This enables customers to get the whole picture, whether you link to documentation that goes into greater detail or a product page.\u003C/p>\u003Cp>This will make your FAQ section as comprehensive as possible, which it should be. This is how internal linking within FAQs will help:\u003C/p>\u003Cul>\u003Cli>It will improve the user experience and your SEO.\u003C/li>\u003Cli>Your customers would read more about your products and services, gaining more insights.

Making FAQ pages SEO-friendly\u003C/h3>\u003Cp>FAQ pages help boost your SEO by specifically addressing queries that potential customers could search for on Google and other search engines.\u003C/p>\u003Cp>Therefore, it is important to make the FAQs page SEO friendly. This ensures that your page shows up when a customer is looking up something related to the kind of products and services you offer.\u003C/p>\u003Cp>\u003Cem>Pro Tip: \u003C/em>Create a page with all the FAQs and then link to specific pages that address each in greater detail to make the most of your FAQ page's ability to boost website SEO.\u003C/p>\u003Cp>By building this network of links, you will be able to direct customers to your dedicated website when they are searching for information about your product. It will also help your URL appear when people search for information on the goods or services of your competitors if you address these queries on different pages. This means more traffic for your website and happier folks.\u003C/p>\u003Cp>Once you appear in a search for a competitor's name, you can convert these customers by sending them to your homepage or product page once they find the solution to their problem.\u003C/p>\u003Cp>Let us take the example of the \u003Ca target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https://aws.amazon.com/faqs/?ref=www-internal-blog.chatwoot.com\">FAQ page of Amazon Web Services\u003C/a> (AWS). It might look very simple at first glance. But, it is a highly useful page and makes it simple for visitors to obtain necessary information.\u003C/p>\u003Cp>To increase visibility and relevance, the landing page serves as a clickable table of contents for FAQ. When you click on any of the FAQs, it takes you to relevant answers and explanations.\u003C/p>\u003Cp>This URL format is helpful for SEO regarding relevance and internal linking. This solution demonstrates the value of having a centralised hub as it makes it much simpler to navigate.\u003C/p>\u003Cfigure class=\"kg-card kg-image-card\">\u003Cimg src=\"https://www-internal-blog.chatwoot.com/content/images/2022/11/aws-faqs.png\" class=\"kg-image\" alt=\"Example of faqs of amazon web services\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1018\" srcset=\"https://www-internal-blog.chatwoot.com/content/images/size/w600/2022/11/aws-faqs.png 600w, https://www-internal-blog.chatwoot.com/content/images/size/w1000/2022/11/aws-faqs.png 1000w, https://www-internal-blog.chatwoot.com/content/images/size/w1600/2022/11/aws-faqs.png 1600w, https://www-internal-blog.chatwoot.com/content/images/size/w2400/2022/11/aws-faqs.png 2400w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 720px) 720px\">\u003C/figure>\u003Cp>\u003C/p>\u003Ch3 id=\"3-placement-of-ctas\">3. Placement of CTAs\u003C/h3>\u003Cp>Clever placement of CTAs on the FAQ pages without overcrowding is important. It helps customers to read through the FAQs.\u003C/p>\u003Cp>Say, a clear and simple CTA on top of the FAQ page can be a good way to make customers click on that button. For instance, Mailchimp has a very simple and direct CTA on the top of the \u003Ca target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https://mailchimp.com/andco/faqs/?ref=www-internal-blog.chatwoot.com\">FAQ page\u003C/a>, which makes it easier to \u003Ca target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https://startup.unitelvoice.com/conversion-rate?ref=www-internal-blog.chatwoot.com\">get conversions\u003C/a>.\u003C/p>\u003Cp>Certain things that the placement of CTAs on the Mailchimp FAQ page teaches us are as follows:\u003C/p>\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Put your CTA at the top of the page.\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\u003Cp>Your CTA should be placed at the top of the page because it is the single most crucial element of your website. It is how conversions are obtained. Without having to scroll down or look for it, you want to ensure that people can see it, read it, and click on it.\u003C/p>\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Make sure that the text on the CTA button is simple and direct.\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\u003Cp>When the text is simple and asks for a very specific action, customers are much more likely to click on it. For instance, the CTA on the Airbnb page just has a very simple text saying “Log in or sign up.” This is very clear and to the point.\u003C/p>\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Ensure that there aren’t too many CTAs on your FAQ page.\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\u003Cp>The last thing that you want your customers to face is information overload. An FAQ page already has a lot of information for customers to grasp.\u003C/p>\u003Cp>Adding excessive CTAs and overcrowding the page will serve no purpose. Instead, it might discourage customers from clicking on the CTA button. So it is important to minimise the number of CTA buttons you place on your FAQ page. \u003C/p>\u003Cp>\u003Cem>Related read\u003C/em>: \u003Ca target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https://www.chatwoot.com/blog/dos-and-donts-of-customer-service?ref=www-internal-blog.chatwoot.com\">14 do’s and don’ts of customer service\u003C/a>\u003C/p>\u003Ch3 id=\"4-categorisation-of-questions-on-your-faq-page\">\u003Cbr>4.
