When requesting information like email addresses, offer something in return. For example, provide a download link for the whitepaper they are searching for if they sign up for your mailing list. Then make sure to tailor the content to their area of interest.

  • Write at a 7th grade reading level
  • Correct spelling and grammar
  • Images should be related to content
  • Use descriptive link text for accessibility
