133. How to Align Ads and Landing Pages with Martin Greif
Welcome to Mastering Ecommerce Marketing! Today, your host, Eitan Koter, is joined by Martin Greif, President of SiteTuners, a company that helps businesses improve website performance through Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO). Martin has spent years understanding how visitors think, what they care about, and what gets them to take action on a website.
In this episode, Martin breaks down the three questions every visitor asks when they land on your site: “Am I in the right place? How do I feel about this site? What am I supposed to do here?” He shares simple yet powerful ways to answer these questions, like aligning your website messaging with your ads, building trust with a visible phone number, and making sure your visitors' needs—not yours—are front and center.
You’ll also hear why analytics and heatmaps are key for understanding user behavior, how to avoid common CRO mistakes, and why testing everything isn’t always the answer. Whether you’re running an e-commerce site or trying to improve your landing pages, Martin’s practical advice will help you create a site that works for your visitors—and boosts your conversions.
