How to Build a Referral
Landing Page That Keeps Readers

A means to stop drop-off and measure results. Signups, earnings, and results are not guaranteed

6 elements

First view/empathy/benefits/risk/CTA/FAQ

2 systems

UTM = traffic analysis / SubID = results ID

PR required

Premised on stealth-marketing rules & financial compliance

📌 What you'll learnWhy insert an LP instead of a raw link, assembling the 6 elements, financial compliance, UTM/SubID measurement, and common mistakes — in 9 slides.

Slide 2 / Why

Why insert an LP
instead of a raw link

Stop drop-off × a landing to get convinced × measurable

Problem
Raw links lead to drop-offSent to a signup screen with no mental preparation, people get confused — "What is this service?" — and turn back.
LP
A landing to get convincedThey move on to the referral link only after understanding the contents, benefits, risks, and fit.
Upside
It can be measuredBecause the page is under your own control, you can observe at which stage people dropped off and improve.

💡 Three reasons it worksStops drop-off / improves conversion / can be measured. But results vary by individual and aren't guaranteed.

Slide 3 / Elements

The six elements
an LP should contain

First view / empathy / benefits / risk disclosure / CTA / FAQ

Element	Role
① First view	Who it's for and what they gain. PR disclosure at the top too
② Empathy	Get close to the reader's worries and trigger
③ Benefit summary	Present strengths plainly. No exaggeration, within the bounds of fact
④ Risk disclosure	State loss risk, individual variation, and no guarantees honestly
⑤ CTA	Narrow it to just one next step
⑥ FAQ	Remove the last worries before signup

💡 Key pointArrange them so "question → conviction → next step" flows naturally.

Slide 4 / Compliance

What to be careful about
in the financial genre

No definitive claims · PR required · don't pass off as real

Caution
Don't write definitive earnings claims"You'll definitely make money" or "no risk" can run afoul of the Premiums/Representations Act and the Financial Instruments Act. Add individual variation, no guarantees, and loss risk.
PR
Place the PR disclosure clearlyAn LP directing to an affiliate link is an advertising page. Put "PR/Ad" in a visible position such as the top.
Voices
Don't pass off as realIf earnings examples or user voices are a model case, state "simulation" explicitly.

⚠️ Only specs you're certain ofMinimum deposit and conditions can differ by country and time, so point to official information.

Slide 5 / Measurement

The big picture of measurement
UTM and SubID

UTM = traffic analysis / SubID = results ID

Mechanism	Role (what it shows)
UTM parameters	Your own analysis. Which source the visitor came to the LP from (via GA4 etc.)
SubID (click ID, etc.)	Identification on the results side. Which LP or post led to signup
Analytics like GA4	Visualize the stages: arrival → read-through → click → signup

💡 Separate the rolesIt's easier to organize by separating UTM = your own analysis, SubID = identification on the results side. Names differ by partner.

Slide 6 / Improvement

Find the drop-off spot
and fix just one

Put numbers on the stages → fix the biggest step

①
Put a number on each stageGrasp the rough numbers for LP arrival → read-through (scroll) → CTA click → signup.
②
Fix just the step that loses the mostChange this and that and you won't know what worked. Pick the biggest drop-off spot to improve.
③
Don't include personal info in measurementDon't put email addresses, etc., in UTMs or tags.

💡 Read as comparisonsRead numbers not alone but as a comparison — "last week vs. this week," "before vs. after a change." Even if they rise, earnings aren't guaranteed.

Slide 7 / NG

Common mistakes

Cramming · no risk disclosure · hidden PR · no measurement

NG (avoid)	The more OK approach
Cram in info so the CTA gets buried	Narrow to one page = one action
Only benefits, no risks written	Make loss risk, individual variation, and no guarantees coexist
No PR disclosure / direct in a hidden form	State "PR/Ad" in a visible position
Remake by feel without measuring	Look at clicks and signups, then fix one spot

⚠️ Stealth-marketing rulesEffective 2023/10/1 = a display in which it's hard to tell it's an ad is a misleading representation. Be especially careful in finance (YMYL).

Slide 8 / Operations

Operational tips and
organizing before the wrap-up

Mobile first · build small, measure, fix

📱
Don't neglect mobile display and speedHeavy images, tiny text, and hard-to-press buttons are drop-off factors before content even matters.
🧪
Build small, measure, and fixPublish the 6 elements as a minimal setup, and improve one promising spot at a time.
🗂️
Keep a stock of rephrasingsPrepare before you build with the "stealth-marketing rules guide" and the "collection of rewrites for NG expressions."

💡 There's no "done"An LP isn't "build it once and you're done" — it's something you fix little by little while measuring.

Slide 9 / Wrap-up

Dedicated referral LP design
wrap-up

A landing to get convinced × 6 elements × measurement × compliance

📋 Recap

① Landing: not a raw link — only the convinced proceed via the LP

② 6 elements: first view/empathy/benefits/risk/CTA/FAQ

③ Measurement: UTM = traffic analysis / SubID = results ID

④ Improvement: fix the biggest drop-off spot one at a time

⑤ Compliance: PR disclosure and no definitive claims are a must

⑥ Premise: results vary by individual · no guarantees

✅ Conclusion: Instead of a raw link, insert a dedicated referral LP and arrange the six elements — first view / empathy / benefits / risk disclosure / CTA / FAQ — in a natural flow. Measure traffic with UTM and results with SubID, keeping them separate, and fix the biggest drop-off spot one at a time. PR disclosure and compliance are a must; results vary by individual and aren't guaranteed, and FX referrals also carry a risk of loss.
