Tips for Creating Funnels for Your Website:
1. Keep your CTAs to a minimum and as clear as possible.
2. Using your website as a content resource will keep users interested in your website and sign up for your eNewsletter. Capturing their emails allows you to keep in contact with them even if social platforms disappear.

How You’re Hurting Your Website Funnels
1. There are too many Call-to-Actions on a Homepage or there are none. You should have no more than 3-5 CTAs.
2. Photographers jump straight into talking about themselves without talking about their service or the opposite and they’re not talking about themselves at all.
3. The “About” page isn’t speaking to your dream client.
