Redesigned my landing page from scratch. Looking forward to your feedback.

I've just updated the landing page of Shreddo (including the copy) after many constructive and valuable feedback in this thread: https://www.indiehackers.com/post/how-can-i-improve-this-landing-page-c3caf05ad8

I would appreciate all feedback: https://shreddo.io

I have another question for you: Would you start using Shreddo today? If not, what would make you use Shreddo?

    Quick feedback:

    1. Landing page took a very long time to load (+5 seconds)
    2. The layout is very hard to follow for some reason
    3. I don't really understand the value proposition after going through the entire landing page.

    Good try though! At the end of the day, it's all about iterating!

      Thanks for the constructive feedback! I agree - it's all about iterating.

      1. Maybe that's because of the gifs. I'll try to optimize them.
      2. Margins/paddings might be the reason.
      3. I need to address this issue.

    Hello,

    The explainer GIF wasn't transitioning to the next step until I clicked on it twice.

    I expected it to transition to the next steps and explain it all in one go.

    You should keep the GIF much earlier, so users can quickly understand how you're solving the problem.

    Congrats, good luck 👍

      Agreed. I need to make it clear how the user can solve the problem early on in the landing page. Now I need to discover how :) I will keep iterating. Thank you!

    Best advice I can give you, head over to dribbble.com. Search "SaaS landing page" and use one of them as an inspiration.

      Thank you. Some very nice designs which I will definitely look at on my next iteration.

    A couple of things you can do to improve the page:

    1. Reduce the margins/paddings within sections. They seem separated atm

    2. Make the headings bold and smaller in size

    3. Check the color contrast ratio online for the text and background colors. Can possibly tweak those to make the text more legible

    4. Try not to use the light font. Reduces contrast on smaller devices and makes it hard to read. Regular fonts will work fine as long as the headings are bold

    Hope this helps !
    Keep hacking !

      Maybe this is the reason why @juhaelee found the layout hard to follow. I will implement these changes. Thank you.

    I found a typo: "Get rid off waste" should be "Get rid of waste"

      Oops! Thank you 😅

    The UI needs to improve a lot. Check out Carrd.co for designing a landing page. I didn't understand what the apps does for me.
    Instead of telling me its feature, tell me what it means for me as a user. How will it make my life better?

      Hello shaqqs,

      I've tried to do just that in this iteration. Apparently I still need to improve the message.

    Sorry to say the same thing :)

    You will either have to spend a ton of time learning designer or just use a template.

    That landing page isn't good.

      Sorry to hear that. Thanks for being candid though.
