clicks on a CTA naming the searched task

Anonymized results from Tailor accounts.

When to use it

When search keywords name a task (utm_term like 'convert pdf' or 'compress video') but the CTA says a generic 'Download' or 'Get started'.

How to run it

Rename the primary CTA to the task the visitor searched for, 'Convert my PDF' instead of 'Free Download'. Run one variant per keyword cluster.

Why it works

Match what the visitor came for

The button restates the visitor's own goal at the moment they decide.
