Ensure there is a bond between the pre-click experience and the
corresponding post-click landing experience. A seamless journey
that considers visitor intent and continues the theme of the
messaging used in the earlier stages of the funnel. Ref: The 7

Think about your attention ratio and minimise the ratio of choices
on your landing page vs the conversion goals. Remove any
superfluous content (or move it down the page) and make sure you
have a primary call to action (CTA) that is prominent and stands
out. Ref: Unbounce.com 2015. ORIGINAL +200%

Something remarkable is worth talking about. Worth noticing. Its a
Purple Cow. Boring stuff is invisible. Seth Godin. Make sure you
shout loud and clear about your competitive advantage and why you
should be the chosen provider from your competitor set. Ref: Purple
Cow: Transform your business by being remarkable (2009). Seth
Godin.

PERSUASION Theres nothing better than getting a good review, and
customers like to see them too when searching for products and
services online. People dont like being the guinea pig. They need
to be shown that others have had a positive customer experience.
Social growth is fuelling this expectation. Ref: Google AdWords
Product Team. Click Through Rate +10 to 20%

PERSUASION When access to something is restricted, the perceived
value for it increases. We crave what we cant have We dont like to
trick visitors; but we also dont want to make it easy for them to
procrastinate. We want to give them a reason to act now rather than
later. Ref: Crazy Egg Blog (September 2014) +5%
