If you need to reach your lead generation goal for the month what do you do?
Your first answer should be to increase the number of landing pages you have. Companies with 30 to 40 landing pages get 7 times more leads than those with only 1 to 5 landing pages.
If you're landing pages aren't up to par and you aren't reaching your monthly lead goal, you might be wondering what's broken.
It could be because you aren't sending them to the landing page or you aren't providing them any value.
Don't be left out in the cold.
No one wants to miss the opportunity to increase his or her landing page conversions.
With a few quick fixes you will be generating leads in no time at all.

10. Optimize your Meta description. The higher you rank, the more chances you'll have of attracting prospects and getting them to convert.
11. Your call-to-action should direct visitors. Telling them what to do and what they will get. Remember to use action words like download, request and click here.

14. Does that image relate to your copy? If not, don't use it. It will distract your visitors and send them mixed signals. They won't fill out your form if they are confused about what need it will fulfill.
15. Not sure what headline, copy or call-to-action will attract visitors and produce more conversions? Don't be afraid to conduct an A/B test.
16. Include as little outbound links as possible. They will be your biggest threat, especially if you're sending visitors away from your website.
17. Use color and contrast to make your call-to-action pop off the page. Don't let it get lost. Color can also be used to create an emotional response.

23. If you wouldn't fill out the form, what makes you think your visitors will? Consider utilizing progressive profiling and smart forms.
24. Once you've created your thank you page, remember to include no index, no follow HTML.
