Hi indiehackers,
Please let me know if everything is clear for you and you understand the value proposition. Any suggestions for improvements would be very helpful) Nearz.io
Career path navigation platform for cybersecurity experts
I count four different Fonts on your page. Usually, stay with two different at max. Kickout the font for the navbar and try to change the font for your tag bubble.
You could change the favicon of your page. I usually don't trust sites that much when I can easily see that it's built with a page builder :D
The "Let's start" wasn't that clear for me. At first, I didn't notice that you could click on the tags. And I was not sure if I would submit these tags when I entered my email address. It would be great if you could show the selected tags within the form to submit.
I really like the clean design. With that said, I have a hard time seeing the value of your service by just skimming it. II think just changing the main header to something that more showcase the value of your services would help a lot.
I am not a copywriting expert, but would try to change it in the following direction:
From: Career path navigation platform for cybersecurity experts
To: THE tool that will increase your chances of landing YOUR dream cybersecurity job
Also, I would probably try to structure the colorful "skill cloud" a bit. For me it was hard getting an overview of what was there. Hope it helps :)
Improvement: 1) Show what the end result would look like
Improvement 2): Any real person using this method and actually got some benefits? Can you get a testimonial from them!
thanks! Took a look at your landing page also:) here is my two cents: too much free space left, Is your solution is about post tweets 5 times faster than usual? You mentioned that it helps to grow the audience - how?
When I click "XSS" in the word cloud Safari does nothing and logs the following errors:
[Error] Origin https://www.iframe-custom-content.com is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Origin.
[Error] XMLHttpRequest cannot load https://chipik.ch:4443/tags/set/XSS due to access control checks.
[Error] Failed to load resource: Origin https://www.iframe-custom-content.com is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Origin. (XSS, line 0)
Here are some thoughts that I had, hopefully, you will find them useful. 😀
Some design tips:
Having content from side to side isn't generally a good idea since people with large screens (including me) have to move their head around to view the content.
As already said before, it is generally a good idea to stick to one font. If you are absolutely sure about what you are doing and are an experienced designer, then you can add in a few others.
The step section looks a bit boring. It has a lot of empty space, the layout isn't evenly aligned and the hierarchy is a bit off. Make sure that the important stuff is clearly bigger/bolder or with a differentiating colour. (For example, title "Step 1" is not as important as the content of it. Make less important stuff attract less attention and vice versa.)
The "Let's Start" section is also a bit confusing. There are so many things for me to look at, and the section generally doesn't really make much sense in my opinion.
Some copywriting tips:
Instead of using basic "Start" CTA, research the topic a bit more and choose a better one that excites the visitors.
Why should I trust or care about Nearz? Include some testimonials, reviews, etc...
Some other thoughts:
Instead of coming up with design ideas yourself, take a look at what others are doing. Do not copy-paste their work, but get inspiration and add your own flavour to it.

Thank you! Very valuable for me!

There are too many fonts on the website. Use one or at max, two.
I don't like the rainbow colors on the pile of words. You should change font-weight or go with italics instead of changing color.
There is too much empty space between features. You should probably add more text or make it a gallery instead of full sections.
I hope I helped. I would love some feedback on my page too: https://www.supertweet.co

Looks great 👍
Mobile useless could improve.
It would be interesting on expanding that service to other domains
I also like the suggestion of giving something before asking for the email. Maybe, split the results in 2 parts.
Thank you! sure, we will expand as soon as see the market needs:)
