Landing Page Help!!!

Hello STM brotherin,

I am currently venturing into the world of PPV. At this point in my career I've only created direct linking Facebook Ads using photoshop.

Can anybody recommend a guide, tutorial, or resource I can use to learn the essentials in creating bad-ass Landing Pages. I understand the purpose and the philosphy I need the "know how" in order to apply them now

I have basic design skills and experience with Photoshop from designing promo flyers and cd covers as I am a DJ.

All insight is appreciated

I'm currently at the same point.

This guide by Caurmen has been proving very useful. The bottom of the post has a bunch more links.

I certainly can!

First thing: if you're used to Photoshop, get a copy of Adobe Muse. It's a hell of a lot easier than learning to code LPs from scratch, and will work well with your existing design skills.

Places to start would include:

STM Landing Page Index: A list of literally hundreds of real landing pages used in real campaigns to study, draw inspiration from, and in many cases download and use yourself!
Getting Started Guide, Landing Pages section: The very basics, including a basic - but perfectly workable - design. Landing pages don't have to be sophisticated to work well!
iPyxel's Landing Page Tutorials: Tom and his crew have written a lot of great guides to various aspects of landing page creation.

I'd also recommend having a look at my guide to speeding up your landers, but it's a bit more advanced, so get familiar with the basics first.

Sweet!!

I read a post about overcoming a fear of asking "dumb questions" and as I grow in the business I understand more and more the importance of humility

Thanks fellas

I hear ya on that. I've got like 4 or 5 threads in the newbie section. All of them are questions that probably get snickered at by some but all of them get answered helpfully and in a timely manner. This forum rocks!

Dreamweaver helps a LOT for creating LP's.
Find page/template that you like->use httrack to copy->use Dreamweaver to edit it as you like.

Does anyone know if Muse be able to be used in the same manner as Dreamweaver for that?

No, it's not - Muse is a WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get) editor and it exports HTML code - you don't edit the HTML in Muse and similarly you can only open Muse projects, not any old webpage file.

I use several tools - Dreamweaver is quite good especially when it comes to syntax error highlighting. I use Notepad++ as I can deal with the coding without much help. I also use Adobe Edge Code CC for some editing and live editing in Firefox (using the style editor in the web dev tools) can be useful for CSS changes.
