5 Common Mistakes On Real Estate Landing Pages

Landing page: The first page a visitor is going to see on your website

 

1. Horrible navigation

The average user visits a website for 6-8 seconds before bouncing.

If you don’t have the most important links on your website visible right away, they’re going to leave.

Where do you want me to look? The picture draws my attention and then I get lost.

Map out a process that you want either buyers or sellers to take on your website and guide them.

  • Is it for first time buyer information?
  • Investor information?
  • Seller information?

Then put it on the main page of your website and make sure it’s easily accessible.

 

2. Outdated Design

It’s ranking well and definitely getting traffic. Probably getting leads too just because of it’s ranking in Google.

The problem is, it’s probably losing even more leads than it’s getting.

Where do you even want me to click? I’m not sure.

Present small valuable chunks of information that the visitor might be interested in. If they are interested, have a link to where they can read more.

Time is valuable and you must respect that.

 

5. No lead capture systems

If you’ve made it this far you probably have noticed a popup. You  might of closed it or you might of subscribed. The key is, it’s there and for you to make the choice. If you don’t have any way to capture leads that are coming to your site, you’re missing out on some serious potential.
