An e-commerce landing page checklist before paid traffic

Match the ad to one clear offer

Place the advertised product or offer near the top of the page. Use the same currency, package and qualification in the ad and the destination. If the ad promotes a trial, show what happens after the trial and the relevant commitment next to the offer.

A useful exercise is to ask a colleague to read only the ad and the first screen. They should be able to explain what is sold, who it is for, the starting cost and the next step. Rewrite any part they must guess.

Make the price understandable before the action

Check whether shipping, subscriptions, required deposits or other mandatory components change the amount required to start. Give important terms visible space near the price rather than relying on a long footer.

For an account service, a $1 subscription promotion and a separate required advertising deposit answer different questions. For a physical product, the same principle applies to delivery charges or a recurring refill. The page should let the customer understand the payment arrangement before contacting you or checking out.

Test the page on a real phone

Open the exact destination URL used in the ad. Check readable text, visible buttons, tap targets, image loading and the navigation back to the page. Complete the contact or checkout flow using an appropriate test method, without placing a real order accidentally.

Google’s destination requirements call for functional, useful, navigable pages that are accessible in targeted locations and crawlable by its advertising crawler. Treat mobile testing and accessibility checks as part of launch preparation, not as an afterthought.

• No broken product links or empty sections.
• Primary action visible without an obstructing banner.
• Price and currency legible on small screens.
• Working country, language and shipping selections.
• A clear confirmation after a submitted form or completed test action.

Check claims and product evidence

For every measurable claim, identify the evidence you have. Remove invented customer counts, unsupported performance guarantees and product images that misrepresent what is supplied. Keep descriptions specific enough to help the customer decide.

Health, financial and gambling-related products need their own eligibility review. A polished landing page does not override product restrictions. If evidence or authorization is missing, resolve that issue before sending paid traffic.

Measure the next step, then the actual sale

Track the intended action: a submitted form, an order or a contact click. Keep it separate from a completed sale. A Telegram click shows that someone tried to open a conversation; it does not prove a message was sent, a lead qualified or payment received.

Record the landing page and campaign reference with the lead when possible and permitted, then record the outcome after the conversation. For an initial review, inspect the funnel in order: impressions, clicks, page visits, contact actions, qualified conversations and sales. This helps distinguish a traffic shortage from a page or sales-process problem.

Keep account supply and media buying distinct
