Article No :719 | August 23, 2011 | by Chuck Longanecker
Much of UX for the Web focuses on the experiences users have while they're interacting with a website or web application. But that focus neglects a key part of the user experience: the first impression visitors have when they initially discover a product or company. Whether it's through a Facebook ad, banner ad, or landing page, these first impressions either help bring in new customers or they can result in lost revenue and wasted advertising dollars.
Unfortunately, the design of banners and landing pages for customer acquisition is typically neglected, with much of the time and effort instead going toward the optimization of the ad distribution, not the creative. This practice hurts conversions. Time and time again, it's been shown that better design of banners and landing pages can make or break campaigns. It is imperative that design professionals insist that thoughtful design be applied to the elements of the customer acquisition flow.
First Impressions Matter
We all know that the vast majority of display ads go unclicked and unnoticed. ComScore reports that only 16% of display ads ever get clicked on, and the term "banner blindness" was coined more than a decade ago. The main culprit? Lousy design. Good design is obviously better than bad design, but we don't really know how much it can help improve the performance of our campaigns. This inability to quantify the value of design leads to big ad spends that allocate very little for design, which is a big mistake.
Let's look at a sample campaign to see how this plays out:
Scenario 1
You spend $10,000 on ad placements for a new product, and only $250 for the design of your banners and a landing page. Your product sells for $100 per unit. Your banners get a 0.2% click-through rate (CTR) and your landing page converts visitors to new customers at a rate of 0.4%.
- Ad Spend: $10,000
Creative: $250
Impressions: 3,333,333
Conversion rate: 0.4%
Purchases: 27
Revenue: $2,700
Net profit: ($7,550)
Scenario 2
Same as above, but this time we're going to actually invest in design with compelling banners and thoughtful landing pages that drive purchases. Let's see what happens:
- Ad Spend: $10,000
Creative: $1,000
Impressions: 3,333,333
Conversion rate: 1%
Purchases: 133
Revenue: $13,300
Net profit: $2,300
As you can see, having design that works can swing the campaign from a major loser to a winning, profitable campaign. All for $750 extra dollars, and some thoughtful design work upfront. That's a huge win for the business that invested in design upfront, and a painful lesson for the business that decided to skimp. But enough with the hypothetical; let's look at a real-world example.
Digital Telepathy worked with ReTargeter to overhaul their banner creative. Although ReTargeter had diligently optimized their banners, they were only seeing incremental gains. We brought a new design and approach to the visuals and messaging that focused on creating a powerful first impression, and tested it against existing creative.
The results? The new design outperformed the old, driving three times higher click-throughs.
Here's how we nailed that first impression and drove conversion:
- Grab their attention. Use visually striking yet clear design that stands out on the page.
- Show them your vibe. Whether the brand is meant to convey a sense of fun or of security, communicate it instantly through the creative.
- Be intriguing and inviting. Don't try to sell everything in the ad unit. Tease the solution to make a click seems "worth it" for the viewer who wants to learn more.
From Banner to Landing Page
Once you get the coveted click, you have to deliver with the landing page. The design must be clear, consistent and intuitive in order to turn those clicks into conversions. Companies such as Unbounce have made it easy for anyone to set up landing pages based on best practices. But it's up to you to bring them to life. Instead of stopping with the design of the ad unit, it's time to think of the ad unit and landing page as symbiotic entities, where each one relies on the other for success.
Here's how to get the most out of your landing page:
- Deliver on the promise of the ad. It's like a song with a call and response—the ad promises, the landing page delivers.
- Give them what they want—almost. Give them almost everything they hoped for from the banner, with the last irresistible bit driving the conversion.
- Provide a second option. If some visitors don't want to take the plunge on your primary conversion, give them a way to take a secondary conversion (like joining a mailing list) that lets you market to them in the future.
- Test and learn. We continually evolve as we learn what works and doesn't.
Calls-to-Action That Really Drive, uh… Action
The landing page is the moment of truth: will the visitor convert or bounce? It's your job to make the conversion as easy as possible with clear calls-to-action. Copy, creative and, yes, interface elements (e.g., buttons) all play a role in the call-to-action. Think holistically about how you highlight the conversion point for better results.
Here's how to optimize your calls-to-action to really dial in conversions:
- Keep it simple. There should be no doubt about what the visitor should do.
- Make it as painless as possible. Don't ask for too much information. Focus on getting the conversion; you can get the rest of the details later.
- Offer a consolation prize. If they're not ready to buy, give them a way to sign up for a newsletter, a promotion, or some other mechanism that allows you to continue to market to them.
- Be cohesive. Remember to make sure that the design of the conversion pages, email communications and remarketing materials share the same design style and speak to the user based on their experience with your brand.
Good First Impressions Are Designed
It's clear that marketers need to invest more of their budgets into design. Our job as designers to ensure that message is heard loud and clear. In fact, we believe so strongly in design-driven results that we've launched a new product to make beautifully designed ad units and landing pages easy and affordable. Check out Impress.
As a UX agency, we're passionate about spreading great design across the Web. Lets rally as a community to demand that design be a priority. Show your marketing team how good creative can impact a campaign. And impress upon them that thoughtful creative that gets results is well worth the upfront investment. As they say, you only get one shot at your first impression, it's imperative you make it one that matters.

He teaches creative writing at Carnegie Mellon University.
In Amsterdam my friend Dr. Zero
put the Dutch equivalent of a quarter
into a machine to watch some fat hairy
zombie fuck a pig. A real pig. The screen
was tiny, but not tiny enough, for he invited me
to take a peek, and, given my only chance to watch
a man fuck a pig, I took it. I liked Holland
because we could also call it The Netherlands
and call the people Dutch so we had a lot of options
while smoking legal marijuana in a club
that warned us not to shoot up in the bathroom.
Everybody draws the line somewhere. Perhaps
you drew it a few lines back, and I'm whispering
my sins to a dusty screen and I won't be getting
any penance for my trouble. Dr. Zero was sufficiently
disgusted and chose not to watch the one
with the donkey. Not that I hadn't put a few guilders in—
that's it, guilders! What a great name for money.
And they have the best dimes in the world.
Smaller than ours. It's great to come upon one
in the deep lining of a coat, walking home
from the hash bar knowing you're not broke—
yes, I'd used up all my change at the arcade
watching variations on a theme. Twenty-five years ago.
We didn't get tattoos like we'd threatened to,
and it's a good thing, seeing as how trendy they are
now. The past is like a bad back—not subtle enough
to haunt anyone. Ten years ago a doctor told The Doctor
he might have AIDS and Dr. Zero obsessed
about that prostitute in Amsterdam he spent five
minutes with, even though she'd unrolled
a condom on him. It turned out he had
chronic fatigue syndrome. Every story
is a long story. We didn't shoot up. We didn't
fuck any animals. We told each other the truth
most of the time. I haven't seen him
in sixteen years. The world is a bad joke.
Sometimes we laugh because we think
we're supposed to. When I showed him
the Dutch dime, he took it and swallowed it
so I'd really be broke. I forgave him.
I made a wish.
When was this poem composed? How did it start?
I don't know exactly when it was composed. It was originally published in 2005, so probably sometime in the previous year. It started with a memory of my friend Dr. O when we were in Amsterdam together. He's a larger than life character, but I found that while I'd often told stories about him, I'd rarely found a way to work those stories into poems.
How many revisions did this poem undergo? How much time elapsed between the first and final drafts?
This one came pretty naturally, so I'd guess less than ten drafts. I work on a lot of poems simultaneously, so it's not one continuous process with each poem. It's hard to tell with most poems how long they actually took because I pick up these folders of poems I'm working on and try to move various poems forward depending on which I'm drawn to (and ready to return to) at a particular moment. It's a messy process in a way, but it frees me from the pressure on any individual poem. At some point in the process, if I'm lucky, the poem moves into the "done" folder and I begin to send it out.
Do you believe in inspiration? How much of this poem was "received" and how much was the result of sweat and tears?
Well, there weren't any tears with this poem, but a fair amount of sweat. I don't believe in the Muse coming down and touching you. I feel like I have to wake up the Muse and put her to work—so I guess I believe in a qualified inspiration—inspiration that emerges from hard work.
How did this poem arrive at its final form? Did you consciously employ any principles of technique?
I wanted it to use lots of enjambment and have it look a little ragged. I wanted to create this wandering around feel, a casualness to the voice and narrative—I come out and address the reader, for example. Too much overt control would make that more mannered I think.
How long after you finished this poem did it first appear in print?
Given the nature of the poem, I had to choose carefully where I sent it. Slipstream, a fine journal, was a good fit because of their lack of qualms about printing work that deals frankly with explicit subject matter, and because of my history with the editors. I felt like I would get a good read there, and it would be a good fit. Fortunately, the editors agreed.
How long do you let a poem "sit" before you send it off into the world? Do you have any rules about this or does your practice vary with every poem?
I think I kind of answered this earlier. I'm not sure how long I let them sit. Usually, I pull a lot of things together at the end of the summer to send out. I have no rules. I tend to have a lot of poems circulating though, so I don't feel any pressure to rush the new ones out there. Definitely time for my initial enthusiasm to die down before I send it out.
Could you talk about fact and fiction and how this poem negotiates the two?
You know, given the length of time, and our state of mind in Amsterdam, I'm not sure I myself could even distinguish between fact and fiction. He probably did not swallow the tiny dime. I wanted to write a kind of wholesome poem about friendship while dealing with unwholesome subject matter, if that makes any sense.
Is this a narrative poem?
Do you remember who you were reading when you wrote this poem? Any influences you'd care to disclose?
I don't remember. I often am reading things totally disconnected from what I'm writing. Reading calms me down enough to get to the place poetry comes from, but I rarely find another writer's style or subject matter creeping into my writing while I'm reading that writer.
Do you have any particular audience in mind when you write, an ideal reader?
Not really. I'll take any audience I can get. With this poem, it's pretty graphic—which is why I just went and called it "Explicit"—so I suppose an adult audience for that one poem.
Did you let anyone see drafts of this poem before you finished it? Is there an individual or a group of individuals with whom you regularly share work?
Sure. I've got some old poet friends I've known since I was an undergrad who still read my work sometimes, and they're great critics, since they've known me and my writing for so long. My wife, the writer Kristin Kovacic, reads more of my work than anyone. She is a very tough, excellent critic, and I owe a lot to her for all the help she's given me over the years.
How does this poem differ from other poems of yours?
Well, it's more explicit. And it's set outside the U.S. Most of my poems are set in American cities. The style, to me at least, seems pretty representative of my poetry.
What is American about this poem?
I don't know. Maybe the bumbling Americans enjoying the legalized debauchery of Amsterdam makes it "American."
Was this poem finished or abandoned?
Both. I assume it's finished at the time, though often change things, even after they're published, if given an opportunity to take another look at them.
["Explicit" appears in Revolt of the Crash-Test Dummies, Eastern Washington University Press, 2007.]

JBS DSG Tuning
Custom-Code DSG Performance Upgrade Software
Custom-Code has been working with JBS the team on our 3.2 24v V6 test car for over 2 years, developing and refining the Phase 1 and Phase 2 DSG performance upgrade software to complement the Custom-Code performance engine software and JBS' Forced Induction program, optimising the launch control, shift and torque limiter functions to give the ultimate driving experience.
Custom-Code DSG Phase 1 software can be run on a standard car and complements our full Custom-Code Phase 1 ECU software.
Custom-Code DSG Phase 2 software is aimed at drivers who demand the most from their cars. With the Phase 2 DSG software aimed at cars with more significant hardware modifications; Performance exhausts, supercharger and turbo upgrades and delivers an exhilarating experience when combined with our Phase 2 or 3 ECU software, with fully custom settings for launch control, torque settings and enhanced shift points to suit your vehicle set up.
DSG Software Upgrade Specification:
Torque Limit Increase:
The keys to Custom-Codes success in tuning the DSG software comes from the command of the clutch pressures.
We have increased the DSG Gearbox's ability to transmit torque from 350 Nm up to 550 Nm while still ensuring the stability and capability of all the mechanical moving hardware within the DSG gearbox. (Torque Limit adjustable to your spec with Phase 2)
With more pressure on tap to clamp down the clutches, the additional torque applied through high horsepower applications won't strain your clutch packs.
Increased Shift Response:
The shift response has been increased by up to 20% giving a smoother transition, leading to a decrease in unnecessary clutch slippage under full load accelerations, which reduces clutch wear.
With increased shift time you also get an improved paddle-reaction-time by up to 40% in S-mode.
Increased Red Line:
Increasing the shift points gives you the command of your engine's power in the upper RPM range, we have raised the DSG transmission's rev limit to 7000 rpm in S-mode and 6800 in D-mode, as this optimizes the engine's performance range and maintains the safe operating range of the V6's valve springs. (Both adjustable to your spec with Phase 2).
Automatic Shifting:
With Custom-Code's performance programming, we have put the driver back in complete control.
In M-mode, automatic up-shifting at wide open throttle has been deactivated, as has kick-down, allowing you to bounce of the newly redefined rev limiter and maintain your gear at will.
When you opt to take over with the paddles in S mode, only at Wide Open Throttle will the software automatically shift at the newly defined red line. Up to 95% load, you will have the benefit of the removed up-shifting and kick-down to take control over your gear changes.
In D mode, the factory up-shift and kick-down settings are maintained.
Launch Control:
With Custom-Code's Stage 1 DSG Software, launch control is activated on any vehicle) that did not come equipped with factory launch control.
A perfect launch is accompanied with a great 0-60 acceleration is one of the best ways to show off your performance mods. Furthermore, improving on the uneventful factory launch, we elevate the launch RPM to 4200rpm in Manual mode and 3800rpm in S-mode (Both adjustable to your spec with Phase 2); giving you a powerful and controlled launch while maintaining a safe pressure applied to the factory clutches, to provide maximum grip without slip.
In-dash Gear Display
When in D or S mode, the active gear is now displayed in the instrument cluster to the right of the PNRDS icons where it wasn't previously (R32 etc)

Coraid and CommVault team up, grab biz barons' backup from HP, Sepaton
We'll do the front end, you take the back end
Comment At IP EXPO, Coraid and CommVault were flaunting their love after partnering up on a new venture to provide scaleable data management and protection solutions for enterprise folk.
Coraid said CommVault was a great door-opener, and said that together they were capable of taking on players like Sepaton and HP for the Simpana back-end storage array role.
Coraid is a startup selling SRX EtherDrive storage arrays accessed via the ASoE protocol, an open block storage access standard that only Coraid uses (think AoE SAN arrays). We're told it's light-weight in protocol overhead terms, fast and simple – in that you don't need Fibre Channel to have enterprise-class SAN facilities.
EMEA VP Pete Godden explained that Coraid is partnering with CommVault, supplying back-end storage to CommVault's enterprise-standard Simpana front-end backup and archiving software.
"Interesting," we said, "Sepaton has just announced the biggest bad-ass deduping backup array, VirtuoSO. How does a Coraid-CommVault combo match up to that, with its 126TB/hour ingest rate?"

Godden said Coraid could match that with CommVault. Take one SRX array with a 3TB/hour ingest rate and add another 41 to it to reach 126TB/hour. CommVault does the dedupe with the SRX just storing the data, like the HDS HUS or VSP arrays behind Sepaton's deduping heads.
A basic 3-node Sepaton config costs $344,000 or so. And a 3-node Coraid/CommVault set up? The standard Coraid configuration with CommVault is priced at $50,000 for 96TB usable (128TB raw) storage. Customers can start with one appliance and scale out as their needs grow; that comes to $390/TB.
Godden dropped an interesting titbit into the conversation; Coraid has replaced HP at UK customer Xentrall, a UK public sector partnership between Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council and Darlington Borough Council.
Again, it was a CommVault-led deal and the back-end HP array couldn't ingest data from CommVault fast enough, with the result that backup was taking too long. Coraid has produced a case study which doesn't identify the particular HP storage product. However, the LinkedIn entry for a Xentrall engineer, Andy Pointon, mentions "3PAR storage OS updates." A Xentrall recruitment document also mentions a 3PAR SAN.
Coraid's case study says that, during 2011, Xentrall Shared Services began seeing performance issues with its production SAN, with limited throughput within the CommVault-based daily backup, which ran over into the next working day. According to the case study, switching the back-end array to a Coraid SRX4200:
- Freed up 120TB of space on the production SAN.
- Increased throughput performance from 195GB/hour to over 4TB/hour.
- Peaked at 7TB/hour with overnight backup.
- Saved more than £100k in capital expenditure to expand SAN storage space.
- Completed backups quickly enough for full backup replication to the Xentrall DR site to finish ahead of its backup window, providing headroom for service growth.
Xentrall's strategic technical architect Chris Oates said: "The [Coraid] price point was well below what we would have spent on additional storage with the incumbent vendor," meaning, we understand, HP.
The new Coraid worldwide sales VP has just been announced: it's Keith Carpenter, joining from Virident, which has just been bought by WD for its HGST subsidiary. In his previous position at Virident, Carpenter was was sales VP for the Americas.
Coraid may IPO around the end of 2015, which should make its VCs happy. ®

Today, health insurance is a necessity for most families. Health insurance helps subscribers pay for a portion of most routine and unexpected medical costs. There are many varieties of health insurance on the market and choosing the right one for an individual's personal situation can seem like a daunting task. Some plans can pay directly to the care provider while others require the subscriber to pay the provider first and then submit the receipt to be reimbursed through the insurance plan. Wirefly is available to help subscribers compare health insurance plans in Ionia, IA and receive free quotes online.
Most residents in Ionia, IA usually receive health insurance through their employer sponsored plan or through private insurance. Senior citizens may be eligible to receive their health insurance through Medicare while families falling into the low-income brackets can usually get their insurance through Medicaid programs. Medicare and Medicaid programs are often less expensive than other private health insurance plans.
It is so hard for a person to predict what he might need in the form of health care services. People can evaluate what has occurred in recent years to anticipate what might happen in the years to come. If an individual is health and does not go to the doctor very often a low-cost plan will probably be adequate. However, if a person suffers from numerous health problems and are forced to go to the doctor regularly, they will need insurance that provides excellent coverage.
Catastrophic only insurance is the cheapest type of insurance offered in Ionia, IA. Individuals who are healthy and do not need regular visits to the doctor might want this type of insurance coverage. If a person has an emergency, this insurance will pay some of the bill. However, people who regularly participate in high-risk activities or who might have a dangerous profession, will want insurance coverage who will pay for trips to the emergency room or visits to the doctor.
If a person wants a low deductible, he will pay higher premiums for coverage. If an individual wants full coverage health insurance, he will pay a higher price each month. However, the insurance will pay most of the bill when medical issues arise. With full coverage, the insured should be able to see a doctor for whatever is needed, or he will be able to visit the emergency room for drastic situations. Therefore, when considering an insurance plan in Ionia, IA, people need to look at their way of life and past health problems to determine what they need to pay for health insurance. It is important for people to have basic coverage, and then they can decide what they can afford to add.
There are many types of health insurance covers to choose from in Ionia, IA. These plans may look like they offer the same coverage; however, their convenience and flexibility is very different. The main types include HMO, PPO, POS, HSA, HRA, FSA, and MSA. Determining the differences between these choices will help you choose an appropriate plan.
Health Maintenance Organization, or HMO. An HMO is a plan that restricts you to a particular healthcare provider. This means, whenever you have a health concern, you will only visit a particular physician for assistance. In cases where you need additional attention, this primary care doctor will be the one to refer you to a specialist. Health maintenance organization plans in Ionia, IA are cheap compared to other plans. The major downside of HMO plans is that the network of doctors you can choose from is limited because some physicians do not offer HMO plans. The upside of HMO is that out-of-pocket expenses are relatively low and reasonable. Furthermore, you do not have to pay any deductibles.
Preferred Provider Organization, or PPO. A PPO plan involves a large network of physicians. This means that you have a bigger circle of doctors to choose from. With this coverage, you are not limited to the referrals given by your primary care doctor. You can visit a specialist without consulting your primary physician. When you are treated by doctors who are within the circle of health care providers contracted by your insurance carrier, you get to pay low medical costs. However, if you are treated by doctors who are outside the network, your insurance carrier will only pay a small fraction of the costs. With PPOs, you are subject to copayments and deductibles. There is also a limit to the amount of out-of-pocket expenses you can incur annually.
Point of Service, or POS. A POS plan combines the features of HMOs and PPOs. With POS coverage, you have a reasonable circle of medical practitioners from which you can choose a primary care doctor. Provided you remain within the circle of doctors in Ionia, IA, you will pay low copayments. There are also no deductibles in this plan. However, if you insist on seeing a physician outside the network of doctors, the deductibles and copayments are high.
Non-Conventional Health Insurance Plans. Some of the non-conventional health insurance plans in Ionia, IA, include "Medical Savings Account" (MSA), "Health Reimbursement Account" (HRA), "Health Savings Account" (HSA), and "Health Flexible Spending Arrangement" (FSA). All these plans work on the grounds that you or your employer has set aside some money in a savings account for all your medical expenses. The funds that have been set aside are used for paying doctor prescriptions, surgical treatments, doctor visits, and over-the-counter medicine. These plans provide a lot of freedom with regards to how you can use the money. Some plans even give you the option of rolling unused funds to the next year.
The premium is the monthly fee for a health insurance policy in Ionia, IA. The policyholder pays this amount for coverage even if he doesn't use it that month. The deductible is the amount that the policyholder pays for healthcare coverage first before the insurance provider pays its portion of the bill.
People sometimes confuse deductibles with out-of-pocket costs, but they're not the same. The deductible is the amount the policyholder must pay for the year before his insurance provider covers anything, while out-of-pocket costs are how much money the policyholder spends before the provider covers all of the bill.
With a typical health insurance plan in Ionia, IA, deductibles and out-of-pocket costs reset to $0 at the start of a new calendar year. For example, if a policyholder's plan has a $3,000 deductible and he spends $2,000 in out-of-pocket costs that year, his out-of-pocket expenses go back to $0 on January 1. This isn't always the case, as there are a few plans that roll over the paid deductible amount from the end of one year to the next.
The co-payment, also known as co-insurance, is the amount the policyholder needs to pay for a service. The amount can vary depending on the service. If a plan has a primary physician visit co-payment of $10, then the policyholder must pay that $10 every time he visits his primary physician. The insurance provider pays for the remaining balance as long as the policyholder has coverage for those services. Co-payments don't count towards a plan's deductible.
A plan could have a maximum lifetime benefit, which is the most that the insurance provider will pay out for the policy holder's healthcare costs. After hitting that mark, the insurance provider won't pay any more healthcare costs for the policyholder.
A person's health care options rely quite a bit on his employment status. Employees of large companies can typically sign up for a group health insurance plan. While no one is legally required to sign up for a group plan, these plans tend to cost less than individual plans.
Those who are unemployed or self-employed will need to get private, individual health insurance plans. There are other options available for senior citizens who don't work and people with low incomes. Seniors can sign up for a Medicare plan for financial assistance from the government. People with low incomes can get government-provided financial assistance through a Medicaid plan.
If a person already has a doctor he likes, he should ask what health insurance plans in Ionia, IA that doctor can accept. He must also notify the doctor regarding changes to his insurance plan.
One of the smartest decisions you can make for your well-being and the safety of your family is ensuring that you have health insurance. Numerous factors affect your health insurance coverage and rates, but using Wirefly simplifies the process of obtaining a quote for health insurance in Ionia, IA. All you need to do is enter your ZIP code.
While it is possible to cut the cost of health insurance coverage in several ways, it is crucial to avoid cutting out essential parts of coverage. For instance, if you are hoping to start a family in the future, you should make sure to select a plan that includes maternity coverage so you do not run into trouble trying to obtain it later. It is also important to ensure that you are not skimping on necessary coverage in order to save money. In the end, insurance premiums can be costly, but nowhere near as expensive as out-of-pocket medical expenses. Wirefly helps you in finding the insurance plan in Ionia, IA that is best suited to your needs.
