You’ve likely read the stats: People’s attention spans are dwindling fast (you can probably relate). Engaging online users as they land on your website or post-click landing page, and engaging them in such a short time frame, is a huge challenge for marketers. Fortunately, there are a few ways to capture someone’s attention in an instant and have them consider your offer.
The splash page is a common marketing asset to do just that.
