Conversion Funnel
The set of steps a visitor takes on a website to become a customer, visualized as a funnel that gets narrower at each stage.
A conversion funnel maps the customer journey from “Awareness” (visiting the site) to “Action” (becoming a lead). It helps identify exactly where you are losing potential customers.
The 4 Stages (AIDA)
- Awareness: They land on your site via SEO or Ads.
- Interest: They read your Headline and value prop.
- Desire: They view Case Studies and pricing.
- Action: They click the CTA and fill out the form.
A leak at any stage (e.g., a confusing headline or a broken form) destroys the ROI of the entire funnel.
