Value props

32Poor

Title, subtitle, hero — do they sell the product's true value?

Working

  • Real stories prove the community is alive
  • Tags and vote counts show topical depth
  • Zero marketing fluff or abstraction

Could improve

  • No headline states what Lobsters is
  • No line on invite-only community value
  • Newcomers must infer purpose from content

CTA

48Poor

Copy, size, verb, cost-feel — does the primary CTA earn the click?

Problems
