Spot On
We went to Belfast for Tennets Vitail and since Helga House was close by it seemed the prefect place. it was very quaint but clean and comfortible. the slice of ham at Breakfast was a bit weird but everything else was ok. i would go back, i felt relaxed and in good suroundings. not to bad at all, plenty of hot water and the sheets and towels where nice and fresh.
Stayed at the Helga Lodge, (unfortunately) room tiny, decor awful, ensuite shower room so small you could not dry yourself without doing yourself an injury. Every thing including breakfast cheap and basic, do yourself a favour do not stay here. �25 per person per night is way, way to expensive.
Avoid Helga Lodge
I stayed in Helga Lodge for 2 nights with a group of friends. I think we all had the same complaints about it. My room was freezing cold when I got there, luckily there was a small heater in the room. The common areas were unheated which in february made them freezing. The decor in the room was really dated with clashing patterns and colours. The ensuite resembled a wardrobe with a toilet and shower. There was no hot water on the firts morning, and no shampoo or shower gel. The towels smelled of cigarette smoke which was quite unpleasant. Some of our group who were supposed to have ensuites had just a shower cubicle in their room which if you were sharing with friends would be rather awkward. The breakfast was awful - like the other reviews I was amazed to find ham instead of bacon. Luckily the toast was edible. I would not recommend staying there to anyone. �50 seems like a complete rip-off when you see this place.
Awful. Avoid
Under no circumstances stay in the Helga Lodge. The place is awful, run down and unpleasant. Our room was cold, damp and PINK (walls, carpet, ceiling, sheets, sink, toilet, soap, curtains, all pink) Inside of shower was covered with lino which was black and rotten at the bottom and not a place to expose your bare skin!
Breakfast was awful (slices of wafer thin ham instead of bacon - what's that about??)
Believe me, I can tell you more, but that should be sufficient to deter you.
Dissatisfied with Helga Lodge
Date 2-11-05
My boyfriend and I spent a night in Helga Lodge over the weekend. Firstly, the directions to the B & B were useless so we rang the B&B to get some help at 4pm on the evening that we were to arrive. Unfortunately, the recepionist was rude and unhelpful. We spent almost two hours trying to find it and when we arrived at 6pm we were informed by the same rude receptionist that we were late and that he had given our room to another person. This was despite the fact that our tardiness was partly due to his useless directions. After being extremely rude to us he decided that he would give us a family room and abbruptly poointed out that breakfast was between the hours of 7.30 and 9 "PRECISELY". The room was damp, drafty and cold. There was no toilet paper or basic wash products like soap in the room. There was a heater in the room but when it did eventually heat up it ony succeeded in making the room stuffy and uncomfortable.
Unfortunately for us we got up early for the breakfast. It was terrible we got no cereal and the "Full" breakfast was extremely disappointing. For example the "bacon" consisted of a wafer thin slice of cold ham. Not your typical Full Irish. I could go on but suffice it to say that we wont be staying there again.
We went up for the Xfactor auditions and found the staff great, the room was like something out of the 60's all pink and all..but we loved it. There was a tv, sink, loads of storage space, and we found the tray very danty. It was clean and affordable at �30 a nite for a double room and on a Saturday nite also it was cheap and cheerful. The breakfast was small but nice.
Awful hotel
We booked into this hotel because one of the houses used to be my family home, so it was to be a nostalgia experience. From this point of view it was successful since the present conditions are very much like the cold, grime and general discomfort of a 1950s/1960s Belfast childhood. Do not even think of going to this awful hotel, it is absolutely the worst I have ever stayed at. The cost of �50 for a very cold (electric bar heater on the wall) , horribly decorated and grimy twin room was not cheap, particularly since we were not brave enough to attempt the breakfast. The common areas were awful too. The receptionist was very pleasant, but that was not enough. This place badly needs a re-fit .
We made a reservation by telephone on 23 July 2005 for a double room for 6 August 2005. We at the time told the hotel management that we would be arriving late in the evening of Aug. 6 as we were taking the late afternoon ferry from Stranraer in Scotland. We were assured that this was not a problem but, just to be sure that all would be fine, we sent an email from Scotland in the morning of the 6th to inform the hotel management that we would be arriving at around 10 PM.
At our arrival at the hotel (at 10 PM) we were informed that there was no room for us. When we mentioned the July phone call and that morning's email, we were told extremely rudely that we were late and that there was no room left for us. The Manager told us that there was no record of us making a reservation by phone previously and that he was not reading emails. As he was perusing his reservation book we actually did see that our name and reservation was listed, something he then tried to dismiss by saying that, in any case, he did not have a credit card number to guarantee the room (something that we had offered to give him while on the phone back in July).
All the while we were systematically insulted: called liars, arrogant (for presuming that hotel management had nothing better to do than to read emails) and other assorted invectives. There was no real effort made at helping us find alternative accommodation or any other kind of satisfactory arrangements. Our plight (my wife, pregnant, was very tired by that time) was obviously the least of his concerns. Ultimately we ended up in the street, left to fend for ourselves in an unknown city in the middle of the night with fully-booked hotels everywhere.
I had stayed at the Helga some years ago and enjoyed a very comfortable stay in a pleasant part of the city, just a short walk from the centre. But under new ownership standards have plummeted to rock-bottom. Having booked by e-mail and confirmed by phone some weeks before, we found that our rooms had been let to others. After some half an hour standing in the lobby whilst the rather embarrassed receptionist tried to persuade my friend and I to share a room, we were asked to speak to the owner by phone. He accused me of not confirming the booking but eventually "discovered" that there were two singles available after all. We were shown to our rather scruffy rooms and directed to the shared toilet and shower facilities. The toilet seat was boken and the beds had clearly been slept in, so a quick exit was made to find more acceptable accommodation. We ended up paying �70 at the nearby Madison's Hotel instead of the anticipated �25 each, but the extra cost was worthwhile! It's generally true that you get what you pay for!
Reasonable, but needs to do better...
Helga was not a first option but they had space for a single traveller. I stayed 2 nights here in a twin ensuite for �37 pn, as doubles would be �50. A cooked breakfast is included- i recommend opting for scrambled not fried eggs, but hey, find out for yourself!
The staff are friendly and helpful, but that doesn't detract from the old, 70's slap-dash mis-matched decor, the brown tint on everything from carpet to wall paper and general vision of a time warp. It can feel claustrophobic for this reason, and not somewhere to spend much time in. BUT- for shared acommodation on a budget (25 for singles wiv wash basin), in a great location, for a short trip, it isn't bad. there aren't any single rooms with ensuite tho.
So if there's no availability at any of the BBs nearby (tara lodge is one), then this would do. You can't miss the green and cream bold face next door to the local Indian restaurant:-) 2.5/5

Decorative moulded plaster coving with a paper face for easy painting
£1.26 per M
Decorative moulded plaster coving with a paper face for easy painting
"This is a quality product but there is a knack to easy installation. Other reviewers have said it's a messy and difficult job but it need not be. First, I would recommend that you paint the coving with your chosen emulsion before installing it, particularly if the coving is to be a different colour than the wall or you have an Artex ceiling. If you paint later, you will find masking tape doesn?t seal on Artex so paint creeps under it onto the ceiling. Some coving has one edge labelled on the back as the ceiling edge and it is important to check this each time you cut a piece. If you need to make a butt joint in a long run a 45 deg cut is easier to align than 90 deg. Hold a small offcut of coving in position against the ceiling and make a pencil mark on the wall against the bottom edge then knock in a panel pin a little way on the mark. Do this about every metre. Check the fit of each piece before glueing. Apply a bead of adhesive (tubes are so much cleaner to use) about 1cm from each edge then place the coving onto the pins and press into place. Wipe away any excess adhesive. When it's dry pull out the pins, fill gaps and touch in paint with a small artist?s brush. You can also take the opportunity to hide cables behind the coving to supply wall lights etc."
"supplied in 3 mtr lengths if installing by one person suggest cut into 1500mm lengths easier to fit use cove adhesive made up to a fairly thick consistency clean up as you go this is not a job to be taken on lightly. BUT the end results are worth the effort. fill gaps in joints and between cove and ceiling/wall with the adhesive as you go do not do it later use a damp/wet sponge to clean up with clean water leave whole to dry out thoughout 48 hours ideal before decorating"
"Never again!! Found myself with a few days off..... do the coving......easy I thought. Have used polystyrene so often....quick easy,little mess , no problem for one person and with care gives a proffesional apperance. It now seems in very short supply anywhere! This is messy , except for short pieces,....very awkward for one person and would need a course to give a good apperance. Bought enough for 3 rooms, now dont know what to do with it and the expensive adhesive. Dont buy this if you dont know what you are doing and dont have help!!! Sure it would be at least OK then!"
"Our decorator used this for our hall/stairs/landing. It's 3m in length, and so heavy and awkward to place. He manged it on his own but I think if attempting this yourself, get another pair of hands to help with the long runs. Looks great when its up!"

Local musicians to play Dec. 8 Christmas concert for charity
Online Staff Report
Jim Waddell and members of local Christian rock band Epiphany will join Saturday, Dec. 8, for their 17th annual Christmas concert.
The free concert begins at 3 p.m. at Grace United Methodist Church, 3555 McFarland Road, Rockford.
Waddell, Epiphany and their children will perform contemporary and traditional versions of several Christmas favorites, both sacred and secular. Special guests include Stephanie Waddell as well as the children of the musicians, who will lead the singing of Christmas carols.
A freewill donation will be taken with all proceeds going to Youth Services Network.
"Christmas has always been a special time for me — a time for family, and a time for sharing and giving back — and that is really what this concert is all about," said Jim Waddell. "It provides a vehicle to spend time with 'family' — our friends from Epiphany and their families — and to do something we truly enjoy while benefiting the local community.
"People should come to share in a spirit of fellowship, to enjoy just a couple hours in celebration of the season," he added. "We have a lot of fun putting on this concert, and the people who come have fun being a part of it. It is great for families, and a nice respite in the middle of the Advent season."
Beyond the fun, however, the concert serves an important purpose: raising money for charity. Recent recipients have included MAPS of Illinois, Gigi's Playhouse and Maya's House.
"As we tried to decide on a beneficiary for this year's concert, we talked about what was important to us," Jim Waddell said. "In general, we felt strongly about helping children in our area. We talked about several options, but in the end, decided this year to benefit Youth Services Network."
Since 1982, Youth Services Network has provided its unique services to the youth and their families in Winnebago and Boone counties. Their staff provides trauma-informed, holistic and community-based services for their clients. They serve clients from birth to age 21 and provide supportive services for their families.
Difficulties and challenges their clients face include sexual abuse; physical, emotional and/or domestic abuse; various trauma experiences; mental health disorders; social and/or emotional problems; runaway or homeless; teen pregnancy; delinquency; and truancy.
More information is available online at http://www.ysnkids.com.
Waddell, who has organized his annual Christmas concert since 1995, was honored in 2009 as one of the Rockford Area Chamber of Commerce's "40 Leaders Under 40." Epiphany, winner of the last four Rockford Area Music Industry (RAMI) Awards for contemporary Christian music, was honored this spring with the RAMI for 2011 Song of the Year.
For more information, contact Waddell at email@example.com.

Each episode began with the song "One Bad Apple."
The show also had a laugh track.
The series ran through September 1, 1974.
Silhouetting is used when the Osmonds perform songs, which end with applause. Rankin/Bass utilized computer imagery for the silhouettes of the Osmonds dancing. "I think this was one of the first times any type of computer was used in an animated project," according to storyboard artist Don Duga.

to make this i used a piece of wood, vinyl for the lettering and black, and white paint,
first i painted the wood white. then using the silhouette machine i cut out the london under ground names, and transfered it over to the bit of wood like the picture below, some of the letters tore but i tried to fix them back together.
then i painted the whole thing black, i scraped the paint to make it appear worn.
then once the paint is dry peel the letters off so that the white paint is revealed.
and its done, im thinking about rubbing the edges down with sand paper to age it a bit more.

iTunes Music Store coming to Denmark
"When Apple unveils the Danish version of its successful online music shop, iTunes, this October, the company will already be bracing for stiff competition from IT giant Microsoft. Just a few days before the grand opening of iTunes, Microsoft will debut its own music download site, MSN Music.
Music industry insiders have long been aware that Microsoft was planning a rival online service, but Microsoft has kept the specifics tightly under wraps."

Apple is at the mercy of the people who own the rights to the music, which vary from country to country.
I'm sure Canada, which should be a bigger market than Denmark, would have been a higher priority.

I'm in Canada, I want an iTunes store too, but I have the feeling that many people are tired to see us whining about it.
Yet since we are at it.
There are copyright laws in Canada that could be applied to downloading of pirated music material. One court ruling implied that only uploading or serving pirated music would be illegal but many analysts are saying that this could be easily broken by any real court case that would include the labels as plaintiffs. The labels here seem to have adopted a soft approach to p2p downloading, unlike the RIAA.
Anyway even if it was legal, it wouldn't make it right. How about asking your favorite artist if it's ok not to pay for his/her music?
As for myself I'm not for any kind of represive approach, but when I can I try to make my friends realise the importance and the simple logic of respecting the artists they love by paying for their art.

Honestly, a CD is a better deal. I live in Canada, and I listen to the 30s previews in iTMS, but then off to the store or WinMX I go… and usually spend $12-13 CDN on an entire album…
The quality I am not too worried about (128k - 160k is probably good enough for me), but what irks me is the silly DRM that forces me to either keep a computer built in 2008 running Windows Longhorn. You need a machine to house your music collection for the rest of my life, because you can't copy the songs to more than 5 computers… without a lot of work.

The Danes can even use hymn legally. Denmark isn't some fucked up country where it's illegal to decrypt files you OWN (yes, according to Steve Jobs you own the files bought from iTMS).

Through active participation in our classes, and through engaging in the performance opportunities we offer, students hone their art, and their craft, here in The Norris Ely Orchard Theater. We get to witness student actors, dancers, designers, managers, and technicians make discoveries every day that reveal new facets of their individuality." — Candice Chirgotis, Head of Theater & Dance Department

Whether you are new to the performing arts, or an advanced performer looking to hone your skills alongside talented and experienced professionals, you will discover new talents through our extensive curricular and extracurricular offerings.
From performance to production, from stage management to technical theater, and from ballet to hip hop, there are so many options.

Loomis Chaffee's Norris Ely Orchard Theater stage has been transformed into a magical and metaphysical world in a spirited interpretation of William Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, this year's selection for the fall theater production.
William Shakespeare's comedic masterpiece, A Midsummer Night's Dream, is being staged by Loomis Chaffee students in the Norris Ely Orchard Theater next week.

JInstaller: :Instalación: No se puede encontrar el archivo de configuración XML

You can upload template to the server by using FTP. (filezilla-project.org)

if i want registrer i can´t , if i watn admin the site i can,t.. i don´t now if a make bad. Thanks again.
As I said this is just a html template… To integrate this template to a dating website you should know html, css, php etc… if you don't have knowledge about these you should look at Wordpress or Joomla category…
I have a problem. My web site is www.tvujflirt.cz. Sometimes page load without problems but sometimes stuck at 81%. I need work web site not only sometimes work web site. Please help me.
You should have made a mistake during customization. You can remove loading animation with deleting queryloader2 script…
now is removed
Original item (without customization) is working fine right? So if it isn't working now you should have some mistakes in somewhere during customization. I see custom css and html codes here but I can't test them…
First of all remove the following code from the bottom of the page…;

Reklamu na tomto hostingu zajiš?uje Business Factory - internetová reklama a pokro?ilý internetový marketing.

I recommend you to start from scratch and customize your page step by step…
that is advertisement of free hosting
Ho can I delete that loading?
Openup index.html file. Find the following code;

and delete class like the following;

After that delete the following code;

Hi, just bought ur theme. great job! please how do I change the background of the vertical text in the second page – need to change it from red to blue. thanks
Openup style.css file and find the following code;
.info { background-image: url('../images/red-bg.png'); background-repeat: repeat; position: absolute; width: 60px; left: 960px; padding: 15px 0px 0px 0px; height: 100%; text-align: center; }
You can change the background image or add a color instead of image here like the following;
.info { background-color: blue; position: absolute; ... }
Thanks. sending you an email with my customization
there's need to optmize. apart from server side optimization (which we should do) the template may be faster if js/css is minified. pls can u make minified version? thanks
Submit button does not work out of the box. Added method="post" and action="action/url" to the form tag.
It appears to be something in your massively custom jquery source file. Please advise.
Hi, open custom.js file and find the following code;
/* for the demo we disabled the submit buttons if you submit the form, you need to check the which form was submited, and give the class active to the form you want to show */ $form_wrapper.find('input[type="submit"]') .click(function (e) { e.preventDefault(); }); });
awww. lol. Ive been sitting here sifting through un necessary files. Thanks for your quick response. Love the layout by the way.
You're welcome
Hello, I'm teacher 2 days per week at a primary school and we want a website where parents can log in to and see all pictures from the kids on school. All we want is just a login page, then some albums and when you click on an album you get a list of photo's. Will we be able to do this with this Theme?
Sorry but no, this is a simple html landing page template. If you don't have html,php etc. knowledge, you can't do anything with this template. You should look at Wordpress category.
You can also hire a web developer to make a custom theme; http://www.microlancer.com/explore/web-development
I would like to know of you provide the PSD files?
There isn't any PSD file because it is built with pure css3
Demo images are not included in download like most of the other templates…
I think you are new at Themeforest right? If you look at the item description page, you can see what you'll get… Html,js and css files..
Also you can see the information about demo images;
"Demo images are not included in download"
You are buying a html template, not images or psd files…Some authors put psd files in html template downloads but as I said I don't use Photoshop, it is built with pure css3 so there isn't any PSD file.
Is it clear enough now?
Hi, I would like to add a drop-down select to the registration form but the css / style for the drop-down select are not showing up like the input type=text items. How can I apply the same style to the <select> items? I put the select between tags like the <input type=text> field.
You should edit style.css file and add your custom css codes for your new element… There isn't any select box in the design so I didn't add stylings for the select box…
It should be something like that;
select { padding: 5px; }
If you don't have enough css,html knowledge, you can hire a web developer for these kinds of customizations..

Lua Scripting Support Being Added To NetBSD Kernel
Published on 14 February 2013 09:24 AM EST
Written by
Michael Larabel
18 Comments
Support for the Lua scripting language is being added to the NetBSD kernel so that it's possible to interact with the BSD kernel's various subsystems using this popular scripting language. With a Lua interpreter being added to the kernel, it's even possible to extend the kernel's subsystems in this scripting language.
Support for NetBSD kernel scripting using Lua has been an ongoing project that dates back to 2010 with the "Lunatik" project originating from
that year's Google Summer of Code
. The original work involved porting a Lua scripting language interpreter into the NetBSD kernel, a kernel programming interface that supports extending kernel subsystems in Lua, and a interface exposed to user-space for loading Lua scripts inside the kernel. This will certainly spark mixed views on a scripting language for the kernel, aside from security concerns.
From the 2010 work there's a few more details within
the SourceForge Luakern
project, but is since outdated. Earlier
this month at FOSDEM 2013
, Marc Balmer talked about Lua for the NetBSD kernel.
The "Lua in the kernel" project fell into
an unmaintained state
in 2012, but is being revived and will actually be merged. For those not familiar with the Lua programming language, it's a scripting language that's extensible, written in ISO C, and has a fairly straightforward C API. Lua has found itself widely adopted from being used within the VLC Media Player to video games as the scripting language to the Apache HTTP server. Now support is heading into the NetBSD kernel for Lua.
Marc Balmer is a long-time *BSD developer and is the founder of the Swiss-based
Micro Systems
. His slides about his FOSDEM 2013 presentation of Lua going into the kernel can now be found on
while embedded below are some of the most interesting points.
Among the expressed ideas for users with Lua in the NetBSD kernel is that "modifying software written in C is hard for users", with this scripting language there's the power for users to better modify and extend their systems, and users can explore the system in an easy way.
For developers, Lua allows for rapid application development approach to driver and kernel developer, modifying the system behavior in real-time, and configuration of kernel sub-systems through the scripts.
Rather than Lua, other language possibilities were Python and Java. Python is not difficult to integrate with C but has problems with being a huge library, memory consumption, and difficult object mapping. Java is easy to write but also poses problems with object mapping and memory might be an issue, but it's worked out before for driver development.
The 2010 GSoC project proved that the Lua virtual machine can run in the NetBSD kernel and the necessary infrastructure was added to the kernel. Support for Lua in the NetBSD kernel is soon to be merged to NetBSD "-current" and it
should be part of NetBSD 7
. Within the NetBSD user-land has already been Lua scripting support.
When running Lua code in the kernel it ends up being all in one address space and is accessible to all the same memory, but there are locking issues.
A look at how Lua integrates into the NetBSD kernel.
Fortunately, some security features for Lua code in the NetBSD kernel are being worked through.
It will be interesting to see if Lua scripting in the NetBSD kernel ends up being used much or if it is a feature just used as a toy and research. The release of NetBSD 7.0 is likely still more than one year away, but we'll keep monitoring the space of Lua scripting in the NetBSD kernel.

Several Windows editions were awarded the Common Criteria EAL 4 certification..... "Common Criteria"...? You have most likely heard of the US TCSEC (Trusted Computer System Evaluation Criteria) or the European ITSEC evaluation criteria.
However the "Common Criteria", based on ISO 15408, are the 1st truly international approach to evaluating vendor security products. EAL is the abbreviation for "Evaluation Assurance Level" and each EAL level describes a certain set of assurance requirements witrh regard to security functionality. See the links below for details about this standard
Keep in mind, this certification is about security features, you still need to implement those features correctly no matter wether it's EAL 4, EAL 3 or whatever...
So which Windows versions were awarded?
- Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition (32-bit version) with Service Pack 1 - Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Enterprise Edition (32-bit and 64-bit versions) with Service Pack 1 - Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Datacenter Edition (32-bit and 64-bit versions) with Service Pack 1 - Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Certificate Server, Certificate Issuing and Management Components (CIMC) (Security Level 3 Protection Profile, Version 1.0) - Microsoft Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 2 - Microsoft Windows XP Embedded with Service Pack 2

Let me setup my idea and then I would love anyones feedback to help improve this. I plan on building a semi-portable device that will house my march pump, shirron plate chiller and a container that will hold my pre-chiller w/ water & ice. I would like to use a submersible pump that will recirculate the water thru the pre-chiller into the shirron plate chiller and then back into the container. My pre-chiller is 3/8" and the pump and plate chiller are 1/2" I believe. So the question I have is how many GPH should the submersible pump be rated at? This is one of the pumps I'm considering $27.99 from HF Any ideas on the container size that will hold the pre-chiller/water/ice? Thanks in advance! Oh and here is a picture I found online that will kinda show what i am going for. Just imagine a container that would house the pump/pre-chiller/water/ice attached to this stand.
Found the answer!

I went for lunch today--the food is fabulous. We sat on the patio and the ground is slanted and table sloped by an inch. My back hurt from leaning forward to reach my food. the sliver plates and utensils kept slipping all over the metal top table. It was so difficult just to sit and eat. They need to fix that. The whole self serve water area is gone. That's such a bummer with the slow service. I haven't tried the new wine bar. It looks fun. Now I am wishing I'd gone there tonight rather than Vida, which closed at ten but they got very pushy by 9:30. This is not town for staying out late, unfortunately.

Re: Kioti Warranty problem
Ditto RE: Connie was useless.
Manufacturers make the rules. If I understand correctly, you bought the tractor from a NON Kioti dealer, therefore it's NOT covered by Kioti's warranty. It seems you are able to register the tractor as you being the current owner. Beyond that, unfortunately, I doubt they will choose to honor warranty related claims UNLESS they choose to, on a case by case basis. Maybe you'll be able to convince them to fix just your steering and squeal noises and then call it a day. FWIW, something is better than nothing, IMHO.Last edited by Coyote machine; 03-21-2013 at 11:06 PM.

The relationship between your e-mail and your landing page.
Regular readers should be familiar with my simple segmentation model that relies on observed behavior. Any marketer tracking basic e-mail metrics can use this model to better target content and, hopefully, improve performance.
It's not that this model is better than others that segment by interest, industry, or another differentiator. It's that this model relies on information that should be available from even the most basic e-mail marketing program. Here's an overview:
Today, we'll talk about engaging Group 4: those who open and click on your e-mail but don't convert. If you're selling directly via e-mail, a conversion is defined as a purchase. If you're looking to generate leads, it might be defined as a person providing contact information via an online form. These are the most common types of conversions.
If readers open your e-mail with images blocked, then no open will be triggered. But if they click on a link, we know they viewed the e-mail, whether or not that was captured by your tracking system.
What we know about people who click: they saw something in the e-mail that was of interest to them. But when they don't convert, then something on the landing page was a disconnect. It kept them from completing the task at hand. To increase conversions here, your focus should be on:
One common landing page mistake is including links that, while related to the topic at hand, don't set the reader on a path to conversion. For example, it may be appropriate to reference the results of a third-party study in an e-mail to generate leads. But if you include a link to that company's home page, you risk readers becoming engaged with their site -- and forgetting about you and your e-mail.
To avoid this mistake, review every link in your e-mail to be sure that the landing page isn't just relevant, but that it also includes a way for readers to advance themselves toward the conversion.
Another common mistake is being overly enthusiastic about including links. Just because you can link to something on the Web site doesn't mean that you should.
Years ago, I worked with a company that had lots of links in their e-mail messages. They linked to the bios of their team members; they linked to the history of their company; and they linked to a page where you could see a picture of the building that housed their offices. These links were all well and good, but they weren't really relevant to getting people to purchase their product.
Again, review the links in your e-mail and remove any that don't directly guide readers on a path to conversion.
Next, it's time to optimize the remaining pages. Testing is the best way to optimize. Consider your current page the control, and make changes to a test version.
Do an A/B split, where half your respondents go to one page and half to the other, and see which converts at a higher rate. If you're doing a pure landing page test, then the e-mail and other elements of the control and test campaigns need to be exactly the same.
A recent study found that landing page tests returned an average performance lift of 40 percent and that much greater increases weren't unusual. Developing a good landing page test takes a lot of research into landing page optimization and a good bit of thought, but often the cost of developing the test version is minimal. Little things like copy changes, revisions to page layout, and design tweaks can provide great returns.
There are entire books written on optimizing Web pages, but here are a few general principles I follow when I do this type of work:
The most important thing to do when you're optimizing a landing page is to put yourself in visitors' shoes. Think about what got them to the landing page in the first place and what information they will need to move forward with a conversion. Remember, they don't know your company or products as well as you do; factor that into your evaluation.
Take some time this week to size up your landing pages and see what changes you can make to increase conversions. In my next column, we'll talk about group five, your tried-and-true readers who open, click, and convert -- and how you can leverage this segment of your list to increase your ROI (define).
Until next time,
