Before starting to optimize
leads for improving website’s
conversion rates; it’s very important to know - which are those most
essential elements that convert a casual website visitor into a valuable
potential lead and what is the overall lead generation process?
When it’s about generating leads, below elements of a
website plays a very important role:
- Website Design
- Call to Action (CTA)
- Landing Page
- Thank you Page
When a visitor visits a website and finds it informative and easy to navigate, he / she gets encouraged and keeps on browsing and exploring more and more information on the website. Once the visitor is done with the research part and finds something interesting, he/she clicks on Call to Action located on the web page. CTA drives the visitor onto a landing page where the visitor fills up all his/her details for the product/service delivery. After this entire process, visitor is then taken to the ‘thank you’ page which is the final destination of the entire lead generation process.
This was the basic of lead generation. Now, let’s dig in to know-how to improve conversion rates with lead generation optimization.
1. Analyze your
present status of generating leads
Before you begin, analyze your current state of lead
generation to understand in which areas you need to work more for lead generation optimization. For this,
evaluate your landing page visits, CTA clicks and ‘thank you’ page shares to
understand which of these performing the best and which needs more improvement
for generating good leads and conversion
rate optimization.
2. Work on each
element of lead generation process
- If your visitor does not spend much time on your site or
if they move out from your site from the first page itself, re-consider the
overall designing of the website. Make sure every web page of yours, leads
your visitor to another one in a logical and convincing way.
- Use bright colors and simple design for call to action.
Ensure the button is situated at the most appropriate place and stands out from
the entire web page.
- Add social proofs of your past success and achievements
on the landing pages. An image of happy customers and satisfactory feedbacks
adds credibility in customer’s mind for your business.
- Along with saying ‘thank you’, add a social sharing
button or a form for another related offer they might choose to avail.
3. Do A/B testing
Create two different versions of the same website page
and test which out of these two do wonders for your conversion rates. This is the
best way to generate more potential leads with your existing traffic.
4. Foster your
leads
No potential lead is going to magically turn into your customer. You need to work on that lead.
Follow up the lead with emails consisting of some good
and informative content. Learn about the lead as much as you can and customize
your sales pitch or sales strategy accordingly.
