I analyzed 2,400 landing pages with AI. Here are the 7 most common reasons they don't convert (with exact fixes).

Over the past few months I built a tool that audits landing pages across CRO, SEO, AEO, and GEO. It's processed 2,400+ pages now. Here's what actually kills conversions — ranked by how often we see it.

  1. The headline describes the product, not the outcome.

This is #1 by a mile. 73% of pages we audit open with something like "The all-in-one platform for teams" or "Welcome to [Brand]."

Nobody cares what your product is. They care what their life looks like after using it.

Before: "The smart project management tool for agencies" After: "Cut client reporting time by 4 hours a week — or we'll refund you"

The second headline has a specific outcome, a specific audience, and a risk reversal. The first has none of those.

  1. The CTA says "Get Started" — which is the worst possible button text.

"Get Started" describes effort. It tells the visitor they're about to do work. That's friction at the exact moment you need zero friction.

Replace it with the outcome the button delivers.

Before: "Get Started" After: "See my score in 30 seconds →"

One word change on a CTA button routinely moves conversion 1–3%. It's the highest ROI edit on this list.

  1. Social proof is either missing or buried.

The pages that convert have trust signals above the fold — before the visitor has to scroll. The pages that don't convert have testimonials at the bottom, after the pricing section, where nobody reads them.

Rule: your single strongest proof point belongs in the first 400px of the page.

If you have a good testimonial with a specific number in it ("conversion rate went from 2.1% to 3.8%"), it goes directly under your headline. Not in a carousel. Not below the fold. Right there.

  1. No FAQ schema — which means AI tools can't find you.

This one is invisible to most founders. If your page has no FAQPage JSON-LD schema, Perplexity, ChatGPT, and Google AI Overviews can't easily cite you when someone asks "what's the best tool for X."

The fix takes 20 minutes. Add 5–7 Q&A pairs covering pricing, methodology, who it's for, and what makes it different. That's your AEO foundation.

  1. The value prop takes more than 5 seconds to understand.

Read your headline and subhead out loud. If you can't explain what you do to a stranger in one sentence after reading it, your page fails this test.

Fix: show your homepage to someone who has never heard of your product. Ask them one question: "What does this do?" If their answer doesn't match yours, rewrite until it does.

  1. Pricing creates confusion instead of removing it.

The pages that convert use pricing to anchor, not to explain. The moment pricing requires reading, you've lost.

What works: a free tier (or free trial) next to a paid tier, with a short, specific feature list.

What doesn't work: three paid tiers with 14 feature rows and tooltips on every line.

If your pricing table takes more than 8 seconds to parse, simplify it.

  1. Mobile experience is an afterthought.

Over 60% of the pages we audit have a desktop experience that's been squished onto mobile rather than designed for it.

Fix: load your page on your phone right now. Tap the CTA button. If your thumb misses it or has to stretch, your button is too small or in the wrong place.

The pattern across all 7:

Every one of these is fixable in an afternoon. None of them require a redesign. The pages that convert aren't more beautiful — they're more specific.

I built Roast My Page (https://roastmypage.shop/) to automate this audit. Paste your URL or copy, get a score across CRO, SEO, AEO, and GEO in 30 seconds, and a prioritized fix roadmap with exact rewrites — not generic advice.

Free preview. Full report is $9 one-time. 100% refund if it doesn't find at least 3 issues on your page.

Happy to audit anyone's page in the comments too — just drop your URL.

E-commerce site build for a client — what feels off to you?

Hey everyone,

I recently finished building this e-commerce website for a client in the saree/fashion space and wanted to get some honest outside feedback before I fully wrap things up. After staring at the same design for too long, it gets hard to notice what feels off 😅

The branding/content side will be getting a proper refresh soon, so I’m mainly looking for feedback on the website experience itself - how it feels as a user, whether anything feels confusing, awkward, slow, or if something would make you hesitate before buying.

Check it out: https://sarees-phi.vercel.app/

Would genuinely appreciate honest feedback, even if it’s brutal 🙂

Looking for feedback on my website

I’ve been working on a website for a product called QuickProof and would really appreciate some honest feedback.

Here’s the link: https://www.quickproof.ai/ 

It still feels a bit rough in terms of layout and clarity, so open to suggestions on design, structure, or anything that stands out. If you’re a designer/developer and your ideas resonate, I’d be open to connecting and working together to improve it

Hey everyone,

Sharing my side project here for some real feedback.

What it does: You land on the page and you're instantly connected to another person. No account, no login, no signup required. One click and you're talking to someone. That's the whole thing.

The audience is people who just need to talk but find every other option too heavy or complicated.

What I genuinely want feedback on:

  • Does the landing page tell you what it is within the first few seconds?
  • Does the minimal design feel intentional or just unfinished?
  • Does the no account approach feel like a feature or does it feel untrustworthy?
  • What is the first thing that would make you leave without trying it?

I deliberately stripped back every feature that wasn't essential. Trying to find out if that reads as clean and focused or just bare.

Not here for compliments. Here for the honest stuff that helps me make it better.

Let me know your thoughts in the comments or feel free to DM me.

Need community help on the landing page feedback that I just revamped but still not sure if it can be made better

I am the founder of a delivery platform. We sell a one-time source code license to clients who want to own their own delivery platform instead of paying commission to aggregators forever.

Right now I am doing about 5% registrations on the landing page. It was 2.7% before I rewrote some of the copy, so I know the page can move, I am just not sure what to try next.
The audience is mixed. Some are ideal customer profiles who know exactly what they want. Some are developers looking at the stack. Some are wannabe founders who are still figuring out the idea. Some are existing businesses that want to shift from being on Uber Eats or DoorDash to running their own platform. That is a lot of different people landing on the same page.

A couple of ideas stuck in my head. Should I split the page into two, one for operators and one for developers, since they care about completely different things. Or should I keep it as one page but make the path clearer for each type of visitor. Not sure which is the right move.

If anyone here has a landing page sitting in double digits, I would really like to hear what worked for you. Even one or two things you changed that actually moved the number would give me ideas I can try.

Response to Feedback: "I built a geopolitical intelligence aggregator that monitors 641 sources and clusters events with auditable confidence scoring"

https://panopsik.com/

Eight days ago, I posted this project Panopsik here and got some of the most useful feedback I've received since starting it. Thank you genuinely. The kind of criticism this sub gave would cost serious money from a consultant and you gave it for free.

I want to address the main points directly rather than just saying "we listened."

Basically...  you were right on almost everything. The event points were showing too little to be actionable, the intelligence assessments were AI-generated noise that wouldn't survive five seconds with a real analyst, and the related articles were embarrassingly off-topic. These have been the priority this week.

What's changed:

  • Added a landing page.
  • Broke down the main dashboard into multiple lighter dashboards.
  • Fixed a mountain of imperfections.
  • Added the infrastructure layer.
  • Currently in the process of allowing users to create their own dashboards depending on what information they want.

What's new:

You can now create an account. This lets you save searches, set alert thresholds for specific regions, and track how situations develop over time rather than getting a snapshot. It also means we can start understanding how people actually use this, which will drive what we fix next.

Still rough: clustering confidence on lower-tier sources, multilingual support, Southeast Asia coverage. We know.

If you tested it last week and wrote it off... fair. Come back and tell us if it's any better. If you haven't looked yet, now's a better time than eight days ago.

Built a feedback platform for founders. 208 users in, now testing something new and want honest opinions.

Two weeks ago I dropped a comment in a thread about getting early feedback on SaaS products. 208 founders so far and 60% who listed their apps on CanaryLaunch, a platform where founders review each other's apps and leave structured, specific feedback before public launch. More than 50% got reviews in first 36 hours!

Feedback is still the core. That has not changed.

But I kept noticing the same problem. A founder would get great feedback, fix the issues, and then ask: okay, now what? How do I actually get users?

So I built a Discovery module as an experiment alongside the feedback layer.

Here is the idea. We took the all the published apps on the platform and manually curated them into 20 real-world workflows. Things like "Launch a SaaS Product", "Master Personal Finance", "Scale B2B Sales". Each workflow is a sequence of steps a real user goes through to solve a specific problem, and each step is filled by an app that belongs there. Not paid placement. Not an algorithm. Hand-picked.

The goal is that a visitor does not browse a random list. They land on the workflow that matches the problem they are trying to solve right now, and they discover the right tools in the right order. Founders get feedback AND a place where users find them in context.

Both things in one platform. That is the bet.

We are still testing it. It might be wrong. While we are happy with the response our initial phase - Discovery is a completely different problem from feedback and I am not sure we can do both well. We plan to curate and add new workflows weekly!

So I am genuinely asking: if you had a SaaS and you listed it here, would a curated workflow placement actually matter to you? Or is the feedback alone the reason you would show up?

Browse the workflows here: https://canarylaunch.com/apps

Honest takes only. This community is good at those.

Finally built my own personal website. Asking for feedback - how well is it understandable to you?

I'm a CEO of a platform for building AI digital twins for coaches and experts. I decided to do my personal page, where I offer personal VIP service for free for big coaches. Can you please read through the website a little bit and tell me if it's easy to understand what this is about, and it makes it click for you? Do you feel like you understand why it makes sense to create an AI digital twin for yourself? Or is it too abstract concept?
My main goal here is to figure out how much time it takes you to understand what I'm doing - is it short enough so that you keep reading, or are you lost and would likely close the page? It's a pretty new topic, so it might not be very clear from the get go.
Happy for any kind of feedback or ideas for improvement!

I’d really appreciate brutally honest feedback on my site, especially the product page. That’s where most of my Meta ad traffic lands, so I care much more about conversion feedback than general homepage opinions. If something feels off, low trust, confusing, weak, too salesy, or just not convincing enough to buy, please say it directly. https://mixxyy.de/products/tragbarer-mixer

Me and my friend (both high school students) built and run a full-stack portal site. Planning to add English support—any feedback?

Hi Reddit!

My friend and I are high school students from Japan, and the two of us have been developing and managing a portal site called "Tsurukame Portal" (tsurukamezan.net) together—from full-stack coding to server management.

It's currently only in Japanese, but we are planning to localize it into English to bring it to a global audience. Since the English version isn't live yet, we would love to get your feedback on the overall UI/UX and concept! (Feel free to use your browser's auto-translate to check it out!)

Key features of our site:

  • News Summaries & Quizzes: Keeping track of interesting trends and interactive features.
  • SciCirc (Science Circuit): This section is rapidly evolving! It’s a dedicated educational tech-blog where we break down not only science, chemistry, and toxicology, but also Junior High and High School Mathematics and English in an easy-to-understand way.

We are managing everything from the backend to the server infrastructure by ourselves as a small student team. We'd love to know:

  1. What do you think of the layout and concept?
  2. As an English speaker, which features (like SciCirc) would you be most interested in if it were translated?

Any advice, criticism, or ideas for localization would be awesome. Thanks!

If you'd like to support our project or chat with us, please join our Discord server!

Awwwards‑worthy Website? Honest feedback for my Website again wanted

Hey everyone,

I’m building my portfolio as a junior creative developer and I’m aiming for a more Awwwards-worthy direction.

You can check it out here: View my portfolio →

The individual project pages are not fully finished yet, but I’d already love some feedback on the overall direction.

What I’d especially like to know:

  • Do you enjoy scrolling through my website?
  • Does the site feel distinctive, or does it still feel too template-like?
  • Is my positioning as a creative developer clear?
  • Do you understand and notice the Figma-leaning direction?
  • Where does the site lose clarity, usability, or visual impact, aside from the navbar?

Open to honest feedback.

I’m also open to project suggestions that could make my Selected Work section stronger from a quality perspective.

Cheers

I'm 32 and pretty introverted. For most of my 20s I called the quiet thing a personality trait and moved on. Around 30 it stopped holding up. I was skipping stuff I actually wanted (speaking up at work, posting my writing, asking people to hang out) and just calling it being introverted.

The confidence apps I tried didn't help. Most are rebranded journaling. The "do one scary thing every day" stuff burned me out in a week.

What worked was small. Embarrassingly small. "Say good morning to the barista." "Ask one question in the meeting." I kept a list, then notes, then built a simple iOS app because notes got annoying.

One challenge a day across six categories: social skills, career, public speaking, networking, self-expression, comfort zone. Each has a clear ask and a one-line tip.

Few honest surprises after using it for ~8 months:

  • Tiny challenges did the most work. The big push days were forgettable.
  • Self-expression challenges were the hardest and the highest leverage.

Free tier has the daily challenge, streak, and widget. Pro unlocks unlimited skips and the full library. iOS only, on device, no account.

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/introvert-daily-courage/id6762940412

Would love feedback on the categories or anything that feels off.

Feedback on my new website

Please note, I am not trying to advertise anything.

Just want suggestions/feedback on how to improve the look and feel of the website I just made along with my friend. This took a couple of weeks to make (after 6 months of procrastination). Really wanted to give it the hanabi/jp theme to it. Have already decided a few more things that we can add, but want to understand if anything in the current implementation feels off. Thanks!

Would like to know your suggestion and ideas to improve this web application

Building an LMS focused on reducing the chaos students deal with during exam prep.

Instead of juggling Telegram PDFs, Google Drive folders, WhatsApp assignments, random test portals, and YouTube lectures — everything stays in one place: • Notes

• Lectures

• Assignments

• Worksheets

• Test series

One thing I’m focusing heavily on is evaluated answer scripts reviewed by real experienced teachers instead of just instant MCQ scoring.

Currently working on adding weekly contests + leaderboards so students can benchmark themselves consistently and stay competitive.

Still a work in progress, but trying to build something students would actually use daily instead of another “content dumping” platform.

Would genuinely love feedback from students/educators here: What’s the one thing existing LMS platforms still get wrong?
