The document outlines a 7-step process for testing landing pages to optimize conversion rates. The steps include: 1) analyzing the original page using a LIFT framework to identify problems, 2) creating hypotheses to solve the problems, 3) mapping the experiment, 4) designing graphic and copy variations, 5) installing technical components, 6) launching the experiment, and 7) analyzing results and planning next steps. It provides an example case study where a PPC landing page was optimized, resulting in a 15% lift in lead generation. Testing tips recommend using a controlled testing tool with statistical significance.
10. Lead Generation Landing Page Testing Process Example Case Study
11. LIFT Analysis Problem: PPC traffic cost rising, ROI in peril Test Page: High traffic Pay-per-click landing page Audience: B2B searchers for “Merchant Account” Goal: Form fill and phone call lead generation
13. LIFT Framework Landing page Influence Function for Tests (For more info, Google: “Chris Goward LIFT”) Relevance Clarity Anxiety Distraction Urgency
14. LIFT Analysis Urgency: No anticipation of form response speed Clarity: Headlines do not include Value Proposition Distraction: Headlines & subheads compete visually Clarity: Long two-column form creates confusion Clarity: Call-to-action button below the fold Clarity: Low contrast text reduces readability Distraction: Right-to-left eyeflow is counter-intuitive Clarity: Button copy does not reinforce headline action
