Challenge

Headlines often dominate visual focus, but call-to-action buttons (the conversion drivers) risk being overlooked. The test here was to determine whether the hero layout prioritized the CTA effectively within the first few seconds of user interaction.

Results

Headlines absorbed more than 60% of gaze, while CTAs drew as little as 14%. Supporting imagery and navigation links further diluted attention. The recommendation was to reposition the primary CTA closer to the headline and increase visual contrast.
