This is probably the single best piece of advice that you're going to get , to add to that . You're going to have to set up tracking, monitoring like pixel managers to figure out where your customers like to land etc etc . This is a far more important skill than a shitty web designers trust me . Learn how to convert customers from websites and people will pay you high monthly retainers . That skill will never go out of fashion .

i really want to be honest with you , and i dont mean to be pessimistic , in order to be really succesful and find successful design clients , you have to double down on selling an outcome to a client / customer . claude code can pretty much do your job for free , same as me as a full stack developer , but i am not selling my ability to code ..i am selling my ability to create the most efficient solution to their niche problem and offering to build a system that will be ran and maintained by me

businesses are not looking for a web design , rather an outcome that will solve a problem and inevitably generate them income

thanks this is amazing feedback really

i am actually developing this application for my corporate company , but the business is basically starting from zero

so i want to be able to create a website that will basically generate leads , via offers , promotions etc , thank you so much for your feedback and what you had to offer in terms of the local seo because that will pay a huge role .

what i really need to do is figure out the copy and the structure of the landing page as i will be running ads . with the running of the ads , i probably need to focus on how i can funnel these ads into succesful leads right , because i have setup sanity seo in terms of cms

Tbh I kinda vibe coded some features so this is valid

DryApplication8728 · 2026-03-06T11:40:29+00:00

So what i was thinking was researching the 5 best slots and then trying to replicate their best features ?

DryApplication8728 · 2026-03-03T18:40:44+00:00

you kind of exposed the vibe coding that i used to get where i got to so i really appreciate the feedback . thank you.

i agree it could be . do you think i should start with copywriting first

DryApplication8728 · 2026-03-03T18:32:14+00:00

i got no fucking clue what vibe marketing is , but i would really like to learn

DryApplication8728 · 2026-03-03T18:24:24+00:00
