A High-Converting Landing Page’s Anatomy
Did you know your landing page requires a recipe to succeed. A high-converting landing page is like a magical recipe with just the right ingredients. Too much flour and the message is dry across your customer’s tongue. Not enough flavor and your customers aren’t enticed to convert. Following the recipe for the perfect website landing page with precision helps boost conversions. Gone are the days of hiring douchebag “Funnel Bros”. You can shed the fear of missing out on leads. All it takes is the right recipe. So what are the ingredients…exactly? What is it that make sales conversion rates soar? What keeps your customers coming back for more? Is it the design? The copy? The offer? Actually, it’s all of those things — and more. Creating an offer your customers can’t refuse requires accuracy and attention to detail. Make an entree even Gordon Ramsay would approve of. Take a seat at the dinner table and appeal to what matters most to buyers. Showing your customers you care and aim to make their lives easier is the only way to succeed. Remember: authenticity wins every single time. Your landing page should be an extension of your brand image with every ingredient necessary for success.
Before Creating a Landing Page
Before you start putting the pieces together, it’s essential to remember that every landing page has the same key elements. You may be itching to break the mold and differentiate yourself from the competition. The problem? If you don’t include the necessary ingredients, you’ll burn the kitchen to the ground. And your business right along with it. Don’t substitute flour for sprinkles. Add to the key ingredients instead of replacing them. As a business owner, you must understand who you’re serving. How and who you deliver your offer to will determine whether you sink or swim. There are five questions to ask yourself before building your leads page:
1. What is your goal?
The goal is to convince visitors to take action regarding your offer. If you want more bookings, every piece of copy should point the customers to that goal.
2. Who are the competitors?
Your competition is any other home service business that offers services similar to yours.
3. Who is the target audience?
Your target audience is the group of customers you want to serve. If you send your offer to the wrong people, you’ll end up stifling conversions and sales.
4. How did they arrive at my landing page?
Tracking which of your marketing channels produces the most results will allow you to optimize your strategy.
5. How do the conversions work?
A conversion is when the customer completes the desired action. The content and design of the page will impact the average conversion rate. Optimizing the marketing strategy for your home service business doesn’t have to be a losing game. Book a call with Wizard of Ads® today!
The Anatomy of a Landing Page
So what does a high-converting landing page look like? Below are the eight essential landing page elements that create the perfect recipe for success.
1: A Clear Unique Selling Position (USP)
A USP is a brief statement that tells potential customers what makes your business different from others in your industry. There are only so many home services you can offer. What makes your offers the obvious choice? What do you offer that other businesses don’t? Your USP should be prominently displayed so that visitors immediately know what to expect from your business. Including a USP can help with conversions and give potential customers a reason to choose your business over others.
2: An Eye-Catching Headline and Strong Supporting Copy
A strong headline is one of the most crucial features of your landing page. The goal is to catch and keep the customer's attention throughout the page. Paint the picture of what challenges your customer is currently facing. Maybe their AC unit is protesting as the hellish summer months roll in. Or the pipes to their throne room have closed up shop—and they’re a family of five. Addressing your customer’s pain points and how they manifest on a daily basis shows you know what they’re going through. Highlight how your offer is the solution they need and describe how their future could look.
3: Key Features, Benefits, and Advantages
Benefits and features are essential elements of a landing page because they provide value to potential customers. A feature is the function of the service you offer, and the benefit is the impact of that feature on the customer. The advantage is the actual felt need based on pain and pleasure points. Highlighting what your customer will get from your service creates a strong sense of why they should buy from you. When it comes to creating compelling benefits and features, focus on what your customers care about most. What are their pain points (think money, stress, time)?What are their pleasure points (think ROI, peace of mind, time savings)? How can your product or service help them achieve those things? Focusing on the customer's actual felt needs will help you isolate and articulate benefits and features that resonate most with them. As a result, they’ll want to learn more about what you have to offer.
4: Engaging and Personalized Content
Here’s the harsh truth. If you don’t make an effort to create engaging content, you don’t deserve the “good customers”. This all ties back to truly understanding the actual felt needs of your target audience. When you understand what actually matters to them most, you will serve them at the highest level? Therefore, what elements could you include on your landing page to draw their attention and retain their interest? Customer acquisition is never free. Whether you’re paying for advertising or investing your time, all of it has a cost. The smarter you work at connecting with your audience, the more conversions you’ll gain. Roll up your sleeves and remember: the only thing in magic pills is elbow grease.
5: Stunning Relevant Visuals (Images/Videos)
Another essential element of the perfect landing page is stunning visuals. This could be in the form of images, videos, or even infographics. Visuals capture your audience’s attention and give them a taste of what you have to offer. Powerful visuals communicate your message more effectively than text alone. When it comes to google conversion, studies show that including visuals can increase your conversion rate by up to 80%. People are more likely to remember information presented in a visually appealing way. Include pictures that accentuate the story you’re telling. Make sure your background image is congruent with the narrative.
6: Social Proof (Testimonials/Reviews)
People always want to know what other customers think about your service before taking the plunge. For example, including verifiable 5-star reviews and testimonials builds trust with your prospective customers. In contrast, a landing page without the social proof that verify your services may fail to optimize conversions.
7: Urgency
One way to secure high conversions is by incorporating urgency. Customers are more likely to follow through if faced with a time or supply limit. Offering a discount for your most popular service is the most obvious option, but limiting spot availability due to time constraints holds a much higher level of integrity. The key is to ensure you are not making unsubstantiated claims. As long as your use of urgency is strategic, you’ll see increased conversion rates in no time.
8: Your Goal - Hyperspecific Call-to-Action (CTA)
Your CTA is the soul of your landing page. It drives conversions and tells your visitors what to do next. A CTA can be as simple as a button that says "Buy Now" or "Sign Up". But it can also be more complex, like a form that asks for your name and email address. The CTA should be placed prominently on the page and visually stand out. Clear and concise, it should tell users exactly what they need to do next to fulfill their need. This element alone is the gateway to improving landing page conversion rates. Without a CTA, there’s nothing to measure. Customers need to be guided throughout the content and become inspired enough to take action.
A Great Landing Page Is…
A great landing page relies on its contents but also on its accessibility. The goal is to make the experience as effortless as possible. Your website conversion rate depends on it.
Fast
Fast-loading landing pages help with conversion by providing a better user experience. Users are likely to stay on your page if it loads quickly, increasing chances for a conversion. You can help ensure a fast-loading page by compressing images, using a content delivery network, and minifying code.
Shareable and clickable buttons
Shareable and clickable buttons provide customers with an easy way to take action. For example, your CTA button needs to lead to the action you want them to take. The goal is to make it as simple as possible for your customer. The fewer steps they have to take, the better.
Mobile-friendly
Most consumers in today’s market search the web on their phones. Without mobile optimization, you'll lose out on customers. A mobile-friendly landing page can help you:
- Rank higher in search results.
- Improve your click-through rate.
- Boost your conversion rate.
One mobile-friendly landing page example is for Apple’s iPhone. The mobile optimization includes large images and clear CTAs easy to tap on a small screen. Even the slightest adjustments help improve the mobile experience.
Uses emotion-evoking colors
Your brand colors should make your customers feel. Ensure continuity by sticking with your brand colors. Create cohesion across your images and colors relevant to your offer. The vibrant red of the Coca-Cola logo evokes excitement and passion. The forest green hue of the Starbucks logo symbolizes affluence and freshness. What emotion do you want to elevate in your customers when they think of you?
Contains “Thank You” Page
Creating a well-designed and thoughtfully written thank you page is a powerful way to show your appreciation. This will help you humanize your brand and foster a connection with your customers. A thank you page is also a tool to promote your website, blog, or social media channels. Include links back to your site to increase traffic and potential customers.
Tested
It’s always best practice to test your page before publishing it. Make sure the text lines up correctly. Click the buttons to check the CTA link and ensure it leads to the right place. Be sure to adjust the mobile view in the landing page builder. Test this version as well to confirm the changes you made reflect accurately. If the text is too small or something is missing, you can fix it before clicking publish.
Trackable
Last but not least, a great landing page is trackable. Analytics will tell you what customers do on it and what’s working (so you can fix what isn’t). Tracking data can help you:
- Understand how people are finding your site.
- See which marketing campaigns are working.
- Test different versions of your page to see what converts best.
- Make data-driven decisions about your site.
Every piece of data you receive is critical to your marketing strategy. It will enable you to optimize your landing page until you’re getting the results you want.
Turn Your Prospects into Buyers
The most important thing to remember is that your landing page must be relevant and useful to your target audience. Make sure that you're providing them with relevant content and a valuable offer. Include clear calls to action to guide your customers. With engaging, targeted content, you can create an effective landing page that will turn browsers into buyers.

An Epic Guide To Local SEO
Imagine a ship built strong and sturdy out of lines of code and keywords. The ship is out there, somewhere beyond the broadband horizon, leading businesses to a treasure trove of leads and everlasting traffic to their websites. Its name is local SEO. The vessel is notoriously difficult to track down and even more difficult to bring into a dock. But if you can manage it and hop aboard, you’re all but guaranteed to succeed. Every business with a physical location needs to understand local SEO. With a few key words typed into Google, a map showcasing the top businesses in the searcher’s area spring forward. It goes without saying that any business interested in growing wants to appear on the top of the map section. If your knowledge of local SEO isn’t as refined as you’d like, this guide is the one for you. We’ll tell you everything you need to know to land that ship. We’ll start this local SEO guide in the most logical place, its origins.
A Brief History of Search Engine Optimization and Its Evolution
Traveling back in time to the first days of the internet, it was pretty sparse. There were few websites to visit, so navigating the internet was simple and straightforward. It was similar to visiting a small local store. There isn’t much to see. However, fast forward a few years, and the internet expanded, a lot. Soon enough, it became massive. It had grown to such an extent that it was nearly impossible to navigate as you once would. It was no longer the lovely, innocent mainstreet shops. Now, it’s a mega mall with more stuff than anyone can conceive. Thankfully, search engines came along. They allow users to find the website they are looking for with less difficulty. The way that the search engines worked was simple. You type a certain phrase into the search bar, and the engine shows you websites that include that phrase. Even Google used that same approach. However, like any good business, Google had a trick up its sleeve. Google became the first search engine to use links between websites as a sign of which websites were trustworthy. Similar to how we as people trust a stranger more when they have a connection to someone we know. As of today, Google has ramped up even more. They now use hundreds of factors, which all carry different levels of importance to rank your website in search results. Like all things having to do with the internet, search engines and their ranking systems are complex. If you need help understanding it beyond the surface level, book a call with Wizard of Ads™.
The Difference Between SEO and Local SEO
Most people’s first question is, how is local SEO different from traditional SEO? Meanwhile, others fail to realize that there’s any difference between the two at all. Both SEO and local SEO focus on improving your rank in search engine results, so that more people will be able to find, contact, and convert into an appointment and subsequently, a sale. With that said, there are differences that you should definitely understand before you go moseying along. The first is that traditional SEO hones in on improving your website’s visibility on a national or worldwide scale. It aims to get your brand seen from coast to coast, no matter the physical location of your business. It’s perfectly happy introducing your brand to someone in New York, even if you’re in L. A. On the other hand, local SEO, as you may have guessed, allows you to hone in on your local search area. It reaches locals in your city in an effort to capture their attention. While you’re grasping for a smaller audience with local SEO, you’re in front of more of the right people. 46 percent of all Google searches have local intent, and 80 percent of local searches on mobile devices convert into viable leads. That’s a massive opportunity for your business. However, even if they’re different in their overall aim, traditional SEO and local SEO use the same strategies. Aside from a few special ones, local SEO uses to connect you with your audience, including Google Local Service Ads (LSA). You're not to blame if you aren’t familiar with Local Service Ads. They are fairly new on the Google scene. But you can learn more here.
Ranking Factors
Do you recall the hundreds of ranking factors that are each valued differently? Well, it’s time that we revisit those and come to understand them on a deeper level. Don’t panic! You don’t need to understand all 200, only those with the highest value. At their core, ranking factors are the criteria that Google uses when evaluating websites to determine the best order of results. Understanding those factors is necessary for effective SEO. That goes for all marketers, creators, and everyday SEO professionals. If you don’t understand them and you’re trying to make effective results in those fields, good luck. Unfortunately, you’ll need it because they aren’t the only important thing, but they are essential to elevating your domain rank. An elite user experience leads to more conversions. Below, we’re going to cover the most important factors.
Major Categories of Google’s Ranking Factors:
The following categories and factors within are the ones proven to yield the strongest impact on search results. They’re sort of similar to those weighted questions on those exams we all dreaded. This time your grade isn’t on the line. Your business is. So continue reading below and study up.
1. Domain Factors
Domain factors are all the ranking factors that connect your domain (website) to search engine results. If there were levels to these factors, these would be level one. The domain factors that Google will pay attention to include:
- First keywords in your domain
- Domain registration length
- Penalized WHOIS owner (Google designates owners of spam websites as Penalized WHOIS owners.)
- Public WHOIS instead of private WHOIS
- Keyword in subdomains
- The history of the domain
- The age of your domain
- Keywords in your domain
2. Page-Level Factors
Page-level factors are fairly straightforward. There are factors on each page that you can optimize. Essentially, all the pages on your website. Those factors include:
- The appearance of the keyword in the H1 tag
- The frequency of keywords used in the content
- Keyword at the beginning of the meta title
- The length of the content
- Word count
- Presence of a linked table of contents
- Density of keywords
- The presence of the keyword in the title tag
- Keywords in the meta description
3. Site-Level Factors
Site-level factors go beyond the surface level of the page, and instead, they look at the entire website. Basically, a bird's eye view of the website. Site-level factors include:
- The presence of a sitemap
- Long-term downtime
- Location of the server
- Appropriate contact information
- Content on site that brings value or insight
- TrustRank (how closely linked your website is to another trusted website. This is that factor that Google launched early on that we mentioned.)
- Website updates determine a freshness factor
- The architecture of the website
- The presence of a contact us page
4. Backlink Factors
Backlink factors look at the websites linking you to determine where to place or rank your page. Typically speaking, the higher quality websites linking to your website, the higher you’ll rank. That is assuming you have high-quality content to match. Backlink factors include:
- The trust factor of the linked page
- The number of referring domains
- The age of the linked domain
- Anchor text of backlinks
- ALT tag of image links on the website
- The number of connections from separate c-class IPs
- The number of referring pages
- Number of links from .edu and .gov domains
- The trust factor of the linked page
5. User Interaction
If there’s one thing we know about Google, it’s that they love a website with an elite user experience. Even in the update announcements, they show how important it is. To demonstrate how serious they are, they use several factors to measure user interaction. Then rank your page accordingly. User interaction factors include:
- The organic click-through rate for the exact keyword
- The organic click-through rates for every ranking keyword
- Repeat visitors
- Blocked websites
- Dwell time (dwell time is the measure of time that a user spends viewing a document after clicking a link.)
- How users interact on your website
- Overall direct traffic
- Bounce rate (the number of people who visit your page and leave without viewing other pages on your website)
6. Special Google Algorithm Rules
A handful of Google Algorithm rules do not link to your page or domain. Believe it or not. They involve factors that look at personalizing search results for the user or better search results in general. Here are some of those rules that you should know about:
- Diversity in the SERP
- Freshness in the SERP
- The browsing history of the user
- Search history of the user
- Adult content or curse words (websites with that content are not present in safe search results.)
7. Brand Signals
Many heavily valued factors are linked directly to your brand. Those factors include:
- Branded searches
- Your brand and keyword searches
- Branded anchor text
- Brand’s official LinkedIn
- Your brand’s Twitter with followers
- Facebook page, ideally with a lot of likes
8. On-Site Webspam Factors
Let’s get one thing straight. Spam doesn’t rank on search engines. If your website even looks the slightest bit spammy, you could be hurting your search engine results. Here are some factors that Google uses to track your spammy traits:
- Links to sketchy websites
- A lot of redirects
- Popups that are difficult to close
- Over-optimizing the site
- Hidden redirects
- Flagged server IP address
- Low-quality content (honestly, who likes that?)
- Distracting/spammy appearing ads
9. Off-Site Webspam Factors
Off-site webspam factors take a deep look at all of the websites connected to yours. Specifically, looking at what they do. The off-site webspam factors include:
- Low-quality backlinks
- A high percentage of links from unrelated websites
- Automatic links inclosed in widgets
- An unnatural and sudden increase in backlinks
- A hacked site
- Links from sites with the same server IP
- Low-quality directory links
Get Started with Local SEO
Okay, we’ve covered the history of search engines, the difference between traditional and local SEO, and many, many ranking factors. With all of that serving as the foundation of your knowledge, you’re undoubtedly ready to get started. So it’s time we get to the highlight of our epic little guide here. Here are your step-by-step instructions on how to get started with local SEO. Let’s jump right in.
Claim your Google Business Profile
Formerly known as Google My Business or GMB, Google Business Profile is hailed as fantastic among business owners. Why? Here’s a quick rundown of Google Business Profile. Keep in mind that we’re only going over the basics here. Google Business Profile is a totally free directory listing tool offered by Google. It allows businesses to create and manage their online presence across all of Google’s platforms, including search results, maps, and more. Using a GBP, you can quickly build your online presence, not as an influencer but as a business. For instance, you can upload images and videos, create post updates, respond to customer reviews, and even optimize your website for visibility in search engines. There’s truly no better way to win a search engine’s game than using one of their tools, right?
Local Directories and Listings
A local business directory lists vital information about your business. That information can include your hours, location, contact information, pictures, and other relevant information, like reviews and important links. These directories and listings can be local, such as one for HVAC companies in [BLANK] part of New York. However, they can also be global, such as Google Business, which is the single largest one available. These directories and listings can also be free to join, so you have no excuse not to be on them.
Test for Mobile-friendliness
The user experience is incredibly important to Google. It’s equally important to your potential customers. And with 80 percent of mobile searches converting into leads, it’s in your best interest to ensure your website looks and operates well. You can use Google’s Mobile-Friendly Testing Tool to check your website. You test through code or URL. Give it a try.
Utilize Local SEO-relevant keywords
The first step to utilizing those keywords is finding them. And to do that, you need to understand which search queries most of your audience uses to find you. For that, you use tools like Google’s Keyword Planner. It gives you insight into how often people search for certain words and how those searches have changed over time. There’s also [Semrush](https://www.semrush.com/lp/keyword-research-b-1/en/?kw=google keyword planner&cmp=US_SRCH_Keyword_Magic_Tool_EN&label=keyword_magic_tool&Network=g&Device=c&utm_content=485546553093&kwid=kwd-59330883096&cmpid=11126975927&agpid=112799974527&BU=Core&extid=124582948312&adpos=&gclid=Cj0KCQjwzLCVBhD3ARIsAPKYTcSbjDt0sK0j0dCr-z_ychBu6aj08qoofY1wWKkH1OSSptj5ay-dl14aApPSEALw_wcB), which works nearly the same.
Get more Google My Business reviews
Google reviews provide essential information to people viewing your Google Business Profile and help your business stand out. To get more reviews, Google recommends verifying your account so that you appear on maps, searches, and other services. But they also recommend that you remind customers to leave reviews and reply to reviews as they come in.
Use Local Schema Markup tags
Schema markup is basically a code you can use to markup elements for your website. When you markup those elements, you help search engines understand them better. Thus, making them rank higher. It also improves your digital brand presence, which is always more than helpful. Here’s [a good resource](https://neilpatel.com/blog/get-started-using-schema/#:~:text=How to Use Schema Markup for SEO) that can tell you exactly how to use Schema markup to your advantage. There it is… our epic guide. That covers the majority of what there is to offer on local SEO. To wrap up, let’s go over what you need to do now that you’ve come this far. First, reread this starting from Get Started with Local SEO. However, as you read it this time, click every link we’ve inserted. That way, you can fully absorb all the information you truly need to understand. If you can do that, you’ll have a much easier time setting up your Google Business Profile and every other step after that. When you’re ready for more help on your SEO journey, something that goes beyond all of the guides out there, book a call with Wizard of Ads™.

Home Service Ads: The 2 Essential Elements in Successful Ads
Gone are the days when people looked through phone books to find a Plumber. These days, people use ‘The Googles’ for anything and everything, including finding home service providers. In order to be found online, you need to have a website, paid advertising, and a healthy digital presence. But even if you have those things, you still need to let people know what kind of characters they are working with and why you are the provider of choice. This is where home service ads come in. Have you come upon the task of writing home service ads? Or approving the ads written by others? Then you should know hard it is to write a great ad.
Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. - Leonardo Da Vinci
Not just any ad will do. There are two essential elements that make up a successful home service ad. Keep reading to learn what they are! But first... We should probably talk about the elephant in the room. Ya know, the invisible ads that don’t actually live for more than 7 days, tops (because, you know…science).
Invisible Ads
You know the ones. They list every service you offer in minute detail and they read like a laundry list of features, hours of operation, location, and huh. What? What was I saying? Oh right. The ads that tell people how long you’ve been open, the friendly and knowledgeable staff who all have passed a background check (except for Bruno. We don’t talk about Bruno, though, no no no). These ads are often created by a committee of people who think more is better. They want to make sure the reader knows everything about the company and how and what they do, never why they do it. But here's the thing... Nobody cares. I mean, literally nobody. The only thing any given person cares about is making the pain go away, and a return to peace…order…calm…normalcy, if and when that pain ever were to arise, which, in their minds, will likely not. So boring them with this ASMR patter is simply white noise. Wizard of Ads® understands that funny little gatekeeper in the brain known as Broca’s Area. We know how to kick down the door, bust past that little tyrant, protecting the brain from the mundane. If you don’t have a clue what Broca’s Area is or how to persuade your way into the imagination, the only thing you have to do next is book a call, cause your nonsensical adspeak isn’t getting you anywhere. You're probably wondering how we do it. We won't write feature-heavy ads because we know they don't work. Instead, we focus on creating ad copy that is new, interesting, and different, so that your incredibly entertaining message takes up residence in the echoic retention of the brain. Trust me, I’m a nerd.
Clichés are Déjà Vu
Look, you’re not writing the script for Groundhog Day. Clichés are cliché for a reason. They are too familiar.
#1 best! Friendly and Experienced! Better prices! 40 years in business! World-famous!
**STOP IT!!!**We've all seen ads like this before, and we tune them out instantly. Why? Because they are unsubstantiated claims that literally anyone can (and often do) say. Not only do they blend into the background, they make you look like a bit of a knob. If you want your ad to be memorable, you have to say something worth remembering. Since only a fraction of 7% of your marketplace needs your thing at any time (that hasn’t been spoken for), you’re going to need advertising that entertains people far before they ever need your thing. This opens you up to 68% of your marketplace and gives you the time to build an earworm inside their heads with an evolving message that they WANT to recall. Cause it’s funny. Or interesting. Or downright different. And when your thing makes them look more funny, interesting, and different, you win. Listen to this: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1J47Rbo2BQmhGtIRL6MJPWnWCVKVvr0jB/view?usp=sharing Now that's entertaining! And it's something that sets this plumbing company apart from ALL the others.
If you want an ad that people will remember, you need to say something worth remembering. -Ryan Chute
2 Essential Elements for Successful Residential Home Service Ads
When it comes to creating successful residential home services ads, there are two key elements you need to keep in mind: Impact and Frequency.
IMPACT
Impact means that your ad needs to be new, different, and interesting. The best way to do this is to say things that nobody else would say, speak to the real felt needs (money, energy, and time) and entertain the trousers off them until they need your thing.
- Targeting Strategy: The truth is that you can target a prospective buyer in 2 ways. You can target them by dialing into demographics, geographics, and psychographics, cutting out all the other potential listeners or viewers. Alternatively, you can target with copy, saying things that will naturally be shared by both the ‘right people’ and ‘wrong people’. Bought right, you will spend a fraction of the cost with copy targeting.
FREQUENCY
Frequency of the right message is key when it comes to effective, long-term advertising. You need to make sure your ad is heard by as many people as possible, and the only way to do that is to repeat it at a very specific frequency for it to seep back from the electrical memory into the chemical memory. The more people who hear your ad (reach) at the correct frequency, the more people who will sell you real estate in their heart and mind for that faithful day that they need your thing.
- Sleep: Sleep is the ultimate eraser. The average person is exposed to over 25,000 sensory inputs a day, and most of them are forgotten within seconds. If you have something really worth remembering, and the receiver has made an effort to retain the information, the longest your message can ride it out is 7 days. This is any and all information with low impact that is residing in the electrical part of the brain. Essentially, this is the working RAM of your brain, where you typically can retain up to 7 things at any given time. That's why it's important to make your high-impact ads follow a very specific frequency. With a great message and sufficient frequency, you can make your way into the chemical area of the brain when you’re brand is put into long-term storage. The high the impact, the easier it is to recall. The higher the frequency, the more likely it is to retain.
Beware the lawyer who takes himself as a client. There are many many more ways to get taken advantage of in a media buy than there are to get it right. Do not be fooled into believing that you will get the right frequency, at the right time, with the right crossover traffic of listeners, at the right price, with the right advertising copy, from your media buyer. They simply have no idea how to build the right frequency, let alone the right creative, to get you the results you deserve. Always leave your media buy and creative to the experts, like us. Call for a no-obligation conversation to see what I’m talking about.
UNRESOLVED: The Silent Assassin of Advertising
Bad advertising is about you and your company. Great advertising is about your customer and their life. But how do you go about telling your story in these little episodes you are putting on the air? Ads that poop out a bunch of uninspired information about your business or try desperately to entice the audience to answer your Call-To-Action (even though they don’t need your thing right now) are stupid. There, I said it. You’re wasting your money. It is heartbreaking. But this time it’s different! This time you have something interesting to say. This time you have a story about your customer that you want to tell. But what is the best way to tell it? Try this:
- Problem: Your hero (the customer) has an insurmountable challenge. A villainous foe that is eating up their money, causing them stress, or devouring their time (keep it to one thing).
- Transition: Oh No! What shall they do? I know…
- Resolution: At your company, you solve this one terrible thing, use this potion, elixir, weapon, process, or service, and live happily ever after.
If you don’t tell the story of the problem, you’re not saying anything interesting. If your message is all resolution, you’re not eliciting an emotional response trigger for the felt need. THE PAIN! These ads feel incongruent and limp. These ads are not worth remembering. You in no way can tell them something new, interesting, or different if everything is ONLY coming up Millhouse. The assassin? You tell a great story but don’t leave room for the resolution. Your ad feels…unfinished. Unresolved. Ads shouldn’t have cliffhangers. The more your ad resolves things in a satisfactory way, the more you resonate with your audience.
Are You Starting to See Why Successful Branded Advertising is So Rare?

The Biggest Risk of Bonding Campaigns
The most effective form of branding for residential home service businesses is through bonding campaigns that attract relational customers.
Bonding campaigns that attract relational customers are the most powerful form of branding possible for the vast majority of local businesses.
And that goes double for Ugly Duckling Businesses.
[And if you’re not familiar with those terms, follow the links]
So what’s the downside?
There is no downside, but there is a risk. And it’s a big one.
To quote Spiderman’s Uncle Ben: “With great power comes great responsibility”.
When you form an emotional bond with customers — when an audience feels as if they know you and what you stand for — the great responsibility that comes along with that persuasive power is this:
YOU MUST LIVE UP TO YOUR PROMISES AND DECLARED VALUES
Normally, when a business falls short, customers are merely disappointed or frustrated.
Not so with relational customers and businesses to which they’ve bonded.
When those businesses let them down, relational customers feel betrayed by a friend, rather than merely disappointed by an impersonal company.
This is why smart ad consultants always build branding campaigns around the truth.
The resultant campaign may romanticize or dramatize the truth, but it starts with and remains centered on the truth about the owner and the company.
What to Do When You Goof
But no one is perfect! Even great companies occasionally goon things up.
Sure. But when that happens, you have to understand the seriousness of the situation.
The worst thing you can do is treat it as no big deal, or attempt a half-measure during your service recovery operations.
As in “Oh, we broke our promise that the owners been vowing to you on the air for the last X years? Well, how about a slight discount on _____”
Sorry, but, no — a slight discount ain’t going to cut it!
First, your communication to the customer has to acknowledge the terrible gap between what’s been declared and promised and what was delivered.
If your staff communicates with the customer as if this is not that big a deal (i.e., a routine mix-up), you’re sunk.
The customer will feel as if she’s seen behind the curtain to discover just another crappy company rather than a trustworthy friend.
Second, your attempts to “make good” must be full-measured rather than half-hearted.
Half-measures add insult to injury and further indicate that your company sees this as just a minor blip, rather than a major failing.
Third, if possible the owner should personally reach out with an apology.
Again, treat this situation as if you’ve let a friend down rather than had a business snafu.
The good news is that proper service recovery can strengthen the bond between the customer and the company, making them an even stronger advocate for you.
The bad news is that improper service recovery can lead to poisonous word of mouth from that customer.
Again, with great power comes great responsibility.
And bonding campaigns are the most powerful advertising you can run.

Factors That Affect Your Conversion Rate [+ CRO Statistics]
Is there one magic answer to increasing your website’s conversion rate? Sadly, no. There are, however, a number of factors that can affect how many visitors turn into customers.
Is there one magic answer to increasing your website’s conversion rate? Sadly, no. There are, however, a number of factors that can affect how many visitors turn into customers. In this article, we will take a look at some of the statistics around CRO (conversion rate optimization). We’ll offer conversion-boosting techniques any website can use.
Conversion Rate is Greatly Dependent on:
Visitor Interests
Conversion rates are greatly affected by the interests of your website visitors. If you want to boost conversions, it’s important to understand what interests your target audience so that you can cater to those interests. By doing so, you’ll be more likely to conversion rates and make your website more successful overall.
Sounds obvious, doesn’t it? But truly understanding the subtle, and at times, hidden nuances of visitor interests can be challenging. Many digital marketers miss the mark completely when it comes to aligning with their prospective audience.
But you’re probably wondering how you can be sure you’re hitting the mark understanding your visitors’ interests. The Google Analytics tool is a helpful resource for loads of information about your site visitors.
Attractiveness of Your Offer
You may be wondering how you can make your offer more attractive to potential customers. If your offer isn’t attractive, people are less likely to convert.
Here are a few tips to make your offer more attractive for higher conversion rates:
- Use images. People are visual creatures, and an image can be worth a thousand words when it comes to attraction. Make sure the images you use are high quality and relevant to your offer.
- Be clear about you’re offer. Vagueness will only turn people away. Be specific and simple. Let people know exactly what they’ll get when they take you up on your offer.
- Be different. If you offer what nobody else offers, and your value stack is bigger than your competitors value stack, you are sure to turn some heads. Not incongruent different. Not weird different. Better different. No brainer different. Be like Costco.
User Experience (UX)
You’ve likely heard that user experience is important for things like website design and conversion rates. But what exactly is user experience, and how can it impact your conversion rates?
User eXperience (UX) is all about how a person feels when using a product or service. This includes everything from the initial interaction to continued use. A good UX is important because it will keep people coming back to your site or product. On the other hand, a bad UX will drive people away.
So, how does UX impact conversion rates? Simply put, the better the UX, the higher the conversion rate will be. This is because people are more likely to convert if they have a positive experience with your site or product.
How about a little magic potion of what features formulate the best user experience? You should have:
- Fast site speed.
- Easy navigation.
- Responsive design.
- Humanized Copywriting.
- CTA buttons.
- Landing pages.
Now, this is getting a bit interesting, eh? Well don’t worry. If you have questions, just book a call with Wizard of Ads®!
Important Conversion Rate Statistics
Marketing Researchers devote a significant amount of time to organizing, developing, and implementing tests, as well as assessing the outcomes. They are continually working to improve KPIs and outcomes.
Whether it’s figuring out the ideal subject line for a higher open rate, the perfect CTA and creative combo for click throughs, or shaving time off your website load time to lower bounce rate. Let’s take a look at some important CRO statistics.
- A/B testing is the most common type of CRO testing, with 56 percent of marketers employing it.

- More than 20 percent of firms indicate that they lack an effective approach for landing page testing.
What Drives a Higher Conversion Rate?
Higher conversion rates are the result of a well-executed marketing strategy. By targeting the right audience and offering them something they want or need, you encourage more people to take the desired action. Additionally, making it easy for potential customers to find your website and navigate your pages can also boost conversion rates.
Here are some tips for driving higher conversion rates:
- Know your target audience.
- Offer something they want or need.
- Make it easy for them to find your site and navigate your pages.
- Use persuasive copy and calls to action.
- Test, test, test! Try different techniques and see what works best for your business.
Factors that Affect Conversion Rate — Your Ads or Your Website
If you’ve been in business for any length of time, you already know that conversions are the key. What’s the use in spending all that money on ads or designing a website that looks great if no one ever converts?
But what causes people to convert? Is it the design of your ad or your website? The wording? The offer? It can be hard to figure out what’s working and what isn’t. Let’s examine some of the factors that affect conversion rate so you can start seeing better results.
Value Proposition
Your value proposition is what affects your conversion rates in advertising. In order to have higher conversion rates, you need to make sure that your value proposition is strong and clear. There are two factors that affect your value proposition and, as a result, your conversion rates.
The first factor is the offer itself. The more compelling the offer, the more likely people are to convert. Make sure that your offer is addressing an actual pain point (Money, Energy, Time). Avoid discounting in lieu of value stacking.
The second factor is the audience. If you have been running a branded campaign in alignment with your lead gen, then stick to a message consistent with your branding and appeal to the relational buyer. If all you want are Transactional Shoppers, then focus your copy on the things that appeal to people looking for the lowest price. This matters a lot if you haven’t been running a complimentary branded campaign that would give a person a reason to measure on something other than price.
Relevance
Making your ads relevant to your target audience is one of the most important factors in achieving higher conversion rates. If your ad is not relevant to the user, they are less likely to click on it and more certainly going to ignore you.
There are a number of ways to make your ads more relevant. These include targeting specific keywords, customizing your ad copy, and using relevant images.
When it comes to advertising, relevance is everything. Making your ads relevant to your target audience significantly improves your chances of converting them into customers or leads.
Relevance becomes far more meaningful when you run a well crafted branded campaign that brings more and more brandable chunks to the forefront of the conversation and reticular activator.
Clarity and Consision
It’s no secret that clarity and concision (eliminating redundancy) are important factors in advertising. If your message is clear and concise, people are more likely to understand it and take the action you want.
Virtually no one understands your products, services, and website, so it’s really important to make it as understandable as possible. Short, sweet, and to-the-point is how we roll.
Credibility
It’s no secret that conversion rates are important for any business with an online presence. Conversion rates are what determine whether or not your lead generation is effective. Credibility plays a big role in conversion rates. Studies have shown that credibility can increase conversion rates by up to 200%. So yeah, it’s kind of a big deal.
So, what makes a website or advertisement credible? There are a few key factors, including design, customer reviews, and testimonials.
For example, a well-designed website or an advertisement with a landing page is more likely to be seen as credible than one that looks like it was slapped together quickly without much thought.
Sense of Urgency
Creating a sense of urgency is one of the most effective ways to increase conversion rates on your ads or website. By limiting the time or supply of a specific solution, you can encourage people to take action now rather than later.
There are a few different ways to create a sense of urgency. Be specific, because when you use unsubstantiated claims like, “act now”, or, “while supplies last”, you just look like an asshole. Instead, tell a story about a specific quantity buy, where, when they all run out, they gone. Like, gone gone. This is known as a feature buy, and doesn’t need to be a discounted price to sell, it just needs to be an accessible price.
Another way to create urgency is to offer discounts for a limited time only. This can be an effective way to get people to buy now rather than wait, but you will both lose your credibility as a company with integrity and you immediately eliminate you chance of making it into the long term memory of the buyer when it does come time that they need your services. If you are desparate to fill the board with appointments, a limited time offer with a ridiculously aggressive price are always a last ditch effort. Just be carful not to get addicted to the false hope they are instilling in you, even as we speak.
Best Practices in Improving Your Conversion Rates
- Remove all extraneous form fields.
- Insert relevant branding.
- Remove all distractions.
- Make the first step as simple (and cheap) as consistently possible.
- Include a third-party sign-up service.
- Improve your CTA.
- Include live chat on your website.
- Consider a more relevant offer to actual pain points.
- Provide a risk-free guarantee.
- Include a countdown timer (#dangerzone).
- Start with the small sale to gain their trust and loyalty.
- Run A/B (split) tests.

Click Through Rate(CTR): Improving Your Ad Clicks
Did you know that the average click-through rate (CTR) for display ads is a measly 0.05 percent? Ouch. That means if you have a banner ad out there, only 1 in 2,000 people will click on it. So how do you make sure your ad has the best chance at being clicked? We're here to help! Keep reading for our tips on improving your CTR and getting those all-important clicks.
Clickthrough Rate (CTR): Definition
The CTR of your ad is the number of clicks divided by the number of times it is shown: clicks / impressions = CTR. A CTR can provide you with insight into the performance of your keywords, advertisements, and free listings. Think of your website like a shop on a busy street. If the store is clean, brightly lit, and has interesting displays, more people are going to stop and look. The same is true for your website. Love it or hate it, one of the most essential measures is the clickthrough rate (CTR) for digital marketers. But what is CTR, exactly? And how can you make sure your content gets the best possible CTR? If the content is well designed and easy to use, people will be more likely to click through to your content. In this blog post, we’ll explain what CTR is, how you can improve yours, and some tips for doing so.
Organic CTR
The clickthrough rate (CTR) is a key metric for measuring the success of your online advertising campaigns. It tells you how many individuals really click on your ad when they see it. A high CTR means your ad is relevant and engaging. And that there is a need for what you have to give. A low CTR could indicate that your ad is not relevant to your target audience or that it’s not well-designed. Organic CTR is a measure of how often people click on your organic (unpaid) search results. A high organic CTR means that your website is relevant and attractive to searchers. A low organic CTR could mean that your website needs some work. Organic CTR is often indicative of a healthier branded advertising campaign running in alignment with your SEO efforts.
Google Ads CTR
We all look things up on Google. And each time we do – boom – the first results that pop up are always ads. But what makes these ads so special that they’re at the top of the list? Isn't that where you want your adverts to appear? #yup But advertising is no longer throwing money at an advertising platform (like Google) and expecting it to produce impactful results. High CTRs takes grit, talent, and of course, following the guidelines Google requires. This step takes structure, intention, and planning. If you don’t manage your Google Ads account correctly and effectively, your CTRs will be low – oh no! Woah, woah, woah…no need to worry. Because booking a call with Wizard of Ads® will help you with how to advertise on Google.
Why Should You Care About Your Google Ads CTR?
Without becoming an ad for Google Ads, let’s briefly discuss the pros of paid ads. You have a lot of control over how you spend your money with Google Ads. For example, there is no minimum. You can also decide how much money you want to spend on a monthly, daily, or even per advertisement basis. You only pay if someone clicks on your ad. So I suppose the trick is, if you don’t want to spend a lot of money, just configure terrible ads. I guess. Maybe not…The most common marketing tool today is Google Ads. By optimizing your CTR, you can significantly increase your chances for success with Google Ads. Here's why marketers care about Google Ads CTR:
- CTR is a key metric for success with Google Ads.
- A higher CTR means more successful campaigns and lower costs per conversion.
- CTR is a good indicator of campaign effectiveness and can be used to track progress over time.
- Optimizing your CTR can have a significant impact on your campaign results.
- By optimizing your CTR, you can help your campaigns convert to sales.
- Google Ads can be customized to meet your specific marketing needs.
Save Money by Optimizing Your Clickthrough Rate
If you're not using Google Ads to promote your business, you're missing out on a huge opportunity. With over 2 billion active users, Google is the most popular search engine in the world. And that means there's a lot of potential customers out there who could be clicking on your ads. But if your clickthrough rate (CTR) isn't optimized, you could be wasting a lot of money on those ads. Luckily, there are a few simple things you can do to improve your CTR and get more bang for your buck.
8 Ways To Improve Your Google Ads CTR
1. Improve Your Quality Score
What is a quality score, exactly? If you don’t know, it’s the perfect place to begin with your Google PPC ad campaign. The Google Quality Score is a number that determines how effective your ad campaigns are going to show up nearer the top of the search results. The Google Quality Score is a number that determines how effective your ad campaigns are. As a result, click-through rates are higher and cost-per-click is cheaper. Check out Google’s guide for quality score here. Here are some tips on how to improve your quality score:
- Use relevant keywords in your ad campaigns. Relevancy is one of the key factors that determines your quality score, so make sure you're targeting the right keywords.
- Check to see if your advertising are appropriate for your landing pages. Your adverts and landing pages should have a strong connection. Otherwise people will click away from your site before they even have a chance to conversion.
- Use positive customer reviews and testimonials.
2. Optimize Your Ad Extensions
One of the most significant things you can do to boost your ad's click-through rate is to use ad extensions (CTR). Ad extensions are extra pieces of data that you might include in your ad. These can be anything like your phone number, address, or a call to action. Google offers a variety of ad extensions, and you can use as many or as few as you want. However, it's important to note that not all ad extensions are created equal. Some ad extensions, like callouts and structured snippets, are generally more effective than others, like sitelinks. Callouts are short pieces of text that highlight specific features of your product or service. They can be up to 25 characters long, and you can have up to 4 per ad. Similar to callouts, structured snippets allow you to convey extra information about your product or service. Unlike callouts, however, you can't control what information is included in your structured snippet. Sitelinks are hyperlinks to other pages on your site that you wish to draw attention to. You can have up to 6 sitelinks per ad. Some other types of Google Ad extensions are:
- Sitelink ad extension
- Call extensions
- Promotion extensions
- Price extensions
Ways to optimize your ad extensions:
- Think about what information would be most useful to potential customers. If you're a local business, for example, then including your address and phone number may be more effective than including additional links to your website.
- Keep it relevant. Only include ad extensions that are relevant to the product or service that you're advertising. Including an extension for your business hours or ‘Book an Appointment’ are great examples of ideal ad extensions.
- Keep it short and sweet. Don't try to cram too much information into your ad extension.
3. Use Smart Bidding
What is smart bidding? Smart bidding is a feature in Google Ads that allows you to automatically set bids based on your goals. You can tell Google that you want to maximize clicks. Or that you want to get the most conversions at the lowest cost. Why should you care about smart bidding? Because it can help you improve your click through rate (CTR), which is one of the key factors that determines your ad quality score. A higher quality score means your ads are more likely to be shown, and they're also more likely to be shown at a lower cost per click. There are a few different ways to use smart bidding to improve your CTR. One is to use keyword level bidding, which allows you to set separate bids for each keyword. This way, you can make sure that your most important keywords are getting the biggest bid. If you're looking for a way to improve your Google Ads CTR, smart bidding is a great option. By using smart bidding strategies, you can make sure that your ads are effective.
4. Test Your Ads
Like I said before–”test, test, test!” Advertisers on Google Ads are always looking for ways to improve their click-through rate (CTR). One way to do this is by testing different versions of your ad. Ad testing, also known as A/B testing, is a process of comparing two ads to see which one performs better. To test your ads on Google Ads, create two identical campaigns, with only the ad copy differing between the two. Then, run each campaign for a week and compare the CTRs. The campaign with the higher CTR is the winner! Ad testing is an essential tool for any advertiser looking to improve their Google Ads performance. By constantly testing and improving your ads, you can ensure that you are getting the most out of your advertising spend.
5. Create Captivating Ad Copy
If you want your Google Ads to perform well, you need to start with captivating ad copy. After all, no matter how well-targeted your ad campaign is, it won't matter if your ad doesn't capture attention and persuade users to click. So how do you write captivating ad copy that will improve your click-through rate (CTR)?Here are some pointers:
- Write a strong headline. Your headline should be attention-grabbing and relevant to the user's search query.
- Use engaging visuals. Ad images can also help to captivate users and encourage them to click on your ad.
- Use persuasive language. Choose your words carefully to convince users that your product or service is the right solution for their needs.
- Offer a compelling value proposition. Make sure that users know what they can expect by clicking on your ad, and make it clear why your offer is better than the competition.
By following these tips, you can create captivating ad copy that will improve your CTR and help you achieve success with your Google Ads campaigns.
6. Utilize Negative Keywords
If you're running a Google Ads campaign, negative keywords are your best friend. Negative keywords help improve your click through rate (CTR). By ensuring that only individuals who are truly interested in what you're selling see your ad. For illustration, in a case where you offer men's shoes, you'd need to include "women" as a negative keyword. This is so your ad doesn't show up when someone searches for "women's shoes." Adding negative keywords to your campaign is tedious, but it's well worth the effort in terms of improved CTRs. So, following time you're setting up a modern Google Ads campaign, take the opportunity to add some negative keywords. Then watch your CTRs improve.
7. Split Test Your Ads
Split-testing your ads is a great way to improve your click-through rates (CTRs). By split-testing, you can compare two different versions of your ad to see which one performs better. For example, you could split-test the headline of your ad, or the call to action. To split-test your ads, simply create two identical ad campaigns in Google Ads. And then change one element in one of the campaigns, leaving the other one as written and designed. For example, in one campaign you use the headline, "50 percent off first purchase," and in the other campaign you could use the headline "Get your first purchase half price." Then, run both campaigns for a period of time and see which one gets more clicks.
8. Run a Dynamic Remarketing Campaign
Have you ever been scrolling through your Facebook, and see an ad for something you were looking at on Amazon? That’s remarketing, and it can be a powerful tool for driving clicks and sales. But what is remarketing, exactly? How can you create a remarketing campaign that will improve your click-through rates (CTRs) on Google Ads? Remarketing is the method of targeting ads to people who have indicated an interest in your item or service. This can be done through a few devices. Cookies, which track people’s online activity is one way. Or through pixel tracking, which permits you to target individuals who go to your website. There are two primary ways to set up a remarketing campaign: through Google Ads or through Facebook Ads. Google Ads offers a more traditional approach to remarketing. Allowing you to target people based on their previous interactions with your website. Facebook Ads give you the opportunity to create custom audiences. Which allows you to target people based on their interests and demographics. If you’d like some help increase your click through rates, booking a call with Wizard of Ads®!
