One of the best sites around right is Smashing Magazine. Here's a resource on Conversion Rates and Landing Pages turned up by 5 seconds on their site. There are definitely more. Other great places to look are A List Apart, The Google Adwords Blog (linked to a useful example), and of course make use of Google Webmaster Central. |

What you want is A/B testing, as Usman mentioned. In essence you build two different versions of the page and measure which one performs better. My suggestion is the Google Website Optimizer, and related book Always Be Testing |

Their blog is fantastic providing indepth insight and case studies, for example Case Study: How I Created a Viral Ebook Landing Page – Using ThemeForest, PayWithATweet, KISSinsights and Unbounce |
