      Landing pages are used for conversions. If you don’t have what to sell, what will be the use of a landing page? Also, how can I get products or services that will necessitate the use of landing pages on my page? Thanks

      • Teej says:

        @Olumide, landing pages can be used for whatever you want them to be used for. They are typically used to collect e-mail addresses and product sales.

        You can use it to lead your visitor to whatever you want or need them to do.

        As for your second question, if you read about this site more, you’ll see that they have product(s) for what you are asking about. :-)

    Would you say landing pages with duplicate content still work?

    I have a freelance client who wants to target 50+ areas, I`m in the process of creating landing pages for each of these areas, the problem is creating unique content of all of these landing pages and the time vs costs.

    I`ve noted on similar websites in the clients field are using duplicate / spun content and their landing pages still rank.

    What you be your advice?

    • Teej says:

      If your client uses PPC or social marketing, then duplicate content doesn’t really matter.

      If your client uses SEO, then you’ll need to link to those pages from other pages (and from other websites) as well. Or find another way to lead to those pages.

    Great recipe Oli. In the last example given, when you say personalized message, was the intro actually “Hi blog reader”… Or was it Hi ?

    Thanks.
