Create Landing Pages That Convert
Imagine this:
You finally get people to visit your site after weeks of tweeting, building in public, and talking to early users.
They click the link, scan the page… and bounce.
No signup. No interest. No traction.
Why? Because your landing page didn’t do its job.
You don’t just need a place to send people—you need a page that converts curious visitors into excited early adopters.
Let’s break down how to build one that works.
Meet Tom
Tom built an impressive cloud analytics platform.
Feature-rich, decent UI, great performance.
But his landing page? A wall of technical jargon and bullet points.
It spoke to , not to the humans who actually needed help managing work.
His conversion rate? A painful .
The problem?
His landing page spoke to computers, not people with problems.
The Simple Formula for High-Converting Pages
Skip the fluff. Nail these 3 things:
- The Problem — What pain does your audience feel?
- The Solution — How do you solve it simply and clearly?
- The CTA — What’s the one action you want them to take?
Your landing page isn’t about selling your product.
It’s about starting a conversation with the right people.
✅ Add Social Proof (Even If You're New)
People trust people. Especially when you're just starting out.
Here’s how to build credibility early:
- Show your waitlist count ("Join 127 devs already on the waitlist")
- Add testimonials from beta testers or early users—even if they're friends
- Embed social buzz (tweets, replies, DMs from people showing interest)
- Use GIFs or short videos that show the product in action—let them see it
You don’t need fancy branding—you need clarity.
In the first , the visitor should know:
What is this? Who is it for? Why should I care?
A high-converting landing page isn’t just a marketing asset—it’s a signal to your audience:
“Hey, something valuable is coming. Want in?”
Now that you’ve got a page that works, it’s time to softly open the gates.
In the next lesson, we’ll cover how to run a that builds traction before you’re fully live.
