What are Landing pages

[jonsen]

Landing page is the web page where website visitors arrive at after clicking on a link. It could be our home page, or any other web page in our Web Site. It could be a content page on a website to which traffic is directed, either through paid search or email marketing

A landing page is a web page where people are directed to or "land" once they click on an online advertisement or search listing.

Landing pages are designed to be highly relevant to the advertisement or search listing and encourage users to complete a "call to action" - namely===> BUY MY PRODUCT!

Crappy landing pages are not hard to make. Good and effective landing pages are difficult to create and can be somewhat more of an art form than a science - until you get the hang of combining the ingredients at the correct,,, ahh shall we say, measurements

A landing page is just that, the fist page a visitor lands on which can be any page on your site. How he got there isn't important. (To the concept of a landing page, it's very important if you want to understand your visitors.)

And what SHOULD be there isn't some marketing, but the content the visitor is looking for.

So true.

A landing page is a web page that appears when a visitor clicks on a PPC ad or a search engine result link. The home page of a website is not the only landing page; every page in a website has a purpose and is a potential search engine landing page.The best use of a landing page is not what it is, but what it can do. Your landing pages should provide a customized sales pitch for the visitor.

You are all right thus far. Sometimes when you have a blog farm they are refereed to as the page that the entire farm points to ultimately. This is the meaning I tend to agree with.
