Page Purpose
| Purpose | Goal |
|---|
| Download | Guide users to install desktop or mobile app |
| Trust | Build confidence before download (security, privacy, reviews) |
| Conversion | Maximize download rate, store visits, install conversion |
Download Page Structure
| Step | Purpose | Elements |
|---|
| 1. Value proposition | Why download | Headline, benefit-focused copy, key features |
| 2. Platform selection | Clear path | Desktop: OS detection or manual pick; Mobile: App Store / Play Store buttons |
| 3. Trust signals | Reduce friction | Ratings, download count, security badges, privacy note |
| 4. Visual proof | Show the app | Screenshots, app previews, video |
| 5. CTA | Primary action | Single, prominent download button |
Platform-Specific Layout
Desktop App
- OS detection : Auto-detect OS or show "Download for Windows / macOS / Linux"
- Direct download : One-click .exe / .dmg / .deb etc.
- Alternatives : Optional "Other platforms" or "Command line" for power users
Mobile App
- Dual store : App Store + Play Store buttons side by side
- Smart redirect : Detect device and show relevant store first; still show both
- QR code : Optional for desktop visitors to scan and install on phone
Optimization Best Practices
Performance
- Load time : Under 3 seconds; each extra second can cost ~7% conversion
- Mobile-first : Most app download traffic is mobile; responsive, thumb-reachable CTAs
- Image optimization : WebP, lazy loading, compression (e.g. TinyPNG, ImageOptim)
Conversion
- Single primary CTA : "Download Free Now," "Get on App Store," "Get for Windows"
- Above the fold : CTA visible without scrolling
- Repeat CTA : On longer pages, repeat at logical points
- A/B test : CTA color, size, copy, placement
Trust & Social Proof
- Star ratings : Show App Store / Play Store ratings
- Download count : "10M+ downloads," "Trusted by X users"
- Testimonials : User quotes, media logos
- Security : Security badges if collecting sensitive info
Content
- Top 3–5 features : Benefit-focused, scannable bullet points
- Screenshots : High-quality, show app in action
- Video : App preview or demo video
Alignment with Traffic

- Email : Match campaign message and CTA
