How did you do the landing page. what is your process?

I am sharing how I am doing my landing pages, so it is easy to hand over to a remote developer.

I learnt this after failing for 2-3 attempts for 2-3 months working with remote designers and remote developers and now I feel comfortable to flush out my thoughts/content with the below process.

Look at the landing page for my new project
www.servicefolder.com/listing-apps/hvac-ecommerce.html

  1. Buy mockup tool like axure rp. This has low learning curve and good for low to medium fidelity wireframes. Don't go for high fidelity tools like figma/xd (high learning curve)
  2. Buy a html template. Before buying understand your developer css skills like bootstrap or tailwind. Buy a suitable template. In my case, I chose a template
    https://tailpro.tailwindtemplate.net/index.html
  3. Now make suitable components in axure rp as per the above template. In my case I made all the components as per https://tailpro.tailwindtemplate.net/snippets/index.html.
  4. Make a landing page with the components in axurerp. Fit your content as per the components
  5. Hand over the axurerp design to html/css developer
    Tell the person to strictly use the code from the template and follow the template styles only.
  6. Done. - You can easily create many landing pages as quickly as possible.

Cons: Your creativity will be limited to the template you have chosen.

Let me know your thoughts .

    I think it's a fine process. You get very customised landing pages by doing this.

    My approach depends on whether it's a landing page that needs to validate an idea or a landing page for my product.
    If it's for my product, then I get a designer on it and follow more or less the process you've described, just staying within the theme of my product, of course.

    If I just need to test an idea fast. Then I spin up a landing page in Webflow or Brizy.cloud buying a template and go from there. Then I'm up and running within a couple of hours.
