What is an SEO landing page?

Landing page SEO can be the best of both worlds, combining the power of search engine optimization with the effectiveness of targeted marketing. By optimizing landing pages for relevant keywords, you can increase visibility in search results while providing a focused experience designed to convert visitors into customers.

What is search engine optimization (SEO)?

Search engine optimization—or SEO—is the technique of improving a website so that it ranks higher in search engine results. This process includes using targeted keywords that potential visitors are likely to search for, creating informative and engaging content, and ensuring the website is well-structured and easy to navigate. The main goal of SEO is to increase organic traffic, meaning visitors who find the site naturally through search engines rather than through paid ads.

What is an SEO landing page?

An SEO landing page is a web page specifically designed to attract organic traffic by leveraging search engine optimization techniques. It targets specific keywords relevant to the audience's search intent, featuring engaging content that addresses their needs and encourages action. With clear calls to action, optimized design, and well-crafted meta tags, these pages enhance visibility in search engine results while providing a seamless user experience.

Why should you optimize your landing pages for SEO?  

Landing pages and marketing go hand in hand, but for a long time, marketers have considered landing pages as short-term or seasonal marketing tools that have no purpose after the particular campaign ends. SEO landing pages give marketers the opportunity to get the best of both worlds: relevant organic traffic from SEO and higher conversion rates with a solid landing page design.

SEO landing page vs PPC landing page 

Traditionally, landing pages have been used in pay-per-click (PPC) and email marketing campaigns to reach a target audience. But with search engine optimization, it is possible to attract relevant and organic web traffic to your landing pages without launching expensive campaigns.

Major differences between SEO landing pages and PPC landing pages include the method used to attract visitors, and which stage of the buying cycle those visitors have reached. When a landing page ranks for a particular keyword, it attracts a wide range of people from the awareness stage to the purchasing stage. But when landing pages are used in social media/PPC campaigns, they generally bring in users who are ready to make a conversion.

This is why PPC landing pages rely on a single CTA to create a distraction-free, conversion-focused experience for the user. You do not need to use keywords in PPC content.

On the contrary, SEO landing pages feature multiple internal links, backlinks, CTAs, and relevant keywords to rank for popular search keywords. Many businesses use SEO pages to inform users, improve brand recognition, and then direct the audience to their conversion-oriented PPC landing pages.

While SEO landing pages need to have a low bounce rate to rank higher on SERP, PPC landing pages can have higher bounce rates, as long as they also have a high conversion rate.

Optimize your seasonal landing pages

Marketers create multiple landing pages for every campaign. Once a seasonal campaign ends, the landing pages are removed. When the campaign has to be run again the next year, the landing pages are created from scratch. But if you create SEO landing pages with relevant keywords for your seasonal campaigns, they can be un-linked from the navigation when the campaign ends and reused every year.

The SEO potential of landing pages increases with time. If you look at any of the top-ranked pages in SERP, they are mostly old pages that are consistently updated to stay relevant. Old web pages gather quality backlinks over the course of time, which plays a role in their high rankings.

With search engine optimization, you can build high-converting landing pages that run on organic traffic instead of starting from scratch every time.

When to use SEO for landing pages? 

Not every landing page is meant to be optimized for search engines. SEO is a time-consuming process that may not be well suited to short-term campaigns where competition is intense and results have to be instant.

But SEO landing pages are well worth the time and effort under the right circumstances. They help reduce the marketing expenditure of long-term or periodical landing page campaigns and consistently bring in relevant, organic traffic.

Things to consider while creating SEO landing pages 

When creating effective SEO landing pages, there are several key factors to consider that can significantly enhance visibility and conversion rates. Start with thorough keyword research to identify relevant terms that your target audience is searching for. Use header tags to structure your content, making it easier for both users and search engines to navigate. A custom URL that includes your primary keyword can further improve SEO, while ensuring quality content that provides real value will engage visitors and encourage them to stay on the page.

Additionally, focus on mobile-friendliness to accommodate the growing number of mobile users, as a responsive design enhances user experience. Pay attention to Core Web Vitals, particularly page speed, since faster loading times can improve rankings. Craft compelling title and meta tags that draw clicks from search results and include internal links to guide users to related content on your site.

Lastly, consider implementing schema markup for better search visibility and using image alt tags to provide context for search engines. By integrating these elements, you can create SEO landing pages that not only attract organic traffic but also effectively convert visitors into customers.
