The answer, as recorded

Here's what I'd actually recommend, roughly in the order I'd suggest trying them: **1. Leadpages - the default pick for most small businesses.** Drag-and-drop, hundreds of conversion-tested templates, built-in payments and lead capture, and it's the cheapest of the "serious" tools at ~$49/mo Standard, ~$99/mo Pro. Critically, it doesn't meter traffic - Unbounce and Instapage both cap monthly visitors, Leadpages gives unlimited traffic and leads on every plan. If you're running a local service business, a course, or a small e-commerce brand, start here. **2. Carrd - if you need one page live today for almost nothing.** ~$19/*year* for the pro tier. No CRM, no A/B testing, no real analytics - but for a single-product page, a "coming soon," a link hub, or validating an idea, nothing else comes close on price or speed. **3. Unbounce - if you're spending real money on ads.** Its differentiator is Smart Traffic (auto-routes visitors to whichever variant converts them best) plus unlimited A/B testing and dynamic text replacement that matches your page headline to the ad keyword. Starts around $74-99/mo. Only worth it once ad spend is high enough that a few points of conversion lift pays the subscription. **4. Wix (incl. Wix Studio) - if the landing page should live alongside a real website.** The AI builder will generate a full page from a text description, and you get booking, e-commerce, and blogging in the same account. Less conversion-optimization depth than Unbounce, far more general-purpose. **5. Wishpond - if you want the page *and* the follow-up in one tool.** Landing pages wired directly into email, SMS, and automated nudges. Good when you don't already have a CRM and don't want to stitch three tools together. **6. Instapage - only for teams at scale.** $99-299/mo, with heatmaps, unlimited A/B testing, and strong personalization. Genuinely excellent, but it's built for agencies and marketing teams running many campaigns; it's overkill and overpriced for a typical small business. **Two honorable mentions:** if you already pay for HubSpot, Mailchimp, or Squarespace, their built-in landing page tools are probably good enough - don't add a sixth subscription. And if you're on Shopify, use a Shopify page app rather than an external builder, so the checkout stays native. **My shortest advice:** Carrd if it's one page and a weekend; Leadpages if it's your business's lead engine; Unbounce once you're spending enough on ads to optimize.
