Getting clicks, but no enquiries? Start with the page.

Follow the promise from the advert

Read the advert first, then open the page without scrolling. Can you immediately find the service it described? A visitor who clicked an advert for garden-room design shouldn’t have to decode a general homepage to discover whether the business can help.

There’s often a perfectly reasonable explanation for the mismatch. The homepage was written to introduce the whole company, while the advert was written around one particular need. A focused landing page gives that need enough space.

Answer the question the visitor arrived with

A useful opening tells someone what the service is, who it suits and how to take the next step. The details depend on the offer. A bespoke architect may need to explain the first conversation, while a defined design package can show a clear starting price.

Avoid squeezing every service into the same opening. If the visitor has come to discuss a kitchen extension, the company’s stationery work is unlikely to help them decide. Keep the first screen on the reason they clicked.

Show work that helps someone decide

Choose examples close enough to the visitor’s situation that they can picture the result. A portfolio image needs enough context to explain the job it represents. For digital work, a recognisable screen can make an interface much easier to understand.

A short, genuine client comment can help too. Keep the wording accurate and give it a named source where you have permission. Don’t bury the strongest evidence beneath several screens of general claims.

Walk through the enquiry on a phone

Open the page on the device your customers are likely to use. Follow the main button and complete the form with test details in a safe test environment. Check the keyboard, field labels, error messages and confirmation screen.

The form should collect what the business needs for a useful reply. Asking for a full project plan too early can make a simple enquiry feel like homework. Explain what happens after submission so the person knows what they’re agreeing to.

Check the whole chain before buying more traffic

An irrelevant advert, unclear page or broken form can each waste an otherwise useful visit. A tracking problem can also make a working enquiry path look unsuccessful. Check that the measurement and the actual enquiries agree before deciding that the page needs a redesign.

At Pointed, we can build a landing page around the service, the examples and the enquiry you want to receive. The scope is agreed before work starts, including any connected forms or campaign tools. Bring the advert and the destination page together when you ask us to review the brief.
