1️⃣ Not Fully Understanding the Product or the Business
If you don't fully grasp the product a business is selling, you can't help them sell it better. Many startups begin designing their landing page before their product is fully developed. In such cases, you still need to spend as much time as possible to deeply understand the product they are creating. Otherwise, you'll face a nightmare. Don't ask how I know. 🙈
2️⃣ Jumping Directly to Using a Template or Web Builder
With so many templates available, why not jump directly to using a Squarespace template? Absolutely not!! Opting for a template can limit your creativity and make you focus on filling in the blanks, instead of designing the overarching flow first. You'll likely want to add customizations later and realize it's too difficult with the chosen template.
3️⃣ Not Investing Enough Time in Talking to Users and Wireframing
Don't rush to high-fidelity designs. Starting by talking to users and iterating on your low-fidelity designs can save you a lot of time in the long run.
As a UX/product designer, I'm still amazed at how much more difficult designing a landing page actually is.
If you're interested in learning how the UX design process works in Big Tech, I've poured all my exclusive experience and knowledge into the Fast Track UX Course. While the course doesn't focus much on landing pages, it covers how to design for tech products and is specially designed for those looking to break into tech. Just Google it. 😉
