Why static landing pages are good for Internet marketing

Everyone selling a product or service on the Internet should know what a Landing Page is and how to use it effectively. A good Landing Page could very well triple and quadruple the number of quality visitors to your web site, where, of course, you have at least the opportunity to make new customers.

What is a good Landing Page? Well, add the word "Static" into the title and you have a good start. Static text will repeat key words as it summarizes the description of your product or service. Remember, a good Landing Page is narrow in scope, and very specific; you want to saturate the page with relevant content so the major Search Engines will recognize the page as being superior in importance for those key words, and give it a higher placement in the search results.

You also want the Internet visitor to "Land" exactly where they wanted to land - on a page that is rich in content to what they are searching for, undiluted by irrelevant information and self promotion.

Internet marketing opens the entire world to you at very little cost. It does the same for your competitor so you must be at the top of your game in order to stand out. Here's what you need to accomplish on the first visit:

1) Capture and keep the interest of a web page visitor within the first 15 seconds.
2) Compel the visitor to take some kind of action.
3) Offer something of real value for free - delivered to their email.

You can only do so much with a new visitor. If you have a product that is typically sold in Retail Stores and on Internet Stores, then a Landing Page specific to a category (toy cars, toy dolls, and etc.) will likely increase those sales to a much higher level than otherwise could be realized. More expensive items (real cars, real estate, and etc.) require that you develop trust and be considered somewhat of an expert on those items. The Landing Page establishes just that.

You will want to create a number of Landing Pages for each specialty or market segment so that a customer or client can always "Land" according to their desired destination. If they want to land in New York, then they are landing on a page that is specific to New York, and has all the relevant information they need just for New York. You're the New York expert.

The Key word there is New York. It could have been any other word, product, or description - the thing to remember is that a Landing Page has static text so specific that it allows you to repeat these key words in context, resulting in higher search rankings, and also higher in the mind of your unique Internet visitor.

This is why a good Landing Page (with good static text) is so vital to Internet marketing.
