Value props

10Poor

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

Working

  • Clean, distraction-free canvas
  • Memorable, distinctive logo mark

Could improve

  • No headline or value claim at all
  • Nothing says what the product does
  • Logo decorates instead of demonstrates

CTA

15Poor

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

Problems

  • no headline or product context
  • logo-only splash, nothing clickable

Mobile web

22Poor

The phone experience as a first-class citizen.

Mobile web annotations on the mobile capture12
  1. Logomark hero — The fold's only content is a logo with no headline, copy, or tappable CTA — nothing converts.
  2. RIVERBANK wordmark — Tiny letterspaced text at the bottom edge is the only words on the page and gives no value statement or action.

Information hierarchy

25Poor

Does the design help or inhibit what the page is trying to say?

Information hierarchy annotations on the desktop capture12
  1. Logo mark only — The fold's sole element is an unlabeled logo with no headline, value prop, or CTA to act on.
  2. RIVERBANK wordmark — The only text on the page is a tiny low-contrast wordmark tucked in the bottom-right corner, outside the scan path.
