1. Starbucks – Blonde Roast

Starbucks’ Blonde Roast campaign offered coffee drinkers a free cup with their regular coffee. Each cup had an illustrated “Light Note” on it – a simple message to brighten your friend’s day. The campaign was so successful that even after Starbucks ran out of actual cups; it launched a Facebook application where people could send cards to their Facebook friends with the same messages and illustrations. The application is easy on the eyes and the mind. It’s simple and elegant with a big green button to get you started.

2. Coke – Welcome Page

Trust Coke to do it right! Coca Cola’s welcome page starts off with a great tagline “Like Coke? There’s a button for that!”. A simple but effective copy that would lead fans to immediately hit the “Like” button on top. You can play songs, browse through the gallery and also visit Coke’s other social media pages. It follows the branding theme but doesn’t overdo the red. What’s more? The landing page changes according to the country you’ve specified.

3. Scholastic – The Face Literacy Initiative

The text is well managed with visuals with ample links to get involved so you won’t miss it.

4. Harry Potter – Gift Guide

Even though the movies and books have come to an end, the legacy of Harry Potter and its fans lives on. This gift guide is a sure way to excite the Potter heads who just can’t let go of it. The animated landing page app presents a book to the fans from which they can choose from a wide range of Harry Potter merchandise. The graphics are great and there is an instant call-to-action. What more could a Potter head want? Except, perhaps a wand of course!

6. Escape Studios – Tutorials

Escape Studios is an online animation school which provides free as well as paid lessons for aspiring animation artists.

7. Volkswagen – Think Blue

It is no surprise that we have two car companies on the list. Volkswagen’s Think Blue championship has a thrilling landing page. The graphics tie in with the name of the contest and show the dreams of every participant at the top. A welcome message precedes a button that takes you directly into the championship itself. Below the fold is the description of Volkswagen’s commitment to a greener world. If you stumbled upon the page, you would definitely want to know if you will make it all the way to California!

8. Intel – Ultrabook

Intel’s Ultrabook Convertible gets its own landing page for promotion – and uses it well. The first button on the top invites you to share it with your friends. A sleek image leads the eye into the fold below which shows an embedded YouTube ad (London version) of the Ultrabook Convertible. There are more links on the right to keep you engaged in watching more videos about the Ultrabook and find out for yourself if it suits your taste.

9. College Humor – Fired

College Humor’s landing page for their presentation “Fired” featuring Jake and Amir is stunning and straightforward. The brand identity is sewn beautifully into the wacky graphics and a simple button takes you to the video. The best thing in this landing page is it really targets the Facebook audience with the tagline at the top right corner.

10. Facebook – Welcome Page

Who would understand Facebook better than the Facebook owners themselves? The landing page that welcomes you to Facebook is not only visually smart, but presents numerous opportunities for interaction with the fans. A ticket at the top gives you the latest updates about what’s going viral and what’s not so popular. The right hand column is dedicated solely for you to spread the word among your friends and below the fold, you can see what people are saying about their brand. Smooth landing? We think so!

In conclusion, a landing page serves its purpose well when it provides an immediate call-to-action for its fans. Graphics in a landing page can be very complicated or very simple – but they all serve one purpose which is to lead the eye around the page so that it entices the fan to explore it. These are some examples that you can refer to when creating your own custom landing page. Happy creating!
