Landing pages are used to capture leads, in the form of email addresses, from a specific marketing stream. Typically they consist of a short paragraph, a list of bullet points, and a contact form. In most landing pages the design doesn’t match that of your site and there is no navigation. Landing pages can also be used within your website to display a specific offer such as an eBook. They’re very important for marketing and they usually have a much higher conversion rate than your normal pages. Convinced you need one? In this article we’ll teach you how to create landing pages using WordPress.
Create Landing Pages With Themes
You can use just about any theme to make a landing page in WordPress because most themes come with a “blank page” template. However, this isn’t really the best choice. It’s better to find a theme specifically designed for landing pages and work with the tools provided by it. Below we’ve outlined several themes that will make it easy to create landing pages with WordPress.

Conclusion
Themes are a really nice WordPress feature that can provide the framework for your landing page. These themes come with one or more templates which you can customize to create landing pages. If you want you can also create a blank template and start from scratch using the basic version of WordPress, although finding a good theme makes it much easier.
