How to Use Copywriting to Boost Landing Page Performance

The words you write on your landing page are the very first thing people see, along with catchy visuals. The first thing that usually stands out is the headline and subheadline. Therefore, you should put a lot of focus here.

The first thing you want to do when it comes to copywriting is take inventory of the landing page elements that you'll need to fill up with words and content.

When it comes to copywriting, always choose clarity over being clever. Of course, you can be funny, but always be clear regarding your offer. Headline and subheadline should reinforce each other with their copy. However, avoid repeating the same words.

Copy makes a great tool to use when defining the benefits of your offer for your customers. Always start with a benefit-driven copy from the top of the page (headline and subheadline) and continue using copy and defining benefits throughout the page.
