Gather this context (ask if not provided):
Follow these core principles. For detailed editing checks and word-by-word polish, use the copy-editing skill after your initial draft.
Simple over complex — Use everyday words. "Use" instead of "utilize," "help" instead of "facilitate."
Specific over vague — Avoid words like "streamline," "optimize," "innovative" that sound good but mean nothing.
Active over passive — "We generate reports" not "Reports are generated."
Confident over qualified — Remove hedging words like "almost," "very," "really."
Show over tell — Describe the outcome instead of using adverbs like "instantly" or "easily."
Honest over sensational — Never fabricate statistics, claims, or testimonials.
Before finalizing, scan for:

A great landing page isn't just a list of features. Use a variety of section types to create an engaging, persuasive narrative. Mix and match from these:
How It Works (Numbered Steps) Walk users through the process in 3-4 clear steps. Reduces perceived complexity and shows the path to value.
Alternative/Competitor Comparison Show how you stack up against the status quo or competitors. Tables, side-by-side comparisons, or "Unlike X, we..." sections.
Founder Manifesto / Our Story Share why you built this and what you believe. Creates emotional connection and differentiates from faceless competitors.
Testimonials Customer quotes with names, photos, and specific results. Multiple formats: quote cards, video testimonials, tweet embeds.
Case Studies Deeper stories of customer success. Problem → Solution → Results format with specific metrics.
Use Cases Show different ways the product is used. Helps visitors self-identify: "This is for people like me."
Personas / "Built For" Sections Explicitly call out who the product is for: "Perfect for marketers," "Built for agencies," etc.
Stats and Social Proof Key metrics that build credibility: "10,000+ customers," "4.9/5 rating," "$2M saved for customers."
Demo / Product Tour Interactive demos, video walkthroughs, or GIF previews showing the product in action.
FAQ Section Address common objections and questions. Good for SEO and reducing support burden.
Integrations / Partners Show what tools you connect with. Logos build credibility and answer "Will this work with my stack?"
Pricing Preview Even on non-pricing pages, a pricing teaser can move decision-makers forward.
Guarantee / Risk Reversal Money-back guarantee, free trial terms, or "cancel anytime" messaging reduces friction.
For a landing page, aim for variety. Don't just stack features:
