As we learned last week, the purpose of a call-to-action is to get your website visitors from point A to point B. You want them to take a specific action, such as downloading an eBook, signing up for a webinar or newsletter, requesting more information about services, etc.
Once your visitors click on the call-to-action, where do they go? They go to a landing page!
We’ve listed 10 of the most valuable and current ebooks, containing all the important aspects of inbound marketing you simply can’t afford to ignore.
Watch Craig Kilgore and Patrick Allen discuss what a call-to-action is and why you should have them on your website in this week’s edition of #MSHUnderReview.

Cut out the “bikini-clad”, hyper-sexualized women in an advertisement and insert a gorgeous man (or several of them). This man could fit any woman’s fantasy; he’s the stereotypical stud-muffin. How do women feel about sexy ads now?
Compared to traditional marketing, digital marketing is still the new kid on the block, so it’s only natural that the true potential of email marketing is not widely known. For those of you who don’t fully understand the reach of email marketing, I’m going to review the five w’s (who, what, when, where, why) of email marketing.
