6

Design and Layout

Design an attractive and user-friendly layout for the landing page, including a clear visual hierarchy, easy-to-read typography, and a strong call-to-action (CTA). Use wireframes and prototypes to iterate and test different design concepts.

7

Test and Validate

Conduct usability testing with real users to gather feedback on the effectiveness of the landing page's design, content, and CTAs. Use A/B testing to identify design elements that perform best and make appropriate changes accordingly.
