Your website’s Landing page
A landing page is defined as the initial page that a prospective client visiting your online page, website or blog sees. This page has to be designed with the aim of directing the prospective client to take a particular action so that you can achieve certain goals. Normally, such goals include; increase conversion rates, generate high subscription rates, direct more customers to your products, push more leads down your sales funnel to become paying clients, among others.
To achieve your goals, your landing page requires to adhere to some best practices so that it can effectively communicate its message to the clients and convert them towards your goals. Those best practices include;
Your landing page should load fast.

This leads to a high bounce rate. Landing pages with few or no images have been seen to increase leads by more than 11%.

Another important aspect of a landing page which i have written about before is A Strong Call To Action which has to be focused and straight forward.
