6 things the 1% landing pages do that 99% miss

I’ve torn apart 1000s of landing pages.

Here are 6 things the 1% landing pages do that 99% miss

1. Numbers > Buzzwords

❌ “Seamless, AI-powered workflows”
✅ “Grew MRR 47% in 60 days”

Trust isn't built by "seamless, AI-powered workflows."

It's built by numbers: Revenue, Users, Case studies.

Proof > Promise

2. Give Away Something That Hurts

Most lead magnets = boring PDFs.
Good ones feel expensive.

✅ Swipe files you actually use
✅ Frameworks you charge for
✅ Mini-courses that solve real problems

If you don't feel a little pain giving it away, it’s not valuable enough.

3. Fewer Choices = Higher Conversions

More options = more friction.

✅ 2–3 packages? Perfect.
❌ 6+ packages? You’ve lost them.

Simplify the path. Make it obvious where to click.

4. Show Social Proof with a Face

A logo wall is lazy.
Humans trust humans.

✅ Headshots
✅ Screenshots
✅ Real names + roles

Make your proof real, human, and visible. Proof should feel personal.

5. Use Testimonials That Kill Objections

Not “We love it!”

Use testimonials that answer fears:
✅ “I launched without code”
✅ “We doubled signups in 3 weeks”

Let your customers do the selling for you.

6. Your Headline Is a Promise

Lesson:

You don’t need a prettier landing page.

You need a page that reads minds, solves fears, and screams “this is for you” in 3 seconds flat.

As promised, strategy in under 1 minute.
