- Your website should have video on the homepage
- Your website should have reviews and testimonials form your clients
- Your website should have a live chat

The Importance of Above the Fold
On a web page the area "above the fold" before the reader has to scroll down is prime release in the online world. This is because a certain number of visitors simply won't scroll down at all, so all they will ever see is above the fold. This means that the area above the fold needs to be able to engage the viewer and hold their attention.
Have a Clear Value Proposition
Speaking of above the fold, this area of a web page needs to be able to communicate a strong value proposition. In other words, it needs to state what you're offering, why it's so awesome, and what the viewer has to do to get it.
Have Clear and Direct Calls to Action
Don't make potential customers think, do the thinking for them. Make sure you tell them exactly what they need to do in order to get whatever it is you're offering. A piece of sales material without a CTA is like a car with no wheels - useless.
Form Validation
Sometimes people make mistakes when filling out forms, and this can hurt your conversions. Make sure your forms are self-validating. In other words, the forms automatically check for mistakes, such as a zip code having too few numbers. or a required field being left blank.
Make Good Use of Social Proof
Testimonials and other forms of social proof such as case studies are incredibly powerful psychologically, and can erase all doubts from a potential customer's mind. Always use social proof if you have it, and if you don't, start collecting it ASAP.
Use these strategies wisely, and make sure you're always pushing engagement with your customer base. Do that, and your conversions will definitely improve.
