asked for features that encourage action; and were right to start by naming the single action the page should drive and benchmarking competitors. A practical rule: design the landing page for one clear conversion goal, state the benefit in the headline, and make the call-to-action (CTA) visually dominant while removing distracting navigation or links. (unbounce.com)

Core features to implement:

  • Single, benefit-first headline + short supporting subhead.
  • Hero image or demo that illustrates the outcome (not just pretty stock photos).
  • One primary CTA above the fold; repeat it logically on long pages.
  • Scannable copy: bullets, bolded lead words, informative headings (people scan in F- and layer-cake patterns).
  • Authentic social proof: logos, short testimonials, specific numbers or case facts.
  • Minimal form fields (ask only what is needed for the conversion stage).
  • Fast, mobile-first experience (work toward good Core Web Vitals).
  • Basic SEO: unique title/meta description, canonical tags, and structured data where appropriate.
  • Tracking and test hooks: analytics, conversion pixels, and A/B testing ready. (nngroup.com)

Quick QA and launch checklist: run PageSpeed Insights and fix LCP/CLS/INP issues; validate structured data with Google’s Rich Results Test; confirm the page matches ad/email messaging; set a clear primary KPI and run structured A/B tests with one variable at a time; document privacy/consent for lead capture. Regular iteration from measured tests will beat guesswork. (developers.google.com)

Minor cautions: avoid multiple unrelated CTAs, long mandatory forms, and slow multimedia. The combination of focused messaging, trust signals, performance, and measurement is what reliably nudges visitors to act.

Just like your web site, your question has me ask what actions would you like them to take?

Some sites like Facebook want you to join.
Amazon has stuff for you to buy.
WebMd has information about your condition.
Wikipedia has information about well, everything.

Each one takes a different approach to offer the visitor choices on their next action but without you telling more my answer is to look at sites that offer what you offer for ideas. Who do you envy?

I agree with rproffitt, you need to first think what it is that your business/website offer to people and base all your research on those criteria.

Search for the top 10 sites related to your industry and see what they are doing. Decide if this will fit into your profile and then start planning your site. Another idea is to then search for certain criteria and see who lands in the top 5 of your searches. Then look at what they do and follow suit.

commented: I can't recall it but there was a name for this idea (envy) where you look at your competitors for clues about your site/product/services. +15
