3 lessons I learned after building 100+ landing pages
I built 100+ landing pages in the last 14 years. They generated millions in revenue.
Today, I’m telling you 3 crucial lessons I learned:
Lesson 1: You don’t have to reinvent the wheel
Probably designers will argue with me on this, but…
The best landing pages I built and saw were simple:
ⓧ No fancy hero
ⓧ No fancy navbar
ⓧ No fancy scroll effects
Great design ≠ fancy stuff.
(i) Don’t overcomplicate your landing page.
Lesson 2: You don’t have to act smart
Maybe you’ll think it’s an obvious advice, but…
>80% of the landing pages I see monthly are smart:
ⓧ Forget about “AI”
ⓧ Forget about “Ignite”
ⓧ Forget about “Reinvented”
Impressing users ≠ acting smart.
(i) Use simple words and focus on people.
Lesson 3: You don’t have to convince anyone
This seems crazy advice, but…
Whenever I tried to convince I killed my landing page:
ⓧ You’ll want to say something more
ⓧ You’ll want to add another section
ⓧ You’ll want to add a 1-hour video
Convincing people ≠ more content.
(i) Share the key things and don’t over-try.

There’s a thin line between a good and a bad landing page.
And it’s often very easy to make one of these mistakes.
So pay more attention when you improve/build yours.
It will make a huge difference in getting leads.
