Call to action
Also known as: CTA, action prompt
Understanding the term
A website offering four actions gets none. Give each page one main action, repeat it and make the alternatives less prominent.
Button text should describe what will happen. ‘Submit’ gives nothing away; ‘Get my free mockup’ describes a benefit and a timeframe.
