Landing pages for Ads (what differs from SEO)
Targeting, speed, structure for paid traffic.
Paid traffic doesn't forgive — it needs speed and clarity
A landing page for Google Ads cannot behave like an SEO page.
SEO = exploration.
Ads = fast decision.
1) An Ads landing page must lock into the exact intent
It should match the query or ad message word-for-word.
Practically:
- headline aligned with the ad copy
- immediate clarity on who you are / what you offer
- minimal distractions
"Anything that doesn't push the lead forward pulls it back."
2) Paid landing ≠ long-form explanation
You need:
- 1 clear value proposition
- 3–5 benefit bullets
- 1 strong trust element
- a clear CTA above the fold
3) Speed matters even more for paid traffic
Requirements:
- compressed images
- minimal scripts
- fast server
- instant-loading above-the-fold section
4) The CTA must signal action
Good:
- "Request a quote"
- "Talk to a specialist"
- "Book a call"
- "Learn more"
- "Read about us"
5) Social proof that builds trust instantly
Paid users need quick proof:
- short reviews
- mini case study
- a credibility indicator
Bottom Line:
Ads landing = speed + clarity + intent + action.
It's not an SEO page — it's a fast persuasion page.
The clearer the path, the lower your CPA.
