A call to action (CTA) is the text, button, or link that guides users toward a desired outcome, such as signing up, buying, or learning more.

Clear CTAs reduce hesitation and improve conversions by making the next step obvious.

Examples include “Start Free Trial,” “Add to Cart,” or “Subscribe Now.” Testing CTA placement, color, and wording is a common optimization practice.
