What are video landing pages?

Edited

Basically, a landing page is a web page with a video in it. A video landing page can also have a heading, description, and a call to action.

Here's an example of a video landing page:

Video landing pages support the idea of video funnels, helping you to create video content for each step of the customer journey.

Just a few ideas on how you can leverage video landing pages for your business:

  • Use the landing page as a business card. Share your business details in the video and add a short description.

  • Welcome new users. Create a welcome video message and send the link to the landing page during the onboarding process.

  • Send a video via email. Since email providers don't usually allow embedding a video in the email, you can email your users a link to the original video. They can then watch it on the video landing page.

  • Share a special offer deal. Create different versions of the same video and send a link to different customer segments.
