | Sticky header/footer | Persistent access on long pages |

Top 10 Conversion Killers

| Killer | Impact | Fix | |--------|--------|-----| | Slow page load (>3s) | 7% drop per second | Optimize images, CDN | | Ad/landing mismatch | Trust destroyed | Match headlines | | Unclear value prop | Confusion = bounce | Clarify headline | | Competing CTAs | Decision paralysis | One primary CTA | | Too many form fields | Friction | Reduce to essentials | | No trust signals | Skepticism | Add proof | | Poor mobile experience | 50%+ traffic lost | Responsive design | | CTA below fold | Invisible | Move up | | Visual clutter | Overwhelm | Simplify | | Weak CTA copy | No motivation | Action verbs + value |
