The Secondary Landing Page for Lead Generation has access to a specific layer not found on other standard landing pages. It is called the "Special Report Story Layer." This layer and its elements are used to create most of the parts that are key to the lead generation section of the page.
To create a lead conversion landing page with an embedded form, select the Special Reports Layer in the dropdown to reveal more controls. You will typically place this layer below a Fixed Width Slideshow, creating a layout that consists of a large graphic image, followed by some lead-in text, and a column for a web form. The section reveals the following fields:
The gutter is a column that appears to the right of the body content in desktop presentations. This region snaps below body content in smaller viewports. The controls for this region allow content contributors to place regions such as a links list, HTML code, or Related Stories content depending on the options set.
The Related Content section allows you to add content tags to a specific page and on interior pages, to display the Related Content Widget. Adding content tags to a landing page allows it to be clustered with other pages elsewhere that contain the same tag.
For example, perhaps a site manager tags certain homepages within his portfolio of sites with a unique tag called "of-interest-to-parents." Using the Related Content controls found elsewhere, pages can be created that will display the pages that match that tag. In our example, perhaps there is an interior page somewhere called "Pages at the School of Music for Parents of Current Students." That page could present a link to the homepage we tagged because we added a matching tag on the "Content Tags" section of our Related Content component.
Once editing is complete, use the Save and Preview button to save the changes to the CMS. After you save, you can Publish the page.
It is our suggested best practice to Publish first to only the Staging destination. Once you have reviewed your page on the Staging environment, you can then Publish to the Production destination.
