Bonus eBook: A Beginners Guide To Landing Pages, by Adi Purdila
“A Beginner’s Guide to Landing Pages” is a short eBook I wrote as a bonus for purchasing one of my landing pages on ThemeForest and its purpose is to help you get the most out of your new landing page.
Inside you’ll find information regarding the proper structure of a landing page, best practices, things to avoid and also lots and lots of examples. You’ll also get an insight into practices for better conversion and A/B testing.
The eBook is avaible in both .PDF and .IBOOKS formats.
12 built-in landing page templates
Ascension comes with 12 templates that are ready to go. All you have to do is choose the one you like and add your own images and text. You can find both lead-generation and transactional pages. See the demos for the complete list.
Multi-variant components
The majority of components have multiple variants. That’s because I understand the need to personalize each template to match your product’s unique style. Here is the full list of components that have variants:
- Buttons: 5 variants
- Cards: 3 variants
- Forms: 2 variants
- Icons: 3 variants
- Lists: 10 variants
- Sections and wrappers: 3 variants
- Separators and spacers: 9 variants
- Headings: 3 variants
- Media objects: 3 variants
- Hero area: 12 variants
- Call-to-action: 8 variants
- Product features: 9 variants
- Pricing tables: 3 variants
- Testimonials: 4 variants
- Page footer: 3 variants
Modular structure
Ascension is built with modularity in mind. You can mix and match various components for the perfect layout. It comes with tons of elements ranging from very simple (like buttons and video containers) to more complex (like tabs, media objects and pricing tables).
On top of this, the included developer files make it super easy to create new layouts by using partials.
Built with conversion in mind
The Ascension landing pages use best-practices for landing page design so that you’ll have a high conversion rate. This depends on you too of course, but I believe I’m giving your an excellent head-start by providing 12 templates to help you create your perfect landing page.
3 built-in color schemes and font pairs
Ascension comes with 3 built-in color schemes and 3 built-in font pairs and it’s super easy to switch between them. These are placed in their dedicated CSS files so it’s very easy to create your own color scheme or font pair by editing these CSS files. You can see these live in the demo pages by using the demo assistant in the left side of the page.
Developer files included
The package you’ll receive after purchasing Ascension contains two types of files:
- First, there are the distribution files that you can use right away. They consist of compiled CSS, JS and HTML that’s ready to go—all you have to do is edit the HTML files and add your own content.
- Secondly, there are the developer or source files. These contain a Gulp-powered workflow along with Sass, JS and Panini files. These allow code-savvy developers to quickly make changes to any part of the landing page templates. The Gulp workflow is custom made by me and it’s the same one I used when developing this template.
Responsive to the core
Ascension is a responsive landing page. It’s based on a custom made framework that’s powered by Flexbox. This leads to a clean and very easy to maintain codebase. Every aspect of the template has been tested and written so that it looks great on every device—from smartphones to large screens.
On top of this, any new element that you might add can be easily made responsive by using the built-in Sass mixins and utilities.
Extensive HTML documentation
The template comes with an extensive HTML documentation. It is part of the package you receive after purchase, but it’s also available online.
Supported item
I believe item support is incredibly important so I always do my best to offer it where it’s needed. Please use the item comments area for support requests.
High performance
All Ascension landing pages are built for high performance. I’m using two techniques that seriously increase page performance and decrease the page loading time: lazy-loading images and sprites. These help tremendously and because of them, the Google Chrome Audit tool consistently score the landing page between 90-100.
I kept the server requests to a minimum and off-loaded JavaScript files to fast CDN’s where possible. The users on mobile data plans will thank you for these performance improvements.
Mobile-friendly touch slider
Ascension uses a touch slider that’s mobile friendly and can accomodate any kind of content.
MailChimp compatible forms
The Ascension forms are compatible with the MailChimp email marketing platform. That means you can grab your MailChimp forms and paste them in an Ascension landing page and they will be styled accordingly. This process is described in the included documentation.
Highly customizable landing pages
Every part of the template is customizable—even more so if you’re using the included developer files. The CSS is neatly organized so you can easily find the components you’re looking for.
Registration page
Ascension includes a simple registration page that you can use to collect user information. It’s not linked to any back-end service, but you can easily use a MailChimp form inside it. See the demo pages.
Realistic demo pages
The demo pages are built around fictional products, but they feature realistic images and copy. I did that because I never liked lorem ipsum text and I wanted to show you the closest thing to a real landing page. I hope this will help you visualize how your product might look like when using the Ascension landing page.
