Best Landing Page Themes & Builders for Wordpress Reviewed and Compared

Best Landing Page Themes & Builders for Wordpress Reviewed and Compared | Internet Marketing Strategy 2.0 | Scoop.it
Which WordPress marketing theme is really the best? Check out this massive roundup review, comparing OptimizePress 2.0 to all its alternatives, to find out!
Robin Good's insight:



If you are looking for a landing page builder app, theme, plugin or software, I can't recommend enough this comprehensive guide by Shane Melaugh, to some of the best landing page Wordpress themes and landing page "generators" out there.


Nine different tools are closely reviewed and their pros and cons clearly identified. 


Finally a comparison table and a written set of recommendations from the author provide a clear-cut view of which tools can provide the best and most cost-effective solution.


My comment: Excellent, professional reviews and objective analysis make this a truly useful guide for identifying a good landing page builder. Although several other lesser-known but quite effective landing page builders are missing from this guide (Unbounce, Leadpages, KickOffLabs, PageWiz, Lander, InstaPage among others) the information provided in this guide is priceless and can litreally save you lots of hours of research. 


Good review, analysis and comparison. 8/10

Optimize Press or not?

The basic top table allude to OP, but don't make your mind until you read the whole post. A joy to go through

Kate Rieger's curator insight, September 11, 2013 9:59 AM

Excellent round-up of review of several different landing page builders. Haven't used Optimize Press, but not inclinded as I don't need a confusing or complicated backend.  I'll stick with Instabuilder.

Excel for SEO: The Full Illustrated Guide

Excel for SEO: The Full Illustrated Guide | Internet Marketing Strategy 2.0 | Scoop.it

From the original article: "Many SEOs are now finding themselves faced with the task of doing fairly complex data analysis to improve their search strategies, and Excel adequacy is not quite enough.


...


With this document I intend to share some of the most valuable aspects of Microsoft Excel for the SEO. It is far from an exhaustive look at everything that can be done with Excel, but hopefully a strong foundation for the SEO’s toolkit.


...


So if pivot tables, IF statements, absolute references and nested functions make you scratch your head, read on..."

Title Tags: Everything You Need to Know About Using Them Effectively

Title Tags: Everything You Need to Know About Using Them Effectively | Internet Marketing Strategy 2.0 | Scoop.it

From the original article: "Title tags are the nuclear warheads of content marketing: While they contain only a very small mass — roughly 65 characters — they pack an unbelievable punch.

 

Because of title tags’ enormous impact on SEO, social sharing and conversion, content marketers should know how they work, and how to put them to work

 

Theoretically, title tags can be of any length. However, length and composition are greatly influenced by the fact that Google displays only the first 65 characters or so in search engine results.

 

a) Remember that each title tag on a website or blog should be unique, and completely relevant to the content of the page.

 

b) Besides appearing in search engine results, title tags are displayed in many other high-visibility locations, including in browser tabs and social media shares.

 

c) Title tags are the most important onsite ingredients for SEO because they explain to Google and other search engines what each page is about.

 

d) Explain well and your pages will enjoy higher rankings; explain poorly and Google won’t know how to match up your page to search queries."
