How bad is my landing page?

Hi!

I've just gone live with a landing page for Securely - my first SaaS app.

here is the URL - https://www.mugtraveller.com/securely-io/

I know the URL is weird, its old URL from a failed project . so I figured i would just use it to host the landing page.

I would love to get some feedback from fellow indie-hackers on the copy and UI.

The is not completed as im just try to gauge weather is worth attempting to do also any feed back on the idea would definitely be appreciated. thank you.

    A) How do you keep my data secure? Didn't see much information
    B) Sign Up. Register for an account. CTA without the field/button
    C) Maybe some demo/images from the product itself after the signup? Why should I pick you over Dropbox/Drive...

      solid points, i'll work to add that thanks

    Since I literally just launched a service for this sort of thing... here's something to help (taken out of the playbook from my service). :)

    1. What is it for? (i.e. the purpose of the landing page. The single goal you want to achieve)

    2. Who is it for? Be VERY specific. Not "people," not "co-workers," not "offices." Think more like "Jake Olsen, 23, lives in Colorado -- works at a small architecture firm as customer service; interacting with clients and architects. After work has a side hustle where he creates digital artwork for his fans. Despises soy lattes and likes to binge watch Supernatural over and over on weekends." 😊

    1. What value does the action you want Jake to take bring to Jake? Not "what" your product/service does, but how it will help Jake save time, be more reliable, have peace of mind... etc.

    On the UI side... some of the fonts could be bigger in my opinion for your on the right track.

    Good luck!

        No problem. One of the important things about what I do is not judge one’s work, but provide questions I think will spur your thinking about certain aspects you could improve.

        That usually helps more than just giving you direct feedback about what I like/dislike and think you should change.

        Best is different for everyone and you’re going to tweak the copy a million times. It’s better to have these questions answered in mind before you do.

        Good luck!

    1. is this aimed at a developer/technical audience? If not, I don't think they will know what you mean when you say 'the keys' or 'cryptographic key-sharing', so you might want to find a less technical wording for those parts.
    2. Minor detail but the following text feels unnecessary: IF YOU HAVEN’T SUBSCRIBED YET, FEEL FREE TO JOIN BELOW.
    3. If you're looking to identify the best marketing channels, I just launched a tool for that. It's currently free to use as it's in beta. https://www.lumive.io

    Purely UI feedback here, but I think it needs a lot of work:

    • The grey background and jarring white backgrounds on images make this feel like screenshots from a Powerpoint presentation that have been stitched together.
    • The flat illustration images along with the grey background clash and makes it a bit hard to see the image clearly
    • The "Why Securely" section is way too small. It looks weird being a white rectangle on a grey background with text that is much smaller (and harder to read). The subtitles are near impossible to read without zooming in and makes the whole thing look like you've pasted a slide directly on. Also the pictures aren't related to the captions (except for maybe Customer Service). Heads up, you've still got lorem ipsum text there
    • In the "How do we keep your data secure" section you've got different font sizes for each of the text descriptions. This makes it looks uneven and unprofessional.
    • The text in the "Join the Waitlist" section is hard to read because there isn't enough contrast with the background.
    • I like the "How it works" section but it doesn't fit in with the rest of the website. It feels disjointed in incoherent so it could use some work getting it to all be the same theme/design style.
    • The landscape shot at the bottom makes it feel like this is some generic template that has been relabelled rather than something you've built yourself.

    I do think it needs work. You're building a product with a lot of highly polished competitors so you need to make a good first impression!
