What is buyer friction and how does it hurt my landing page conversions?

Buyer friction refers to unaddressed doubts or missing information that causes visitors to bounce before taking action, such as unclear pricing, product fit concerns, or lack of security guarantees. When users land on a static page that fails to immediately answer these core questions, they leave in seconds regardless of how relevant the traffic source was. Fixing this requires dynamically adapting headlines, proof points, and calls-to-action to match the specific intent behind each visitor's search or click.
