My SaaS is under closed beta, a good time to get feedback on the landing page.
https://docswrite.com
If you use Google Docs to write your content, it is a no-brainer to use docswrite to convert it to a blog. I will add testimonials when launching to all users.
How do you like the landing page?
I think that from the point of view of content, it is quite well explained and the information is clear, however I think that the page looks a bit generic and may need a little more "branding", but apart from that it is very good !
Yes true! For my other business https://remotefront.io, I did some solid branding on the visuals and how things should look.
I will do the same here.
Great concept Sandeep, really clear headline as well!
Your sample blog is very confusing and clearly there just as a test - I'd recommend populating it with content that's helping your consumers understand Docswrite better, and proving that you're actually using your own tool (and therefore have faith in it!). That way you can also use it as shareable content, cutting down marketing effort.
Design-wise, there are an awful lot of different styles just in the first 600px or so of the site. Keep in mind that our brains like space and uniformity, it helps us to absorb information better, so I'd pare back your text styles to a maximum of 4.
The benefits list is huge and lacking information, I'd lay this out differently so it's a list of headlines that can be clicked on for a bit more detailed information, and keep user testing to find out what are the top 3 benefits to users, and focus on those. Put the rest in a 'more details' page or section later on if people really want to drill down.
Really great start though, nice work!
Wow! 😯 Thank you for such constructive feedback.
You are correct here. I did not notice that my blog is not providing any value to the users. I will remove all those shitty blog posts and serve only required sharable content on them.
Design doesn't have consistency. I am working on fixing that.
I love this idea. I can show 6 main benefits and can have their detailed page when people click on them. This way I will know what's more important!
I will definitely contact you again.
Interesting concept. I'd definitely like to see more of HOW IT WORKS on the page.
Probably a short video in the second fold might help.
One more thing that I noticed: You're selling me on the benefits of Google docs but what as a user I might be looking for is - How is it that your tool can help? Not the benefits but actual behind the scenes.
For example: The page says BUILT IN SEO. How? What is it that you do for this?
DESIGN SPECIFIC FEEDBACK
There's a lot happening on the page: Multiple different font styles and colors. You can try to be more consistent here.
Thank you for your constructive feedback. Really appreciate it.
I actually have a demo video on the homepage. Maybe I need to make it pop somehow
Yeah I have not mentioned how docswrite would benefit people. I am thinking of creating feature pages linked to each feature mentioned on the homepage. Each feature page then would explain how it works.
I have removed the custom font.
Awesome! By the way, you might want to check your Twitter handle on IH. It takes the user to a non-existent profile.
Thank you. Just fixed it. A few days back I changed my Twitter username.
If your tool can fit my blog's formatting, I want to get access

Nice blog post btw.
Docswrite offers inbuilt themes. This means you can change the look and feel of the blog very easily.
Currently, there are two themes only. But once we start to grow, there would be more themes and I can even add options for fellow developers to create their own themes.
Check a recent blog post look and feel: https://blog.docswrite.blog/pricing-plan
If you have written your blog post in a google doc and can share me the link then I can show you how it would look once I publish it.
Can your tool fit my blog format?
Yes, I can create a theme. DM me your Gmail id https://twitter.com/sandeep_indie
I will add you as a closed beta user.
Hi, It's difficult for me to understand what this is about. Why I should use it and how it can help me. I think it can be a good idea to add some branding, company name and logo. I also recommend you to improve design, this one look a bit old fashion and show lack of professionalism. The first impression is important and determines whether someone will read what it's on this page.
You can also add some social prove, customer comments, reviews.
Hope that this comments will help you improve your LP.
Nice idea. Wish you well.
Missing a space between "themes.It" under "How it works?"
Also, "How It Works" is a statement, not a question, so drop the question mark :)
Otherwise, interesting concept!
I will fix them. Appreciate your feedback.
The landing page looks really very clean and explanatory congrats :))
Nice to hear. Thank you. I am working really hard on the core product.
I like the idea. However, I would put the H1 on the left and the animation on the write because I think that the animation is really cool and immediately shows what your product does.
In the WBE Space we often review each other's landing page and we notice that the the F shape works best
Thank you 🙏 . I love your idea for the homepage. I am gonna do it actually.
Glad I could help :)

This is really cool. For someone that is your target audience, I get the message.
On thing that is not clear:
Are you hosting the blog? What about the domain name?
Also would be useful in what language to you translate the Google Doc? (Rich text?)
Yes, docswrite hosts the blog. It's a complete publishing platform. You can connect your custom domain.
If Google Docs supports a language then docswrite supports it too. To test it I just published a sample blog written in my mother tongue Bengali

It works well.
Do you provide analytics?
Yes via plausible Analytics
I think it is ok. The headline is good tough, got my attention very fast. Very catchy. I just want to try it out.
Thank you. DM me your email on Twitter https://twitter.com/sandeep_indie , I will onboard you as a closed beta user.
