Ad-to-Landing Page Auditor

The #1 reason ads get clicks but not conversions: the landing page doesn't deliver on the ad's promise. This skill audits the full click path — from ad copy to landing page experience — and flags every disconnect.

Core principle: A great ad with a mismatched landing page is worse than a mediocre ad with a matched one. Message match is the single biggest conversion lever most startups ignore.

When to Use

• "Why are my ads getting clicks but no conversions?"
• "Audit my ad-to-landing page flow"
• "Check message match on our campaigns"
• "My conversion rate is low — help me figure out why"
• "Review our landing pages for our ad campaigns"

Phase 0: Intake

1. Ad copy — For each ad, provide:
   • Headline(s)
   • Body / description text
   • CTA text
   • Platform (Google Search / Meta / LinkedIn)
2. Landing page URLs — The URL each ad points to
3. Conversion goal — What should happen after someone clicks? (Demo / Trial / Purchase / Download)
4. Known conversion rates? — Current click → conversion rate per ad/LP (if available)

If the user has a CSV export from their ad platform, parse that instead.

Phase 1: Ad Inventory

Parse the provided ads into:

Ad ID	Platform	Headline	Body/Description	CTA	Landing Page URL	Conv Rate (if known)

Phase 2: Landing Page Audit

For each unique landing page URL, fetch the page content:

fetch_webpage: [landing_page_url]

If fetch_webpage is not available, use curl to retrieve the page HTML.

Extract and score:

2A: Content Elements

Element	Found?	Content
Hero headline	[Y/N]	"[Text]"
Subheadline	[Y/N]	"[Text]"
Primary CTA	[Y/N]	"[Button text]"
CTA above fold	[Y/N]	—
Social proof	[Y/N]	[Logos / testimonials / metrics]
Benefit list	[Y/N]	[Key benefits listed]
Form / Sign-up	[Y/N]	[Field count: N]
Video	[Y/N]	—
Trust signals	[Y/N]	[Security badges, guarantees]

2B: Message Match Scoring

For each ad → landing page pair, score on:

Dimension	Score (1-10)	Criteria
Promise continuity	[X]	Does the LP headline deliver on the ad's promise?
Language match	[X]	Does the LP use the same words/phrases as the ad?
Visual continuity	[X]	Does the LP feel like a continuation of the ad? (Not assessable for search)
CTA alignment	[X]	Does the LP's ask match what the ad implied?
Specificity match	[X]	If the ad was specific ("for sales teams"), is the LP specific too?
Emotional match	[X]	If the ad used fear/urgency, does the LP carry that forward?

Message Match Score: [Average/60]

Scoring Guide

Score	Rating	Meaning
50-60	Excellent	Strong match — LP delivers on every ad promise
40-49	Good	Minor disconnects but overall coherent
30-39	Needs work	Noticeable gaps — visitor has to hunt for relevance
20-29	Poor	Ad and LP feel like different products
Below 20	Critical	Complete mismatch — fix immediately

Phase 3: Conversion Friction Analysis

Beyond message match, assess landing page conversion friction:

Friction Type	Check	Status
Load time	Does the page feel heavy/slow? (Asset count proxy)	[Fast/Slow/Unknown]
Form length	How many fields before conversion?	[N fields] — [Appropriate/Too many]
CTA clarity	Is there one clear CTA or competing actions?	[Clear/Cluttered]
Above-fold conversion	Can someone convert without scrolling?	[Yes/No]
Social proof placement	Is proof near the CTA?	[Yes/No]
Navigation distraction	Does the LP have full site nav? (Should be minimal)	[Minimal/Full nav]
Mobile experience	Any mobile-unfriendly elements?	[Good/Issues]
