It's all about conversion -
Some best practices but it's not a matter of what is right or wrong - it is what works and what doesn't work.

What is a landing page - 
influence visitor to take a desired action

Sometimes there is so much effort at getting traffic, getting your email opened, getting visits to your site - we throw the landing page together just to get it done.  Seen it way to many times.

Background you have to work with:

a) Who the Landing Page Targets - Target Segments with Custom Pages 
b) your desired action
c) know the flow -where is the traffic coming from

Critical Elements 
1) Killer Headline
         - Have a clear offer (signup, purchase, free trial, etc)
2) Keep your content simple
         - [don't click this button] 
         - Eliminate options and clutter
         - consistent / believable   (car insurance quote - zip code! / Driving record)
3) Make it obvious what to do!   
         Car dealer web site -  Had a button that called to the visitor (push me! Push me!)
4) Custom / Compelling Call To Action above the fold (doesn't mean a button with "Submit")
5) Test / Measure / Refine / Test - Repeat, repeat, repeat 
         - (Split Testing)
         - Scientific Method - Hypothesis & Test

Bonus - Collect only what you need - if you need more / make it two steps.
         -  Start with your call to action and work backwards
         -  Look for some models or tools to make the mechanics easier (Optimize Press, Lead Pages, Unbounce, )


Here is the special offer for listeners:
1) First 5 responders - Landing Page One on One Review with me. - Value $300
