Ask HN: Which would be a better splash page?
After receiving some mixed feedback on my previous splash page, I put together another one. I was hoping to get some feedback on it.
Option 1: http://www.mesmira.com (the new one, high-level concept and some explanatory pitch text)
Option 2: http://www.mesmira.com/splash (a screenshot of the actual product with the value proposition as text markers)
Option 3: not good enough. Again!
Any suggestions/feedback would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Aditya
- bayouborne 15y agoHi Aditya - just my opinion, but I like the 2nd one. The only thing I'd change with the 2nd is the visual treatment of the buttons along the top - they seem a little crowded. Slightly tweaked version here: http://www.djconsultants.com/mes2.jpg http://www.djconsultants.com/mes2.jpg
- adityar 15y agoThanks. This is embarrassing but I can't make out any difference in mes2...I'm looking at the buttons (assume that's where the tweaks are). Is there a change in aspect ratio of the buttons?
- bayouborne 15y agoIt's there, but it's not a very big change - perhaps best chalked up to my obsessiveness to white-space..;-) Anyway, 2nd's my vote. Good luck!
- pxtreme75 15y agoVisually I prefer the first. You need to find a way to keep it as visually pleasing as it is while integrating some more info about the actual product. But I would avoid the second screen -- too complex for a newcomer.
- adityar 15y agoThanks for taking the time on this one.
- seb_z_lite 15y agoI also find the second one too crowded for a splash page. It looks more like a page that I would see as an introduction. A More in-depth exploration of the site.(with animation and fireworks!!).
- adityar 15y agoThanks for the feedback. Really appreciate it.
