The answer, as recorded

## My picks, in the order I'd actually recommend them **1. Leadpages** - my default recommendation for most small businesses. ~$49/mo (annual) on Standard, no traffic caps on any plan, 200+ templates, and A/B testing without jumping to a premium tier. It's the best balance of price, ease of use, and the lead-capture essentials (forms, pop-ups, alert bars, email integrations). If you don't have a dedicated marketer, start here. **2. Carrd** - if you need one simple page and nothing else. Free tier, and paid is roughly **$19/year** - not per month. Perfect for a one-product launch, a waitlist, a link-in-bio, or a local service page. No CRM, no A/B testing; that's the trade-off. **3. Unbounce** - the upgrade once you're spending real money on ads. Smart Traffic (auto-routes visitors to the variant most likely to convert for them), dynamic text replacement for matching ad keywords, and unlimited A/B testing. Starts ~$74/mo on Build, but A/B testing is gated to the Experiment plan at ~$149/mo, and entry plans have a 20K visitor cap. Only worth it if ad spend justifies squeezing out conversion points. **4. Framer** - if how it looks matters most. Free tier, ~$10/mo paid, genuinely the best-looking output of the bunch plus AI page generation. Great for agencies, design-led brands, SaaS. Weaker on marketing plumbing than Leadpages. **5. Wix (or Wix Studio)** - best if you want your landing pages living inside your actual website rather than as a separate tool. The AI builder will draft a full page from a text description. Studio adds tighter responsive control. Avoids paying for two platforms. **6. Wishpond** - worth a look if your bottleneck is follow-up, not the page. Landing pages wired directly into email, SMS, and automated nurture sequences in one subscription. **7. Webflow** - only if you have a developer or designer on hand. Free to ~$15/mo, total design control plus a CMS, but a real learning curve. Overkill for a few campaign pages. **Skip Instapage** unless you're an enterprise team. It starts at ~$199/mo, A/B testing lives on a ~$299/mo tier, and the entry plan still caps you at 15K visitors. The collaboration and personalization-at-scale features are genuinely strong, but they're not priced for a small business. **Quick heuristic:** one page, tiny budget → Carrd. Steady lead gen → Leadpages. Heavy paid ads → Unbounce. Design is the product → Framer. Already on a site builder → just use Wix.
