Conversions From Proper Optimization

By Carrie Serienz


A specially designed experience on a website that has the intention of converting a visitor into a paying customer is what is known in internet marketing as conversion rate optimization (CRO). Many people simply call it CRO, for short. Conversion rate optimization isn't only important for e-commerce and transactional sites. Each business with a website should be taking advantage of these conversion routes that will make the company more successful.

Most companies are working with a limited marketing budget, so getting the most return on every dollar they spend becomes a top priority. It's worth it to go beyond the basic page advertisements when you have returning visitors to the page who are more solid leads, retargeting campaign have a significantly higher ROI than the generic ads for first time visitors.

Carefully considering the exact page that an ad leads a potential customer is important, as the conversion rate will be higher if directed correctly, making costs per action lower and campaign ROI will be increased. And that's where website conversion optimization comes in - making sure that every visitor that lands on your site has the highest possible chance of turning into a paying customer.

You should have a call to action that will be easily seen by a page visitor, and will show customers how to take advantage of your services and products. The online method of marketing is not for the weak of heart.

If someone clicks a link to your site from an ad, they will not see the same calls to action as someone who happened to end up on the front page. Pages should be designed specifically for those who clicked an ad as part of your campaign and end up on your page. For a newer website, a basic page for all visits that come from non-direct sources will do, but in time, they should be tailored to suit these specialized leads.

Continuous testing brings you closer to finding the exact path to seamless usability for your web visitors. Visitors are much more likely to convert to buyers when their experience is simple and enjoyable. No matter how people find you they are all searching for the same thing. They are looking for a solution to a problem, and you are looking to resolve issues they may be having.

Optimization must be used where you can gain the maximum amount of effect. You must seek out the area that can make the greatest impact. A 100% increase might be possible on the last page of the ordering process however the increase in sales will be minor as a smaller percentage of overall site visitors see this page. It's far more effective to start with pages with lots of visitors - and a high bounce rate such as landing pages.

Keep your users interested, trusting in you, and consistently moving through your site in order to eventually make them convert. Trust is an essential element in the mind of a customer, so ensure that they feel this way in order to have a higher chance of converting them.
