Call to Action (CTA)
A Call to Action is a marketing term for any design to prompt an immediate response or encourage an immediate sale. It's typically a button or link that tells users what action to take next.
Effective CTAs often:
- Use action verbs (e.g., "Buy Now," "Sign Up," "Learn More")
- Create a sense of urgency (e.g., "Limited Time Offer")
- Stand out visually from the rest of the content
- Are placed strategically on the page
Best practices:
- Make CTAs clear and concise
- Ensure they're relevant to the content
- Test different versions to optimize performance (A/B testing)
