A few thoughts: (1) You might want to stick to a more traditional landing page to help increase your conversion. The way your page is designed right now doesn't scream out to me to sign up or anything. There's a reason many landing pages look the same, and it's because they work, so people keep using the same conventions. If you're trying to break conventions, then you need to have a very good reason why you're doing…

Do you suggest any good, succinct resources on best practices in landing page design?

The page is HTTP. I try to avoid submitting any personally identifying information over the Internet in plaintext. (Maybe the form submit is HTTPS, but I'm not typically going to bother to check a thing like that. Sites that I want to visit respect my privacy by defaulting to HTTPS.)

I doubt that's really something most people are going to consider
