Landing pages

Determine which segment and campaign combinations justify dedicated pages, optimise core elements, then A/B test systematically starting with highest-traffic pages.

Landing pages

Introduction

Landing page strategy has two layers: which pages to build (macro), how to optimise them (micro).

Macro planning prevents page sprawl. Not every segment or campaign combination justifies a dedicated page. Map segments against campaigns in a matrix. Identify which combinations justify separate pages based on traffic volume and message distance. Maximum 12 pages, preferably three. High volume segments with high message distance get dedicated pages.

Micro optimisation focuses on four elements: above-the-fold (headline, subhead, CTA), messaging (match ad promise to belief stage), proof type (data vs testimonials vs process), and call-to-action (demo vs trial vs download based on belief progression).

The cybersecurity compliance page needs regulatory proof and certification processes. The breach-reactive page needs incident data and quick implementation timelines. Same product, different proof, different CTA.

Lead gen tool pages split similarly. The paid-skeptic page needs outbound ROI proof and channel comparison data. The LinkedIn-first page needs email deliverability stats vs LinkedIn message limits. Same tool, different belief gap, different proof.

This playbook shows you how to determine required pages using a segment-campaign matrix, optimise the four core elements per belief stage, then A/B test systematically.

Chapters

1

Determine which pages to build

Map segment and campaign combinations in a matrix, identify which justify dedicated pages based on traffic volume and message distance, then prioritise by traffic to limit total pages to 3 to 12 maximum.

2

Optimise landing page elements

Optimise four core elements per page: above-the-fold (headline, value prop, CTA), messaging (address segment's belief gap), proof type (data vs testimonials vs process), and call-to-action (match readiness level).

3

A/B test landing pages

Test one element at a time starting with highest-traffic pages, track conversion rate by segment, prioritise headline and proof tests, then scale winners across similar pages.
