What should be our budget for a high-quality landing page?

We could really use some help building our front-page, what price should we expect to pay for high-quality work?

    What stage are you in? There is a time to invest and a time to be cheap and good enough. So what stage are you in?

      MPV in 2 weeks, we spent a lot of time and effort building our SaaS, so we want something that looks great and converts instead of a quick low-cost solution we already have.

    Unless your idea has been validated, I’d recommend a no-code/low-code solution since you aren’t a developer. If your idea has been validated, you should have no problem finding a frontend dev that is passionate to partner up with. Ideally, you don’t want to spend a ton of money if you’re not making money. Talent and time are way more important at this stage.

      We believe we have validation and a few users. That is I can't imagine now having my platform now, we use it daily. Thank you!

    I have heard people spending 5 figures for a whole website lol.

    A way to cut costs is to build it on https://versoly.com/ (i built it), then hire a designer to add their touch to it (images, extras)

    Please do update me on what software you use, how much you pay and the process. Love collecting data for this :)

      Thank you, the site looks great. We are focusing on the actual tool and back-end, so we don't want to deal with this part ourselves, and instead, find people with lots of experience on building something that converts. We won't spend 5 figures! maybe between 1 to 2 K for an experienced agency.

        Smart.

        I see so many SaaS companies pull off developers from the product to work on landing pages.

        Their solutions are always worse as well for the marketing team.

          Right, so the issue there is an amazing project with the wrong front door. That could actually damage or even destroy good projects.

            Exactly.

            Another mistake is putting blog on blog.example.com so much SEO lost.

            But SaaS usually have to because their app is on the main site.
