Most people have no idea how to write a landing page that converts. Instead, they slop together elements that they have seen used in other landing pages - but usually do not put them together in the same way the owner of the successful landing page did.
One leading problem is copywriting. And that's ok. Not everybody is going to be a first-class writer - never mind a copywriter. But as a person selling a product or seeking to construct a list, it is crucial that you know your strong points and weaknesses - and that you either spend the time to overcome them or employ someone else to do it for you.
With copywriting, for instance, it is important to use a mix of compelling sales points with powerful psychological triggers. Most people who create a sales page miss either one or both of those elements.
For instance, they might concentrate so much on building hype that they don't actually explain what solution they are providing - and for whom they are providing it. If I don't have a specific problem that your product solves, why would I buy it? I wouldn't.
If in your copy you fail to include psychological triggers using such words as "scientific", "proven", "guaranteed", "shocking" and others like them, no one will feel compelled to keep reading. This is because the benefits will be views as being low or average value.
In addition to these two problems, some sales pages lack coherency and direction. The copy looks amateurish and it doesn't slowly grind forward, breaking down the visitor's resistance to the sale - and compelling him or her to buy more and more at each sales point.
Additionally, if there aren't multiple calls to action - another form of psychological trigger - then a potential visitor might never feel compelled enough to pull out his or her credit card on the spot and make the purchase.
Always remain focused on your reason for writing. You need to convince your reader to act. Each sales trigger should leave your reader feeling a little more compelled to act.
