Earlier quoted context omitted.

I'd wager it doesn't have >10% conversion however...

It's a site offering a $1000 product/service. I'd love for you to name a single company pitching this rate that does get 10% conversion.

Context: this is a site claiming to create landing pages with said conversion rate in a day. Landing page itself was designed in a day.

Additional context:

> My landing pages convert at over 10%. Even as high as 17%.

Can't read the text at bottom "I wrote a popular design ebook, and write a weekly newsletter to thousands of subscribers." Green of green, and hover that link is white over light green...

Great stuff anyway, but the price put me down, at least for me, but I don't usually pay for nothing. I'm a bad customer (:

"jQuery, the JavaScript framework" wat

"wat"

I think what you're trying to say is: the page says jQuery is a framework, when really it's a library. Frameworks have more structure (Angular, Backbone, etc), and JQuery calls itself a library...

Author might want to fix that.

Sorry to say but everything about this website feels cheap and generic to me: from the font to the use of huge font-awesome icons, to the texture in the background; to me this page looks like it's from 2012.

"Sound too good to be true? I wrote and designed this very landing page you're reading in 1 day."

Yeah, I can tell. It's impossible to create a design that will stand on its own in a day, if only for the fact that you need to have looked at it for so much longer than 24h (which is probably more like 10h) to have any kind of perspective on what you've produced. And, frankly, I feel like somebody who's been doing this for 10 years should know this.

To me, this whole thing just reads as an easy cheap hack for this guy to make more money.

I see what you mean - although given my poor landing page design skills pretty much anything looks good to me.

Can you give an example of a decent landing page?

$1000 is a huge amount of money for what looks like a very basic landing page. In my opinion it would be better to just shell out $150 for the designmodo's startup framework, http://designmodo.com/startup/ and spend an afternoon tailoring it to your needs.

What would really sell me is if there was some hardcore copywriter/marketer behind it as well... that coupled with your great design skills would sell me!

Sorry if this was unclear, but I do include copywriting & marketing advice in the project.

So many comments from people who clearly did not even read your page! The subtitle states "I'll WRITE, design, and code a custom page...", and the very first paragraph describing your offer states: "I'm an expert COPYWRITER and designer, and I want to help you...".

Don't let the ADHD crowd get you down. Beautifully done.

I don't think that $1000 is to much for a service like this. Having worked with many non technical founders I know about their pain of finding someone who builds a landing page for a reasonable about of money.

I also know quite a few solo founders with a technical background who have pretty shitty landing pages, even though they know (technically) how to build one and/or extended one from themeforest. They just forget about white space, proper padding and stuff, but hesitate to hire a designer for a day.
