I think the gotchas aren't for the early adopters and power users. It's for the people who will eventually make up the larger, more lucrative percentage of their user base starting…

Users do. I spent a whole summer A/B testing an app's landing page to get 10+% more conversions. Over 50 experiments, the biggest win was having a hero image. Its actual content di…
