5 Ways to Improve Your Conversions

Posted on 09/08/10 No Comments

Number One: Get rid of all the ‘Reset’ or ‘Clear Form’ buttons on your site. If they’re there, strip them off.

Number Two: Change the wording of your buttons. Copywriting tests on buttons always improve conversion rates. In particular, if you’ve got a button with the word ‘Submit’ on it, improve the copy.

Number Three: Size—make your buttons bigger. I’ve seen buttons up to five inches wide that did better than buttons that were four inches wide. Can you make your button bigger?

Number Four: Color. Doesn’t matter what color your button is as long as it stands out from the other elements on the page.

Number Five: Position. Your button should be above the fold of the webpage. If
it’s below the fold, if people have to scroll to see it, it’s no good. Move it up.
