The design of a landing page is hard for sure. But using a design system (like TailwindCSS, daisyUI, etc.) or event templates simplifies things compared to manually writing CSS styles.

But for me writing good meaningful texts is even harder than design. Of course, the design has to be eye-catching, but if visitors doesn't fully understand what your product does from the text, it's a catastrophe. Also, texts should not be too long cause nobody will read them. Thus, I first write the initial text, then simplify it over and over again, Then show to multiple mates to get the feedback and fix parts that they didn't understand. Sometimes remove ambiguous sentences, sometimes add extra explanation.
