PPC landing page tests for a real estate platform: +29% conversions

WinnerSeveral changes tested togetherLanding page

Upside Avenue got 29% more conversions after landing page testing ran alongside rebuilt paid search campaigns.

KlientBoost ran the work for the multifamily real estate investment platform and published it as a PDF case study.

Ad copy, keywords and pages all changed together, so this is a bundled before/after result.

+29% conversions
  • Conversions: +29%, covering the pages and campaign changes together.
  • Cost per acquisition: down 23%.
  • Click-through rate: +90% and cost per click down 54%, both from the ad side.
  • Website traffic tripled in the first 30 days, per the case study, so more volume explains part of the gain.

Control

Upside Avenue's earlier paid campaigns and destination pages, before the engagement.

Variant

KlientBoost ran landing page tests for paid traffic. These launched with responsive search ads, new ad copy, keyword mining and single keyword ad groups.

Why it likely won

Our reading of the result, not the practitioner's claim.

  • Ads and pages that share the same message make the click feel consistent, which keeps investors reading.
  • Tripled traffic means conversion growth came partly from reach, not page changes.
  • Investment platforms need trust, and tested pages give the team a chance to find which proof points work.

Caveats: Agency-reported before/after of a whole paid-media engagement; the page's share of the lift is unknown. No dates, sample size or significance were shared.
