Landing Page Best Practices Part 1

In digital marketing, a landing page is a standalone web page, created specifically for a marketing or advertising campaign. It takes more than clever copy and visuals to compel conversion. It’s this focus that makes landing pages the best option for increasing the conversion rates of your marketing campaigns and lowering your cost of acquiring a lead or sale.

Landing Page Best Practices Part 1

1. Publish Relevant Content
People purchase products to fulfill their needs and make their lives easier. If landing page content doesn’t connect to customer desires, don’t include it.

2. Write Concise and Compelling Copy
Get to the point. Copy should be thought-provoking and informative but not long or overly cute.

3. Illustrate Results
Make value propositions apparent with imagery. Don’t just depict functionality. Show how prospects will feel once products solve their problems.

4. Enable Conversion
The path to conversion must be evident on every part of the page. No scrolling for buttons or searching for input fields.

5. Align with Referrals
Ensure that landing pages and referral sources, like banner ads and social posts, are visually and thematically consistent. Inbound bait-and-switch is bad for business.

6. Cut the Clutter
Exclude unnecessary elements to limit distractions. Some experts recommend removing the navigation, but this may frustrate prospects.

7. Make Value Apparent
Follow the five-second rule. Value propositions should be apparent on first pass.

Educational Websites

In a bid to represent Qatar Foundation schools online, A101 came in to assist. Previously some schools had no websites, and others needed a complete overhaul, and these schools needed to convey information and content in an organized and representable fashion. A partnership was created between A101 and the Pre-university Education team of Qatar Foundation to take on this task.
Who better than experts in the digital & educational field. We studied, benchmarked, prototyped, designed, and developed 12 websites for different schools, each with its own unique twist. All of them representing their main attributes and focusing on their respective age groups. Extensive websites with information about admissions, students, the community, galleries and much more.
All the websites had a focus on the element of being easy to use, navigate, and seamless UI/UX. The websites are also accessibly friendly with all of them being MADA certified for accessibility.

The below schools went live with their new websites:


Fit-Out Solutions Website

Bluu Qatar provides a variety of design and project management Fit-Out Solutions for different construction sectors in Qatar. Knowing A101’s previous work on similar projects, Bluu decided to partner with us for a complete revamp of their website, in addition to managing and creating new content.

We finalized their website, focusing on visuals and helping them highlight their projects to the world. We also managed their social media channels to further create awareness by creating a curated calendar plan, designing the content, as well as managing the social media platforms.
