What Is A PPC Landing Page?
Paid advertising or pay-per-click (PPC) landing pages make up the pages where a user “lands” after clicking on a PPC advertisement. A PPC landing page aims to familiarize users with the promoted product/service and nudge them to convert. However, it can also be used for lead generation purposes.
A PPC landing page typically includes the following:
- A catchy headline with a supportive tagline
- A straightforward explanation of product/service benefits
- Social proof/trust badges (e.g., customer testimonials, secure payment badges, etc.)
- A crystal clear call-to-action (CTA)
- A short lead capture form
- Supportive visuals that evoke emotions or add more context
But there’s more to a successful landing page than that. So let’s go through some of the best practices that will help you get the most out of your PPC landing pages.
PPC Landing Page Best Practices To Follow
Keyword matching
Make sure the PPC landing page is relevant to the keywords you bid on. Otherwise, visitors may not be able to identify if the page is relevant to their search — and ultimately, end up bouncing.
It’s best practice to include the keyword the visitor searched for at least in the page title and ideally, throughout the page copy.
Message matching
Simply put, PPC message match happens when the message in a pay-per-click ad on Facebook, Google Ads, Instagram, or other platforms, is similar to the message on the linked landing page. It can be achieved by using similar phrases, colors, logos, copy, and offers.
A Moz case study shows that message matching can increase conversion by over 200%. Additionally, the ad cost per conversion can decrease by almost 70%!
A proper message match delivers exactly what it promises. If users click on an ad and enter a completely different landing page, they may feel confused and leave.
Message matching allows you to maintain the consistency and integrity of your PPC marketing campaign. Since visitors expect to familiarize themselves with the offer that corresponds to the promise you have put in the ad, message matching is essential.
For good PPC message matching, make sure that:
- Meta titles and descriptions include keywords in a campaign
- The headline in the first landing page section is related to a pitch from the ad
- The graphics within a PPC landing page correlate with banner visual elements
- The landing page and the PPC ad have the same CTA
Fulfill a single purpose
A landing page should fulfill a single goal — driving more conversions. Whether you aim to get visitors to purchase a product, sign-up for a newsletter, or download an e-book, your landing page should fully dedicate to fulfilling that objective.
If your page was to serve additional purposes beyond the main goal, like inviting visitors to check other products or read a blog post, users may get distracted and deviate from the conversion path.
That said, make sure your landing page doesn’t include any distractions that may deter visitors from converting. Consider avoiding navigation bars and buttons that lead to other pages.
Use minimal form fields
If you use landing pages to gather contact details, keep the number of form fields to a minimum. Less is more — the less time users spend completing a sign-up form, the more likely they are to convert.
In fact, removing one form field can boost conversions by up to 26%. Consequently, only ask users for the information you must have (e.g., first name, last name, and email address).
As a general rule of thumb, three to five form fields should be enough. This gets you all the visitor information you need, while users won’t be overwhelmed by a large number of fields.
Align headlines, offers, and CTAs
Lastly, make sure that your headline, offer, and CTA are in line. This leads visitors down a logical conversion path — their attention is grabbed by a catchy headline, the copy below it briefly explains the offer, and ends with a clear CTA.
You don’t want visitors to look aimlessly around your web page. Otherwise, they may miss critical elements like the supporting copy and CTA, causing them to click away.
Here’s an example:
Brand24 keeps these three elements perfectly in line. They are also placed in the center of the web page.
Consequently, Brand24 assures that visitors will see the headline, offer, and CTA right as they land on the page.
Meanwhile, the elements’ alignment coincides with the visitors’ natural reading patterns, leading them down a straight conversion path and ensuring that all the necessary information is read through.
Now that we’ve figured out what a PPC landing page is and what makes it effective, let’s go through some real-life examples.

15 Best PPC Landing Page Examples
1. Monday.com
Ad:
Landing page:
View Full Page: monday.com
Monday.com highlights the tool’s flexibility in both the ad description and landing page. The landing page headline, tagline, and CTA are in line and placed in the central part of the screen — just like in the Brand24 example shown above.
Additionally, the copy beneath the CTA gives visitors a further incentive to try the platform.
Also, there’s a smaller secondary CTA at the top-right corner of the screen. This serves as an alternative conversion opportunity.
Pressing the primary CTA, in this case, leads users to a separate webpage where they have to enter their email address, which may be too much too soon for some users.
However, pressing the secondary CTA triggers a small pop-up where users can type in their addresses — a less obtrusive process that may convince some users to signup.
You’ll see the same practice applied in most of the other examples below.
Moreover, notice how trust badges are visible right as users land on the page. These take the form of logos of large companies monday.com works with, adding more credibility and evoking professionalism.
2. KlientBoost
Ad:
