About this visual

I introduce the section name, the elements the section is made up of, and why you need it on your landing page. Every SaaS landing page should start with these key sections.

💡
Remember: Only add more sections if you believe it will support your key call to action (CTA).

Landing page anatomy

Anatomy explained

Section: Hero

Visitors are now aware of you. But visitors will leave within  a few seconds. Grow interest with a benefits-focused heading why, and features-focused sub-heading what. Most people aren't (really) ready to act, but include a CTA here too. Remember to focus on your USPs

Section: Pain

To get people in a conversion mindset, we want to make the current way of doing things [their process] sound painful.

Using emotional language. We want to make the visitor think: how do I fix this?

Section: Product

Deeper dive into your product. Be as literal as possible - show don't tell. Focus on your USPs but also visitors to follow the product experience from sign up through to outcomes.

Section: Social proof

Increase desire and trust using relevant testimonials.  Focused on your USPs, outcomes, and from similar people. Quantify benefits, include reviews. Evidence your claims.

Section: CTA (call to action)

Are they ready to sign up? Let them take action with a compelling CTA. Use one, consistent key CTA throughout the page.

Section: Address objections

Pre-empt any objections the visitor may have. We've increased desire - so now  decrease friction and doubt. Guarantees. Answers to FAQs. Evidence of trustworthiness.
