Using Notion + Potion as a simple database and website

Part of my goal in building out my Landing Page Roast service (and growing my Matter UX business) is to keep the tech as simple as possible when I can. I have a tendency to lean heavily into robust design and dev systems because I'm seeking design perfection, lock-in avoidance, maintainability, and scalability.

And over the past decade, I have learned the hard lessons of over-designing, over-developing, and delaying the launch until everything is pixel-perfect.

Not this time!

Attempting to be flexible where I can and detailed where it counts.

In order to begin building a library of content, I started simply by using Notion. Added Landing Page Reviews as I completed them, added Landing Page Examples from various sources, and began a "Landing Page Playbook" of sorts (needs work).

From there, I decided to upgrade a step from sharing a link to my actual Notion board and connection to Potion.so on the free tier for a simple Notion+Potion powered website.

Here's what I have so far:
🚀 Landing Page Reviews
🦉 Landing Page Examples
🕹️ Landing Page Playbook

This works thus far, is easy to maintain, and I can grow it as I go along.
