Show Notes
Who else wants lower bounce rates and higher conversion rates from visitors to their homepage?
We discuss:
- Should your homepage be a squeeze page?
- What in Turbo theme should be tweaked to improve the mobile experience?
- What content should go on the home page?
- Is HERO a must? Should the value prop be the hero image headline?
- Should your homepage be a branded experience or a long form sales page?
Plus Kurt develops an unnatural love for leather goods, and Paul lays out what niche he'd start a store in.
