How to Create a Facebook Landing Page (5 Steps) 

Do you want to learn how to build a Facebook landing page?

One of our readers recently asked if Facebook ads are a good way to generate new leads without the costs of traditional marketing. Our response is yes, but creating a great ad without the right landing page can leave you with wasted clicks, low conversion rates, and a poor return on your ad spend.

So in this article, we’ll show you how to create a Facebook landing page in WordPress step-by-step.

Typical pages provide information about your business. But a landing page made specifically for Facebook ads encourages Facebook users to sign up for or claim an offer designed just for them, like a free trial, lead magnet, or special offer.

Take this eCommerce landing page example that we found from Craftsy. Their Facebook ad campaign has a clear call-to-action button (CTA button) inviting users to click and learn more on their product page.

Clicking the button from the Facebook timeline took us to a dedicated page to learn more about the product or service and even claim a coupon.

Step 2. Create a New WordPress Landing Page

To start creating your landing page, click the Create New Landing Page button under the Landing Pages section.

Clicking the button directs you to SeedProd’s selection of versatile landing page template, including options ideal for a Facebook landing page.

You can filter templates by clicking the tabs along the top of the screen, which include:

Hover your mouse over the template thumbnail and click the tick icon to choose a template.

After, you’ll see a popup asking you to enter your landing page name and URL. Once you enter this information, click the Save and Start Editing the Page button.

Step 3. Customize Your Landing Page for Facebook

After launching your landing page template, it opens in SeedProd’s drag-and-drop page builder, where you can customize and optimize your design.

The blocks and sections you can drag and drop onto your page are in the left-hand panel. On the right is a preview of how your landing page looks.

To add content, simply drag a block from the left panel and drop it onto the preview on the right. You can then click the block on your page to open its settings panel on the right and customize the content.

What Should I Include on My Facebook Landing Page?

Facebook landing pages are an excellent opportunity to make a great first impression on your visitors. Here are some things you should consider including on your page:

• Strong and eye-catching images: Your images should be high-quality, visually appealing, and relevant to your brand or business.
• A brief introduction: Write a short introduction to your brand or business. This should be concise and to the point, highlighting your unique selling points.
• A call-to-action: Including a call-to-action on your landing page can help drive engagement and encourage visitors to take a specific action, such as signing up for your newsletter.
• Links to your other social media profiles: If you have a presence on other social media platforms, consider including links to your profiles on those platforms on your landing page.
• Information about your products or services: Use the space below your introduction to highlight your products or services and why they are valuable to your customers.
• Contact information: Make it easy for visitors to get in touch with you by including your email address, phone number, or a link to your contact page.
• Reviews and testimonials: If you have positive reviews or testimonials from customers, consider featuring them on your landing page to build trust and credibility with visitors.

Using SeedProd WordPress Blocks

Many of SeedProd’s content blocks also have ready-made block templates. This allows you to quickly change the look and feel of your content with just a few clicks.

For example, clicking a button block on your page preview shows the content settings on the left. You can then click the Templates tab to see several different button styles. Just click one to add that style to your landing page.

You’ve probably noticed that SeedProd doesn’t just offer the standard building blocks for creating a successful landing page.

In the Advanced blocks section, you can choose from various page elements explicitly designed to generate leads for your business.

For instance, if you want your Facebook audience to sign up for a webinar, you can use the Optin Form block to collect webinar registrations.

Or you can add testimonials from happy customers to use as social proof and reassure visitors of the value they’ll get from signing up.

Adding Landing Page Sections

Besides page blocks, you can also add sections to your landing page. Sections are complete page areas like:

• Headers
• Footers
• Hero
• Call-to-Action
• Features

They include all the information that area of your page would need, and you can add it to your page with 1 click. This saves you from having to build these areas block by block manually.

For example, clicking the Sections tab and selecting FAQ shows several FAQ sections you can add to your page.

You can then customize the section as you would with any other page block.

Facebook Landing Page Size: Optimize for Success

When customizing your landing page for Facebook, it’s crucial to consider the size of various elements, especially images. The size of your images can impact how quickly your landing page loads, which in turn affects your conversion rates.

Ideal Image Sizes

• Header Image: Aim for a header image that is around 1200 x 628 pixels. This size is optimized for both desktop and mobile views.
• Product Images: For showcasing products or services, use images that are at least 800 x 800 pixels to ensure high quality.
• Background Images: These should also be around 1200 x 800 pixels to maintain quality without slowing down your page load time.

Text and Buttons

• Font Size: Keep your primary headlines between 30-40 pixels and sub-headlines between 20-30 pixels for readability.
• CTA Buttons: Make sure they are large enough to be easily clickable but not so large that they distract from other content. A height of 50 pixels is generally effective.

According to Google, 53% of mobile users leave a page that takes longer than three seconds to load. Therefore, optimizing the size of your images and elements is crucial for keeping your audience engaged and converting.

Remember to save your changes periodically by clicking the green Save button in the top-right corner of your screen.

Step 4. Configure Your Landing Page Settings

If part of your marketing strategy is to collect email addresses, you’ll need to link your landing page to your email marketing and automation service. This makes it easier to manage all the new leads joining your email list.

Fortunately, integrating your email marketing provider with SeedProd is straightforward. Just click the Connect tab at the top of your screen.

On this page, you’ll see all the popular email marketing services that integrate with SeedProd. So go ahead and choose your preferred service, click Connect and follow the steps to authorize your account.

You can find instructions for each email marketing provider in SeedProd’s email integration documentation.

Besides connecting your email provider, you can also collect emails right inside SeedProd. The details of anyone who signs up on your landing page are shown in SeedProd’s subscriber overview.

You can view this dashboard by navigating to SeedProd » Subscribers from your WordPress admin area.

After connecting your email service to SeedProd, there are a few more settings to configure before publishing your page. To find them, click the Page Settings tab along the top of your screen.

On this page, you can edit the following settings:

• General – Change your page name and URL, publish or set your page to draft, and put your landing page in isolation mode.
• SEO – Click to see the SEO settings of your landing page in a WordPress SEO plugin like All in One SEO.
• Analytics – View the Google Analytics metrics of your landing page in an Analytics plugin like MonsterInsights.
• Scripts – Enter crucial scripts to your landing pages, such as your Facebook tracking pixel and retargeting scripts.
• Custom Domain – Give your landing page a different domain name from your existing website.

You can learn more about each of these in the Page Settings documentation.

Step 5. Publish Your Landing Page in WordPress

Before publishing, ensure your Facebook landing page is mobile-friendly. If your landing page content doesn’t show properly on mobile screens, you could lose potential leads.

The good news is that you can preview your landing page on mobile easily in SeedProd.

From the Design screen, click the mobile icon at the bottom of the page builder.

This opens your landing page in a mobile preview so you can check that every element displays correctly.

Scroll through your mobile preview and click to edit any page block that doesn’t look right. When you’re happy with how your page looks, you’re ready to make it live.

To do that, click the down arrow next to the green Save button and click Publish.

A popup then appears, telling you that your page has been published.

Click the See Live Page button to see a preview of how it looks.

Setting Up Redirects for Your Facebook Landing Page

Alright, so you’ve got your Facebook landing page up and running. But what if you need to point your visitors somewhere specific after they take action?

Maybe you’ve got a thank-you page, or perhaps you want to funnel them into a different part of your site. That’s where redirects come into play.

Setting up a redirect in WordPress is a piece of cake, especially if you’re using SeedProd. Here’s how:

First, edit your landing page and choose the action element such as the opt-in form block. Inside the block settings, expand the “Success Action” heading and select the Redirect option.

Now enter the URL you’d like to redirect users to after completing the form.
