You can improve the conversion of your website!

What are you looking for with your website? You are probably thinking: "Gain credibility, so that people feel safe if they make a reservation at my hotel through a reservation channel"

And although yes, let's say that one of the main objectives is to make people trust us and the service we offer, our website must also be designed to convert a visitor into a client.

That is why today I want to tell you about CRO or Conversion Rate Optimization, which consists of a set of techniques that help to improve the conversion of a website. CRO involves making changes and improvements to your website by varying the user experience so that you are more guaranteed to convert your visitors into customers. But where to start? Here are 5 tips that will help you:

 1. Start with your analytics: Through Google Analytics or any other analytic tool where you can see where your traffic comes from, which are the most viewed pages, where they have converted or from where they have left your website without converting . You can focus your attention on those pages that meet these conditions:


  • Highest bounce rate
  • Higher output percentage
  • Less uptime


 2. Based your actions on evidence: Before making changes to your website, it is vital that you know the behavior of your visitors and their engagement to effectively choose the elements to change or test.

There are many tools such as click maps, mouse activity or scroll maps that show the route of visitors and where they spend the most time. With these tools you can identify if visitors are clicking on calls to action button, if they have missed some important element or if they have clicked somewhere with no link.

3. Carry out AB tests: Establish a hypothesis, and apply changes such as variations in the design, text or typography of the page you are evaluating in two different versions, measure the results, apply the variant that worked best in the test and go on to the following hypothesis in the most complex cases that require a more detailed analysis phase.

 4. Ask your visitors!: Talk to your audience to find out why you are not converting. A good way is to include a survey in the form of a pop-up on your page every time a person intends to leave your page, this will help you to know what you may be doing wrong.

5. Optimize the loading speed of your page: If you do not have a fast loading page, any effort you make to improve your conversion will not be reflected. Users quickly abandon pages that don't load in less than 5 seconds. In Google PageSpeed you can measure the speed of your page.

 

After analyzing your current website, establishing the objectives you want to achieve, defining the hypotheses, carrying out the tests and collecting the results obtained, you can progressively make the adjustments, gradually applying them to your website. 

Remember that websites must be dynamic, and adapt to the constant changes and evolution of the market. At Laably, all our plans include statistics reports that allow you to know how your website is working and detect opportunities, as well as unlimited changes that will allow you to test and explore changes that will lead you to have an efficient and high-converting page.

What is web hosting?

By Valen From Laably • 22 Mar, 2023
To explain what hosting is, I want you to think about your hotel, specifically the physical place where your hotel is located, as well as possibly you are paying rent for this physical space, which is necessary for your hotel to exist, hosting is that rent that you must pay so your website visitors can find you, basically if you do not pay the rent for your hotel you cannot operate, just as if you do not have a hosting, your website will not be visible on the Internet. A hosting is the space where the data that builds your website is stored, and that must be available quickly and efficiently every time a visitor wants to access the site, but the hosting not only serves to host your page, it also protects the data it contains, this safeguards the information on your site in case an error occurs. To measure the size of the space you need, think, for example, about the number of rooms your hotel has, the more guests you expect to visit you, the more rooms you need, the same happens with the hosting, the more visitors you receive on your website, the more storage capacity you require, and what is better than having the option to expand the space of your hotel as you expect to receive more guests, in the same way you can choose a type of hosting that expands as your visits to your website grow.

How to increase your sales with a squeeze page

By Valen From Laably • 15 Mar, 2023
We have talked about the importance of creating databases that allow you to carry out different marketing strategies to capture potential customers. Today I want to talk to you about a strategy that you can apply to your website, and that is the creation of a squeeze page, which is a type of landing page that is used exclusively to capture emails, in order to create a database that allows you to apply inbound marketing strategies to attract potential customers. What you should include in a squeeze page: 1. A call to action or CTA: Have a single button that clearly indicates the action that the user must take to get what they want. Like "I want the coupon" or "I want to subscribe". 2. Write an attractive text: The introductory text must be interesting and concise, it must offer a promise that is attractive enough for users to be willing to deliver their data. 3. Use images or colors that stand out: Use visual elements that stand out from the content of your page, this will make your page visitors stop at your squeeze page. 4. Implement A/B tests: Test your squeeze page to improve your conversions, vary elements to see what your audience likes the most. Example such as a pop-up:

What you need to know about a Call to Action

By Valen From Laably • 25 Jan, 2023
We have been talking about useful information that you can apply to your website for some time now, and several times we have mentioned the use of Call to Action (CTA). But I haven't told what this resource is about yet. So I am going to tell you what it is, how to use it and why it is important that you include it on your website. A CTA can be an image, text, or button that prompts your website visitors to take an action. The action you want users to take can be of any type, such as making a reservation, filling out a form, requesting information, or getting a coupon. You can use them permanently on your website or in a pop-up, placing them at the beginning, in the middle or at the end of the page, depending on when you think it is convenient for the visitor to perform the action, but be careful! It is not about adding a button that says "Click here", it is necessary that you accompany this element with a marketing strategy and that you take into account these fundamental elements that you cannot omit. 1. Use an eye-catching design: CTAs need to be noticed, we need to get users to look towards the call to action. The CTAs should be large enough to stand out and the colors should contrast with the rest of the page. It is recommended to use buttons that are approximately 200px width by 50px high.
