https://oncarrot.com - So, you already know your website needs to be "mobile optimized"... right? In fact, 52% of our motivated house seller, cash buyer, and rent to own tenant leads were from mobile devices last month. But what the heck does that mean and why is your "mobile optimized" website likely losing you tens of thousands of dollars per year in lost leads and lost deals without you even knowing it?
If you have the choice of a higher performing website vs. one that loses leads... which would you choose?
We run through the considerations that need to be taken into account to ensure important mobile website optimization information is easily accessible and leads aren't being lost.
When possible, we tried to make the rule or tip "actionable", defined as being able to be implement by the real estate investor or their web staff.

22. Notice the Important “Tap”
Elements on This
InvestorCarrot Site
In the Green Zone
23. On the Flip Side...
● Small Form
● Trapped in the Red
Zone
24. CREATE A WEBSITE FOR YOUR MOBILE
VISITORS
● Make your form fields large and the width of the screen
● Make your opt in buttons large, clear to read, and the width of the screen
● Add space between your form fields so people don't accidentally tap the wrong one
● Don't cram a bunch of links close together. Give them space and the thumb room to
roam
● Keep important "tap" elements out of the upper left of the screen if possible
Alrighty? Always remember we're working with thumbs here... so design for the thumb.
36. VISUALIZE A FORM
● If it Takes 14 Different Items to Get An Offer, Sellers Will
Say “No Thank You” and Move On To Search for a
Different Buyer
● 2-3 Form Fields is Ideal on the First Form. Then, Pass the
Visitor to Longer Step-2 Form AFTER the Initial 2-3
Questions, to Further Qualify the Lead
● Make Your Call To Action Button LARGE and Very Clear.
Don't Make the Searcher Struggle to Tap it
40. Video is Amazing on
Mobile!
But…
Not Always When You’re
Trying to Convert a Visitor
into a Lead
41. ● Up pops the video into a full screen player and takes them away from
their web browsing app
● There is no "tap to call" function inside a video if you put your phone
number in there but not on your site
● Once the video is done most people forget to turn off the "related
videos"... and you may be displaying your competitors videos. At Carrot
all YouTube videos you add to your Carrot site we automatically strip out
the related videos for you
● To get back to your website they have to exit the YouTube app, go back
to the browsing app, and re-engage back in your website
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU TAP A
VIDEO ON YOUR CELL PHONE?
Every step we take our visitors away from our site the more easily
they can be distracted and not give you a call or opt in as a lead.
42. ● A Final Piece of Advice is to Start Using Your Cell Phone to
Look at Your Website and Navigate it as Much as Possible
● Get Your Thumbs on Your Site and See How it Works. You Just
May Find Some Things That Aren't as Simple or Smooth as They
Could Be
● Mobile is Crazy Important These Days and is Only Getting
More Important Everyday…
Don’t Fall Behind the Mobile Curve!
