Landing Page Analysis Using OpenAI and Obtaining Optimization Advice

Landing pages are pages on the web that serve one purpose: getting a visitor to turn into an opportunity, buyer, or subscriber. Unlike regular website pages, they're clean and uncomplicated. A person visiting a landing page shouldn't get sidetracked by too many things on it, such as links to blogs, links to other website pages, or other things that take attention away from the main focus.

Why Review Landing Pages? A small increase in conversion rates could mean even just a .05% increase in the number of people who come to your website monthly (10,000 visitors) would mean an additional 50 leads coming into your business every month. For example, a typical selling price of a service is 30,000 rubles, so having the right title or positioning your form differently can result in an additional 1.5 million rubles in revenue!

A landing page in your marketing strategy is used to keep out non-targeted customers and give users the quickest way to take action; rather than using several clicks to navigate through a website, you can get them to take action with one click. The true value of landing pages to marketers is they give a way to track where leads generated from ads that Google's ad network send to your website are coming from. Without a regular review of landing pages, they quickly become a static "poster" on your web page where there are many visitors but no leads or new business; conversion rates drop due to the fact that customers change their needs and preferences, your competitors are constantly trying to take your customers away from you, and your technical problems (slow page load times, broken forms, etc.) will cause rapid declines in performance. An effective Landing Page has four main characteristics or "pillars," these pillars are; Clarity of Offer, Trust, Minimum Friction, Clear Call-to-Action.

Clarity of Offer: After reading the heading, a prospective customer's first reaction should be to agree to the offer after two seconds at the latest. For instance, "Innovative Business Solutions" does not give any indication about the type of Business Solution. In comparison "Automate Landing Page Analytics with AI for $29 a Month" would give someone a clearer picture of what is being offered.

Trust through Social Proof: Having visual case studies, reviews with pictures, performance numbers like "34% increase in leads over a quarter" and logos from reputable and well-known Companies. In the Crypto industry trust must be established by having some form of Social Proof otherwise no one will have faith in you. An example of this is our ASCN.AI case study on Falcon Finance where customers where able to make $1,000 by utilizing only two prompts and on-chain Analytics.

Minimum Friction: Having very lengthy forms requiring 15 fields filled out or requiring customers to create an account to see the pricing for a product is a sure way to lose potential customers. Ideally, you should have 1 screen, 1 form, and 1 button.

Clear Call-To-Action: The button on the Landing Page should be visually appealing, have some type of color or design to grab attention, and state what benefit they will receive. A button just stating "Submit Application" does not provide any incentive to click the button like "Get Your FREE Landing Page Audit in 10 Seconds." Typically, an excellent landing page describes users' challenges (e.g., "you are losing up to 60 % of leads due to slow load time") and presents options for resolving them, says the authors from Nielsen Norman Group, and supports their solutions using data (e.g. numbers) before driving users to take action. This easily explains why social proof is so effective—by increasing conversions by anywhere from 15 % to 25 %, says Nielsen Norman Group (2022).

How UX and SEO Affect A Landing Page

UX directly impacts the behaviour of users on an emotional level. According to Google, if a landing page takes longer than three seconds to load, more than half of mobile users will abandon the experience altogether. Google has continuously reiterated this message—each second of delay results in roughly a 7 % to 10 % increase in bounce rates. Google has stated time and time again that an additional second of delay in loading times will raise the bounce rate by 7 % to 10 %. There are several aspects of UX, such as using convenient forms with auto-fill options, buttons that are in high contrast, easy-to-read text (considerations include font size and line length), logical scrolling (important content must be placed above the fold), clearly defined short forms with validation, and mobile responsive designs.

Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) is important for both content pages and landing pages. SEO will dictate how your landing page is supported based on the keywords users are typing into search engines—this involves utilising all three important SEO elements: headlines, meta tags, and alt text for images. The key component of your website's content is the proper semantic structure (H1 tag, followed by H2 and so forth), the logical internal linking structure with case studies and instructional links, technical details (mobile-friendliness, HTTPS, Open Graph), and finally loading speed metrics as per Core Web Vitals.

Recently, we studied an extraordinary example of how quickly we respond to the data. You may recall the flash crash of October 11, where our speed of processing positive data helped us make significant profits. In the same way, the speed of landing page loading directly impacts visitor behavior and conversions.

How OpenAI Assists with Analyzing Landing Pages

The Capabilities of OpenAI Technology

In essence, OpenAI provides marketers with a very advanced level of support through the use of large language models trained on vast amounts of data. These models are now able to not only generate high-quality content (as has been common practice since 2005), but they can also analyze content, identify consistency, and track error frequencies across different dimensions of a landing page template.

When applying OpenAI to a landing page, the model will read the content, identify emotional tones and triggers within it, and perform an analysis of the HTML/CSS structures of the page as well. OpenAI evaluates the logical placement of blocks on a given landing page, analyzes how responsive they are to customer interactions, and compares these values to high-converting landing page templates.

The beauty of the OpenAI platform is its speed and objectivity. It takes just seconds for OpenAI to perform an analysis on a single landing page versus hours for a marketer to complete an equivalent analysis manually, and there is no degradation of quality while completing multiple analyses within a short period of time. How content is assessed: The search function determines the match of the content to the search terms, determines whether it contains specific information or is just fluff, and also determines the use of the emotional triggers (urgency, advantage, confidence) in your content. The search function also detects content that uses language and terminology that is too advanced for the average user or, conversely, too simplistic. For example, if a web page contains a headline in the H1 position, it should be at the top of the page (first item in the H1 position), and the other headings should follow in sequential order H2, H3, etc.

How to define the structure of your content: In relation to the proper placement of important elements on your webpage. When defining your information structure, do not hide your main point in a block that is lower in the page than the optimal display of the information structure. Your audience needs to understand what they need to do next, so it is essential to deliver the content in an order that takes them from the beginning of the problem(s) to the end and the next action you would like the audience to take.

Loading speed of the website: The AI does not measure the loading speed of your web page, but instead uses data from the webpage coding (source code) to perform its calculations. The AI counts the total number of scripts on your webpage, checks to see if images are optimized, checks the caching due to images and other resources on your webpage, and provides you with upgrade options.

User Experience Evaluation of the webpage: They evaluate the user experience based on the following: ease of use (i.e., easy to use large and obvious buttons, too many fields in the forms), the presence of auto-fill in forms, and certain things are annoying (video autoplay and pop-ups). Overall, the experience of the user visiting the site should be as seamless as possible.

How the Audit is Conducted: Stages of the audit process include but are not limited to preparation of the site; identification of the information you want to convey through the site; information structure and content (HTML), and the results of the audit.

Preparation: You give the URL or HTML of the landing page and let the auditor know what you want to accomplish with it (e.g., a lead generation inquiry, a subscription, etc.), so that the recommendations you receive will be more targeted and focused on what you are trying to accomplish.

Structural Analysis: The auditor scans the HTML of your webpage looking at H1, H2, H3, and other headings, as well as the Meta Tags on each page; will look for the image used as the focal point of the page; and will test the form.

Content Analysis: The auditor checks to make sure that the offer is easy to understand and that everything is clear. Additionally, they check for the presence of proof and the use of emotional triggers.

UX Audit: The auditor inspects buttons and forms, evaluates the scrolling experience, and evaluates the level of responsive design on the site.

Report: The auditor will provide you with an audit report that includes recommendations for improvement, including which errors to fix first and which errors can wait for later repair. All the tools mentioned above (OpenAI API (GPT-4 and similar), HTML parsers, Speed Services (PageSpeed Insights, Lighthouse), A/B testing) allow for everything to be done in seconds versus hours of manual work. It has also been published by the Nielsen Norman Guidelines that AI's ability to help with UX Analysis has significantly reduced the length of time it takes to perform this analysis while still ensuring the quality is maintained.

Recommendations for Optimizing Landing Pages

There are three main types of recommendations provided for optimizing landing pages; Technical, Content, UX generally all fall into one of these three types.

Technical recommendations include items such as compressing images into WebP format, implementing lazy loading, minifying CSS/JS files, configuring the browser cache, correcting broken links, and implementing Schema.org (as defined for Search Engines).

On the other hand, Content recommendations are to redesign headlines to incorporate numbers/benefits. Improve the first screen, incorporate social proof, fix fluff, and to have structured blocks of content.

UX Recommendations focus on increasing the size of buttons (at least 44px x 44px on touch devices), color contrast (WCAG standard of 4.5 to 1), shortening forms to just what is needed, micro-animations for buttons, and disabling Autoplay on videos.

Each recommendation will be thoroughly explained beyond merely "use larger buttons", "do lazy load", "structure your page better", etc. Each explanation will be provided using simple language that will explain the recommendation and why it is essential. For instance, a 32px x 24px button is often missed due to its small size and is not very effective for users; therefore, use 44px x 44px because it is the "Gold Standard". As per the Baymard Institute statistics, using a proper Call to Action (CTA) increases Click Through Rates by 30%. That is a good number!

Some examples of what not to do and how to improve your landing page

"Bad" Headline: Modern Business Solutions: It is dry and vague; thus, no benefit is shown.

"Good" Headline: Automate your Landing Page Analytics using AI and get your Analytics within 10 Seconds as well as a 15% Increase in Conversion Rate! Everything is therefore very clear and conveys value effectively.

A simple rule for writing a Headline is to use the following format: "Action + Product + Result + Time/Guarantees". Another example is, "AI agents answer inquiries, respond to client in 3 seconds and save 40. Of course." As such, it's imperative that your offer addresses "what?" "for whom?" and "why specifically this way?"; as in the previous case, "We help companies grow" does not answer the three questions asked of it. This offer, in contrast, addresses the question: "How can startups get started with automation of routine processes in 1 day and save 50,000 per month?" with some specifics.

Similarly, with respect to the CTA, using a gray "submit" does not do much to move prospects through to the next step of your process. A better example would be to offer "Free Audit in 10 seconds." Getting that information into people's minds right away is great for demonstrating value and ease.

The amount of friction involved in user experience is another important consideration for both product development and conversion rate. For example, if a form has more than five fields, your conversion rates drop approximately 20%-30% per field. Thus, a good design choice is to minimize the number of fields, or better still, to only create forms with two fields. According to the Baymard Institute, the simpler a form is, the better it performs.

Below, I have outlined two case studies that demonstrate successful optimization:

Case Study 1: SaaS Product: Before optimization, the conversion rate for this product was 1.2%. After working with OpenAI to identify the issues with the offer's headline (too vague because it read "Marketing Platform" rather than the specific "Email Campaign Automation with 300% ROI") and limiting the number of form fields from eight to two, the conversion rate increased to 2.8% three weeks after optimization.

Case Study 2: Crypto Project: The bounce rate was sky-high at 78%, with users leaving the site within five seconds. Users were turned off by the generic tagline (too many clichés) and the lack of social proof as well as the overly-technical and complex language used to convey information. By providing a revised first screen that included a successful case study block and a verification of security, we were able to increase the conversion rate substantially. In comparison with the original landing page, the bounce rate has decreased by 52% and the average time spent on the page has increased from 5 to 43 seconds.

Each detailed improvement to a landing page will result in about 0.2% to 0.5% additional conversion rates. Collectively, these small improvements can double your conversions. The key to success is to constantly test different concepts through A/B testing.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How Accurate Is AI Analysis?

ASCN tested its AI analysis using 1000 different landing page examples across multiple industries including e-commerce, SaaS, crypto, etc. In 85% of instances, Artificial Intelligence identifies the major causes of conversion challenges as a lack of transparency with offers, slow load speed, broken forms, and no call to action. The other 15% of instances contain errors that are specifically associated with a niche industry with strict guidelines or when landing pages are highly unique (e.g., utilizing storytelling in place of the traditional landing page format).

While AI provides some recommendations based on data, it does not provide solutions to conversion problems without the need for your judgment; the ultimate decision will always be yours. We do not consider recommendations made by ASCN as professional counsel, and we maintain a high standard of objectivity to minimize the human influence on an analysis.

What types of data do AIs utilize in order to generate recommendations for improvement?

1. Structure: HTML, CSS, JavaScript (JS) and images (i.e., alt tags, image size and image optimization).
2. Content: Headings, descriptions of products/services, call-to-action buttons, customer testimonials and disclaimers.
3. User Behaviour (if connected to Analytics): Bounce Rate, Time on Page, Heat Map, Traffic Sources and Conversion Rate by Source.

All analytical information is protected and is not shared with any external parties.

When Should I Review My Landing Page?

The least you should evaluate your landing page is quarterly—even when there have been no changes. Users are always changing their behaviour; your competitors are constantly improving and changing the way they do business, and search engines are continually modifying the information they display. The ideal time-frame for an evaluation of your landing page is once per month with active traffic. This will allow you to determine when you are experiencing traffic decreases. Additionally, it is extremely important to evaluate your landing page after the implementation of paid ads, redesigns, seasonal promotions and receipt of user feedback. You may create an Automated Audit with E-mail notifications.

Can An AI Replace A Marketer?

Absolutely not. AI allows for a much faster evaluation of the routine—the structure of the site, typical errors made and the evaluation of data. However, AI does not have the ability to engage in strategic thinking, to have creative ideas or be able to understand an audience. An optimal solution to the above scenario would be if an AI generated 20 unique tips, a Marketer chose the five most appropriate to implement, and then tested and adjusted marketing strategies based on real-time results. A true example of this concept was the analysis of Falcon Finance token; the AI was able to highlight insights from the analysis, but the trader would make the ultimate decision on whether to trade based on risk.
