Is your landing page getting the results you need?

Is your landing page getting the results you need?

Across all industries, the average landing page converts at 6.6%, but that number changes a lot depending on the industry. Why is that?

Key takeaways

  • Email traffic has a high conversion rate of 19.3%
  • Paid social media averages 12%
  • But display ads are much lower at 4.1%

What is a good conversion rate?

It depends on what your landing page is trying to do. Some industries, like e-commerce, are focused on making direct sales, which can be harder.

Others, like education, aim to collect email addresses, which is easier to convert.

But it’s not just about your industry - where your traffic comes from makes a big difference, too.

Key insights

🐝 Email traffic has a high conversion rate of 19.3%.

🐝 Paid social media averages 12%.

🐝 But display ads are much lower at 4.1%.

‍

So, if your landing page isn’t converting like you want, don’t worry.

‍

Start by asking yourself:

🐝 Are you driving traffic from the right places?

🐝 Is your copy simple enough? (Writing at a 10-11 year old level doubles ⏫ conversion rates!)

🐝 Are you setting the right expectations for your audience? (What you want them to do)

‍

Small tweaks can make a big difference.
