CTA
Call to Action — the specific ask in a piece of marketing ("Add to Cart," "Shop Now," "Claim Your Spot"). Ambiguous CTAs kill conversions.
The CTA (Call to Action) is the specific ask a piece of marketing is making: "Add to Cart," "Shop Now," "Claim My 20% Off," "Start My Free Trial." It's the single sentence or button that tells the audience exactly what to do next.
CTA rules that actually matter: be specific (not "click here"); use first-person ("Get My Bundle" beats "Get Your Bundle" in most tests); add urgency only when it's real; keep one primary CTA per page, not five competing ones.
The #1 CTA mistake on ecommerce PDPs is burying it. The Add-to-Cart button should be visible above the fold on both desktop and mobile without scrolling, and it should re-appear in a sticky bottom bar on mobile as the visitor scrolls the rest of the page.
