Hi IH,

I've been running https://pydist.com for ~6 months and I'm finally starting to get a trickle of customers, so I decided the landing page and signup flow were due for an upgrade.

The signup flow had a lot of dropoff when it was a separate page, and there was unused space

    Hi!

    Congratulation on the redesign! I have some feedback:

    • Your Pricing section is broken into two lines: first, freelance, small, medium; and large, varies. IMHO, you should rename Varies to "Enterprise" or "Custom", Varies feels weird. I don't like that it's broken up to two lines, maybe you should condense your plans? In the first line the buttons don't line up vertically. Your last button, under Varies, is not stylized.

    Hope this helps.

      Thanks for the feedback! Can I ask what browser you are using? You're the second person to report the button in the last pricing card being unstylized, but I can't reproduce it.

          Thanks! It should be fixed now. (Unfortunately both reports I've gotten are from iOS, and I don't have any iOS devices)

    Hiii there! I hope everything is fine! :)

    1. I would group the "actions" to the right. It's confusing for me to see the Auth CTA (login/signup) on the left, usually are on the right and it's confusing for me. (I did not know if the free trial button was a label or a button actually)

    2. If you used placeholders for the first 2 fields, use it on the passwords as well. Just use placeholder='****' and it will make the thing.

    3. About the white card that wrapps the form, try to round the corners 10px.

    4. Give it more padding (internal white space)

    5. Align all the content of that card to the left (title and button included)

    6. Use a light grey as background-color of the inputs

    7. Related to the start packaging button, make the font-size a bit smaller and bold

    8- The Space between the blue button confirm and the last password field should be bigger than between inputs.

    9 - Related tot he pricing cards, align all the content to the center or to the left but don't mix.

    Well done mate! I want to see the progress 🎉🎉🎉
    Congratulations!
