As the newly appointed Head of Marketing, you have been assigned the tough task for planning and
budgeting the online marketing spends for the next year. The target you have been given is to

Best practices while creating a landing page

• E.g. if you are emailing someone on where to find exotic tours for their next summer vacation, then the
page should also talk about exotic tours and packages
 CTA is to be above the fold
 Use arrows and other design elements to bring attention to the CTA
 1 page – 1 message – 1 purpose (do not mix)
 %conversion rate of landing page >>> %conversion rate of home page
