Landing Page Copy

Build high-converting landing pages with proven structure, persuasive sections, and best practices. From hero to footer—every element optimized.

When to Use This Skill

Writing landing pages from scratch
Improving existing underperforming pages
Creating templates for repeatable page types
Structuring lead gen, sales, or product pages
Reviewing pages for conversion optimization
Building landing page copy briefs for designers

Methodology Foundation

Source: Compiled from Unbounce research, CXL Institute studies, Copyhackers methodology, and direct response best practices.

Core Principle: A landing page has one job: get the visitor to take one action. Every element—headline, body, proof, CTA—must support that single conversion goal.

Why This Matters: Landing pages convert 5-15% on average. Top performers hit 25%+. The difference is almost always in the copy and structure, not the design.

Section 1: The Hero

## Hero Section (Above the Fold)

The hero must answer 3 questions in <5 seconds:
1. What is this?
2. Who is it for?
3. Why should I care?

### Hero Elements

**Headline** (most important element)
- Clear primary benefit or transformation
- Specific, not vague
- Matches the ad/email that brought them here
- 10 words or fewer ideal

**Subheadline**
- Expands on the headline
- Adds specificity or mechanism
- Addresses WHO it's for
- 20-30 words max

**CTA Button**
- Primary action
- Value-focused text
- High contrast, prominent

**Visual**
- Product shot OR outcome visualization
- Happy user (if using people)
- Should reinforce the headline

**Supporting Microcopy**
- Below CTA: "No credit card required"
- Trust badges if relevant
- Quick wins: "2-min setup"

### Hero Template

[HEADLINE: Primary benefit in 10 words or less]

[SUBHEADLINE: Explain how they get that benefit, for whom, or what makes it unique]

[CTA BUTTON: Action + Value]

[Microcopy: Address main anxiety]


### Hero Examples

**SaaS Example:**

Headline: "Finally, a CRM salespeople actually use" Subheadline: "Pipedrive automates busywork so you can focus on closing. Trusted by 100,000+ sales teams." CTA: "Start Free Trial" Microcopy: "No credit card • Setup in 5 minutes"


**Lead Gen Example:**

Headline: "The 7-Step Checklist That Tripled Our Email Opens" Subheadline: "Stop guessing. Use the exact framework that grew our list from 0 to 50K." CTA: "Get the Free Checklist" Microcopy: "Sent instantly • No spam, unsubscribe anytime"

Section 2: Problem/Pain

## Problem Section

**Purpose**: Show you understand their pain. Create resonance before presenting solution.

### Key Principles
- Use THEIR language (from research/reviews)

**Option C: Scenario**

Every Monday, the same thing happens. [Describe painful scenario in vivid detail] [Show the consequence] [Hint at the cost]


### Problem Section Template

[HEADER: Question or "Sound familiar?"]

[3-5 specific pain points using customer language]

[TRANSITION: "It doesn't have to be this way" or "There's a better way"]

Section 3: Solution

## Solution Section

Section 4: Features & Benefits

## Features/Benefits Section

### Key Principles

### The FAB Formula (For Each Feature)
**Feature** → **Advantage** → **Benefit**

### Format
