Roast My New Sign Up Page

Hey Indie Hackers! I build an app for generating flowcharts from text called Flowchart Fun.

My current sign up page could use some love so my goal for the week is to launch a new Sign Up page.

Here's my first crack at a design: https://ibb.co/kHvr4mP

Please give me your honest feedback! I don't have a background in design or marketing so I desperately need all the help I can get.

Thank you for checking it out! Can't wait to get this thing live after some feedback 🚀

    1. The very first thing that stands out upon visiting your site is pricing. IMO it should be the demo and the main headline that's center of the attention and not pricing
    2. If you were to put demo in the center of the attention I'd consider making it 100% width (currently it's 50%) so that's it's easy to understand what's going on and put the headline above/below
    3. On large screen top nav menu items are spread to far left/right corners. I'd personally consider of moving them centered with the rest of the content
    4. I'd suggest putting a little bit though into illustrations explaining the features - 1st and 2nd one seems very off to what the text is actually describing - maybe think what could actually represent it better? 3rd one is closer and is kinda ok, but maybe you'd fine some ideas to improve too
    5. Last point - for the demo video itself - while it looks pretty nice, I personally always prefer the video that I could skip/rewind back, otherwise if I miss or don't understand something I have to watch it all over again. In addition, I'd consider maybe it would be worth to do a voice-over explaining main features for a first time users

      That's a really good point about the pricing appearing stronger than the demo video. Thank you for taking the time to respond. I'm going to work on improving some of these items this week. Cheers!

    I'm happy to do a free video roast if you're up for it. Recently did one for ReContent.AI here: https://twitter.com/NicolasHoferer/status/1612896920124407814

      Absolutely! I would be really grateful for the feedback. If you decide to do it, my only additional comment is that the image at the very top will actually be a looping video of using the product when I build it out.

        I can wait until you have your latest version out if you want. The roasts are generally of live sites so I will be clicking around, etc.

          Sounds good! Going to gather feedback here and go live with a version on Friday morning.

          Ready for a video roast anytime. Here's a link: https://flowchart.fun/sponsor

    Hey, nice iteration.

    I think in your top hero section, the title and subtitle fonts need to be more distinct. I would say title should be 1.5x to 2x bigger than the subtitle (caveat i'm no designer). That would make it pop more. I also wouldn't have it wrap over the hero image.

    I also don't love the italics cursive font for the main title. I might switch that out for something more simple.

    1. 1

      All great points! I wasn't sure about that italics either 😬
      I'm going to roll together everyones feedback into the draft I go live with on Friday.
      Thanks so much for having a look!
