How to Create a Landing Page That Drives Results

Karl Kangur Leave a comment

Landing pages are one of the most important elements of digital marketing. They help you generate leads, gather all kinds of information about your customers, and refine your offers. Plus, they provide the kindling you need for all of your other marketing tactics (from social media marketing to blogger outreach).

However, having any kind of landing page is not enough. You want one that is designed well, one that stands out in the plethora of other landing pages competing for the attention of the same audience segment, and one that ultimately drives results.

Let’s take a brief detour before we jump into landing page design and focus on the “driving results” part first.

Migrate from Bootstrap 4 to version 5

admin Leave a comment

Bootstrap has been an essential tool for web developers over the years and has maintained a high standard. One of the most significant advantages of Bootstrap is that it is relatively easy to use and understand. The effectiveness of a thing, especially in this technological universe, does not mean that it is ultimate and perfect, and therefore immune to improvement. Everything can be improved upon, and that’s why despite the brilliance of Bootstrap 4, there is an upgraded Bootstrap 5, which has better code qualities. Some of these are; expanded color palette, CSS variables, faster and almost independent JavaScript (JS) integration, better API, and redesigned form controls and additional custom properties.

Another cherry on the top of this pile of news is that Vanilla JavaScript will be used from now onwards in place of jQuery as Bootstrap had stopped further support and approval of Internet Explorer 10 and 11. Apart from this, the only noticeable difference between Bootstrap 4 and 5 is that the logo had changed. The change is a little tweaking of the B in the logo. This article focuses on the new features of Bootstrap 5 and how to migrate from version 4 by paying special attention to the changes in the functionality. And an operational guideline of both the new and the old-keeping in mind is that the article deals solely with the available alpha version that might have changed upon the beta version release.

SEO Optimisation Takes Time, How to Check If It Gives Results

admin Leave a comment

How to check if SEO optimisation gives results? Unlike some other marketing strategies that are instant in terms of results – such as Google or Facebook campaigns – SEO optimisation takes time. And that’s time for the actions taken to show a better position on Google.

Sometimes it takes a couple of weeks, and sometimes it takes months depending on the search engine itself, the competition, and other factors. This leaves website owners in an awkward vacuum when they don’t know whether the money they’ve invested has been used wisely or not. But, while the real effects take time, that doesn’t mean we can’t check if the work entrusted to SEO experts is done properly (or if we did it the right way ourselves) and if the SEO optimization yields results.
