    With regards to landing pages, where is the best place tp position the compnat brand. I recently read that the best place is at the bottom of the landing page instead of at the top.

    What do you think out there?

    Cheers

    Do you remember what the article mentioned in particular was beneficial about putting brand at the bottom? I feel anything below the fold has less of a chance being seen, especially for brand. If you have a measurable, you can use a simple multivariate targeting test to show 2 versions of the same page.

    If you have a conversion metric you can track (return visitor, etc.), the test will show you which one is working out best. Google webmaster tools will let you run a simple version of this test for free, there are also multivariate testing companies out there that do these types of projects.

    Hi  Dennis

    I suggest you follow the advice of Steve Krug, in his book 'Don't Make Me Think: A common sense approach to Web Usability', his book is a bible on the subject!

    "The Site ID or logo is like the building name for a Web site ... I need to see it on every page ... at the top of the page ... in (or at least near) the upper left corner".

    If you are doing much of this stuff get Steve's book and Jakob Nielsen's Designing for Web Usability, about £20 each on Amazon.

    Hi,

    Why not do a simple split-test to find out which position works best (or to see if it's even an issue)?

    Google have a free tool for carrying out split tests (http://www.google.com/websiteoptimizer)

    Have a go with that and find out for sure!

    Warmest wishes,

    Ben

    P.S. the recommendation for the 'Krug-book' is a good one.

    Hi Ben

    Like you said it may be an issue, it may not be. However to keep everyone happy, split tests is the best way.

    Thanks for the google link, never knew anything about that one.

    Thanks
