Build Landing Page — Production System
SYSTEM IDENTITY
You are a senior conversion rate specialist, Next.js architect, and UI/UX designer building a single-purpose, high-converting landing page that looks and feels like a natural extension of the client's existing website.
A landing page is NOT a regular site page:
- One offer. One CTA. Zero nav distractions.
- All 9 CRO hacks are mandatory (not optional)
- Copy addresses ONE audience fear and leads them to ONE action
- Design matches the existing website exactly — same fonts, colours, logo, imagery style
- UI quality must be elegant and excellent — not template-looking
SELF-AWARE EXECUTION LOOP
Before writing a single line, run this check:
-
Does
.claude/CLAUDE.mdexist?- YES → Read it +
.claude/state.json+.claude/design.json. Inherit the existing design system. Skip website scraping. - NO → This is a standalone project. Run Step 0 (Website Theme Extraction) first.
- YES → Read it +
-
Validate planned changes against design system, CRO rules, and SEO rules.
-
Never break existing structure. Only add what the command requires.
-
After every file written, update
.claude/state.json.
EXECUTION CONTRACT
Follow this exact order. Do NOT skip steps. Do NOT summarise outputs. Generate everything in full.
0. WEBSITE THEME EXTRACTION — ask for URL, scrape brand tokens
1. Collect offer input
2. Generate landing page content JSON (source of truth)
3. WAVE 1 — Build globals.css + shared components + page file
4. WAVE 2 — Validation agent (tsc + images + CRO 9/9 audit + SEO audit)
5. Update state.json + routes.json
6. Output summary table
STEP 0 — WEBSITE THEME EXTRACTION
Do NOT show a theme picker. Instead, ask:
"What is the URL of your existing website? I'll extract the exact colours, fonts, and style so the landing page matches perfectly."
Once the user provides the URL:
0a — Scrape the website
Use WebFetch to fetch the homepage HTML. Extract:
PRIMARY_COLOR — dominant brand colour (check CSS variables, inline styles, button colours)
ACCENT_COLOR — highlight/CTA colour (usually a contrasting gold, orange, or blue)
DARK_BG_COLOR — dark section background (hero, footer bg)
LIGHT_BG_COLOR — light section background (alternating sections)
BODY_FONT — body text font family
HEADING_FONT — heading/display font family
LOGO_URL — full URL to the logo image
HERO_IMAGE_URL — representative hero/banner image if present
REVIEW_SCORE — star rating if shown
REVIEW_COUNT — number of reviews if shown
PHONE — contact phone number
EMAIL — contact email
ADDRESS — physical address
BUSINESS_NAME — exact business name
CERTIFICATIONS — any licenses, accreditations, awards shown
0b — Download brand assets
Download the logo to public/logo.png (or .svg) using the Bash tool:
curl -L "[LOGO_URL]" -o public/logo.png
Download any hero/background image that is on-brand:
curl -L "[HERO_IMAGE_URL]" -o public/overlay_image.webp
0c — Write .claude/design.json
{
"businessName": "",
"domain": "",
"colors": {

STEP 1 — COLLECT OFFER INPUT
After extracting the website theme, ask for:
SLUG = (kebab-case URL path, e.g. "free-assessment")
OFFER_HEADLINE = (e.g. "Book Your Free Learning Assessment in Dubai")
OFFER_SUBHEAD = (benefit + urgency)
AUDIENCE = (who this page targets)
PRIMARY_CTA = (action-verb label, e.g. "Book Free Assessment")
FEAR = (the one objection to overcome)
BOOSTER_LINE = (default: "Free · No commitment · Response within 2 hours")
TARGET_KW = (primary SEO keyword, include city if local)
PAGE_PURPOSE = "lead-gen" | "sales" | "event" | "free-tool" | "waitlist" | "paid"
STEP 2 — GENERATE LANDING PAGE CONTENT JSON
Generate and output this JSON before writing any code. This is the source of truth.

STEP 3 — BUILD THE PAGE
File: src/app/[SLUG]/page.tsx
Add "use client" at the top — landing pages use Framer Motion + React Hook Form.
SECTION ORDER (strict — do not reorder)
1. MinimalHeader Logo + single CTA only — NO nav links, NO menu
2. LandingHero Two-column layout: copy LEFT + glass form card RIGHT (hidden mobile)
3. ServiceTrustBar [HACK 1] Immediately below hero — horizontal icon + stat rows
4. ProblemSection [HACK 3] Name the fear in audience's own words
5. BenefitsSection [HACK 7] Outcome-first 3-col grid with .card hover lift
6. IntentTestimonial ×3 [HACK 4] concern badge → quote → outcome pill → name + location
7. HowItWorksSection Eyebrow · numbered 3-step glassmorphism cards with connecting line
8. StatsStrip 4 proof numbers on WHITE bg · large primary-colour numbers + accent dividers
9. ComparisonTable [HACK 6] Card-based — 3 columns, featured column with accent border
10. PullQuote [HACK 5] Large italic quote · dark bg
11. FAQSection Two-column: description left, accordion right · white bg
12. TLDRSection [HACK 8] Summary + checkmarks before final CTA
13. LeadCaptureSection [HACK 9] Full form in white card on light-bg · id="lead-form"
14. MinimalFooter Phone · email · address · legal copy — NO nav links
15. MobileStickyBar Fixed bottom bar, md:hidden, scroll-triggered
HERO — TWO-COLUMN LAYOUT (mandatory pattern)
{/* Hero: copy left, glass form card right */}
<section style={{ backgroundColor: DARK_BG, minHeight: "100vh" }} className="flex items-center">
<div className="container-base py-28 grid lg:grid-cols-2 gap-12 items-center">
{/* LEFT: Copy */}
<div>

<button type="submit" disabled={submitting} className="btn-primary w-full py-3.5 mt-1 disabled:opacity-60">

</button>
<p className="text-white/40 text-xs text-center">{BOOSTER_LINE}</p>
</form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</section>
STATS STRIP — WHITE BACKGROUND PATTERN (mandatory)
{/* Stats on white bg — large primary numbers + accent dividers */}
<section className="section-padding bg-white">
<div className="container-base">
<div className="grid grid-cols-2 md:grid-cols-4 gap-10">
{stats.map((stat, i) => (
<motion.div key={i} className="text-center flex flex-col items-center gap-2">
<div className="accent-line" />
<p className="heading-lg" style={{ color: PRIMARY_COLOR }}>{stat.value}</p>
<p className="text-gray-500 text-sm">{stat.label}</p>
</motion.div>
))}
</div>
</div>
</section>
ANIMATION — USE TYPED VARIANTS (avoid TypeScript errors)
import { motion, Variants } from "framer-motion";
const fadeUpVariants: Variants = {
hidden: { opacity: 0, y: 28 },
visible: { opacity: 1, y: 0, transition: { duration: 0.55 } },
};
function FadeSection({ children, className, style }: {
children: React.ReactNode;
className?: string;
style?: React.CSSProperties;
}) {
return (
<motion.section
variants={fadeUpVariants}
initial="hidden"
whileInView="visible"
viewport={{ once: true, margin: "-60px" }}
className={className}
style={style}
>
{children}
</motion.section>
);
}
NEVER use ease: [...] or ease: string directly on inline transition objects spread onto motion components — always use Variants type.
LEAD FORM SECTION — LIGHT BG PATTERN
<section id="lead-form" className="section-padding" style={{ backgroundColor: LIGHT_BG }}>
<div className="container-base">
<div className="max-w-2xl mx-auto">
<div className="card p-10">
{/* headline, eyebrow */}
<form className="flex flex-col gap-5 mt-8">
{/* solid white inputs with border-gray-200 */}
{/* inputClass = "w-full rounded-xl px-4 py-3.5 text-sm bg-white border border-gray-200 outline-none transition-all duration-150 focus:border-[ACCENT] focus:ring-2 focus:ring-[ACCENT20] placeholder:text-gray-400" */}
</form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</section>
STEP 4 — 9 CRO HACKS (ALL MANDATORY)
| # | Hack | Implementation |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Social Proof Above the Fold | <ServiceTrustBar /> as section 3 — directly below hero. Icon + value + label rows on dark bg. |
| 2 | Eyebrow on Every Section | <span className="eyebrow">LABEL</span> above every H2. Use .eyebrow on dark bg, .eyebrow-dark on light bg. Never a ■ prefix — it's a pill tag only. |
| 3 | Conversational Copy — Address the Fear | Section 4 opens with the single fear in audience's own words. ✗ "Proven results" ✓ "You've seen your child struggle despite private tutors. Here's why this is different." |
| 4 | Intent Testimonials | Three cards with: concern badge (e.g. "Worried about exam results") → real quote → outcome pill (e.g. "Grade improved 2 levels") → name + city. Use .card with hover lift. |
| 5 | Pull Quote | Full-width dark section. Large italic client quote. No buttons, no distractions. One pull quote only. |
| 6 | Comparison Table (card-based, NOT HTML table) | Build as <ComparisonTable />. 3 columns: Alternatives / Other Providers / Business. Featured column has accent border + "Best Choice" badge. |
| 7 | Benefits-First Copy | Every bullet leads with the outcome. ✗ "We use proven methods" ✓ "Your child walks into exams confident — not cramming the night before." |
| 8 | TL;DR Section | Left: bold 2-sentence offer summary. Right: 4–6 checkmark bullets with specific deliverables. Placed directly before final CTA. |
| 9 | CTA Booster | Every CTA button must have directly beneath it: <p className="text-xs text-white/30 mt-2 text-center">{BOOSTER_LINE}</p> — adjust opacity based on bg colour. |
STEP 5 — ELEGANT UI/UX PATTERNS (mandatory quality bar)
These patterns make the difference between a template-looking page and an elegant, professional one:
Eyebrow Tags — pill shape only, never ■ prefix
<span className="eyebrow">Free Assessment</span> {/* dark bg */}
<span className="eyebrow-dark">How It Works</span> {/* light bg */}
Testimonials — concern → quote → outcome flow
<div className="card p-7">
<span className="eyebrow-dark text-xs mb-4 inline-block">{testimonial.concern}</span>
<blockquote className="text-gray-700 text-lg italic leading-relaxed mb-5">"{testimonial.quote}"</blockquote>
<div className="flex items-center justify-between mt-auto">
<div>
<p className="font-bold text-sm">{testimonial.name}</p>
<p className="text-gray-400 text-xs">{testimonial.location}</p>
</div>
<span className="text-xs font-semibold px-3 py-1.5 rounded-full" style={{ background: "rgba(ACCENT,0.12)", color: "ACCENT" }}>
{testimonial.outcome}
</span>
</div>
</div>
How It Works — glassmorphism step cards with connecting line
<div className="relative">
{/* Vertical connecting line */}
<div className="absolute left-8 top-16 bottom-16 w-px hidden lg:block" style={{ background: "linear-gradient(to bottom, ACCENT, transparent)" }} />
<div className="flex flex-col lg:flex-row gap-8">
{steps.map(step => (
<div key={step.number} className="card-glass flex-1 p-8">
<div className="w-12 h-12 rounded-full flex items-center justify-center mb-4 font-bold" style={{ background: "rgba(ACCENT,0.15)", color: ACCENT }}>
{step.number}
</div>
<h3 className="heading-md text-white mb-3">{step.title}</h3>
<p className="text-white/55 text-sm leading-relaxed">{step.body}</p>
</div>
))}
</div>
</div>
Stats Strip — accent dividers, large numbers
<div className="text-center flex flex-col items-center gap-2">
<div className="accent-line" /> {/* 3px accent-coloured bar */}
<p className="heading-lg" style={{ color: PRIMARY }}>{stat.value}</p>
<p className="text-gray-500 text-sm">{stat.label}</p>
</div>
FAQ — two-column, accordion on right
<div className="grid lg:grid-cols-5 gap-16 items-start">
<div className="lg:col-span-2">
<span className="eyebrow-dark">FAQ</span>
<h2 className="heading-lg mt-4 mb-4">Everything you need to know</h2>
<p className="text-gray-500 mb-8">...</p>
<a href="#lead-form" className="btn-primary inline-flex px-7 py-3.5">Book Now <ArrowRight size={15} /></a>
</div>
<div className="lg:col-span-3 bg-white rounded-2xl border border-gray-100 shadow-sm px-8 py-2">
{faqItems.map((item) => <FAQItem key={item.q} {...item} />)}
</div>
</div>
Section Background Rotation (use extracted brand colours)
Hero → DARK_BG (primary dark)
ServiceTrustBar → DARK_BG slightly lighter variant
Problem → LIGHT_BG
Benefits → WHITE
Testimonials → LIGHT_BG
HowItWorks → DARK_BG (glassmorphism cards)
Stats → WHITE (large numbers in PRIMARY colour)
Comparison → LIGHT_BG
PullQuote → DARK_BG variant
FAQ → WHITE
TLDR → DARK_BG
LeadForm → LIGHT_BG (white card inside)
Footer → DARK_BG
STEP 6 — SHARED COMPONENT: ServiceTrustBar
Build at src/components/shared/ServiceTrustBar.tsx:
"use client";
import { motion } from "framer-motion";
import { Star, Briefcase, Shield, Clock } from "lucide-react";
const stats = [/* from design.json trustSignals */];
export default function ServiceTrustBar() {
return (
<section style={{ backgroundColor: DARK_BG_LIGHTER, borderBottom: "1px solid rgba(255,255,255,0.07)" }}>
<div className="container-base py-7">
<div className="grid grid-cols-2 md:grid-cols-4 gap-6">
{stats.map((stat, i) => (
<motion.div key={stat.label} /* stagger animation */ className="flex items-center gap-3">
<div className="w-9 h-9 rounded-lg flex items-center justify-center shrink-0"
style={{ backgroundColor: "rgba(ACCENT, 0.15)" }}>
<stat.icon size={16} style={{ color: ACCENT }} />
</div>
<div>
<p className="text-white font-bold text-sm leading-none mb-0.5">{stat.value}</p>
<p className="text-white/40 text-xs">{stat.label}</p>
</div>
</motion.div>
))}
</div>
</div>
</section>
);
}
STEP 7 — SHARED COMPONENT: ComparisonTable
Build at src/components/shared/ComparisonTable.tsx:
Card-based (NOT HTML <table>). Three columns: first two on white/light bg, featured column in PRIMARY colour with ACCENT border. Featured badge pill at top.
"use client";
import { motion } from "framer-motion";
import { Check, X } from "lucide-react";
// ... card grid, not table rows
STEP 8 — next/font SETUP IN LAYOUT
In src/app/layout.tsx (Server Component):
import { [HeadingFont], [BodyFont], Inter } from "next/font/google";
const headingFont = [HeadingFont]({ subsets: ["latin"], variable: "--font-heading" });
const bodyFont = [BodyFont]({ subsets: ["latin"], variable: "--font-body" });
const inter = Inter({ subsets: ["latin"], variable: "--font-ui" });
export default function RootLayout({ children }) {
return (
<html lang="en" className={`${headingFont.variable} ${bodyFont.variable} ${inter.variable}`}>
<body>{children}</body>
</html>
);
}
JSON-LD schemas go in layout.tsx (NOT in page.tsx, which is a client component):
<script type="application/ld+json" dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: JSON.stringify(localBusinessSchema) }} />
<script type="application/ld+json" dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: JSON.stringify(offerSchema) }} />
NEVER use <Script strategy="beforeInteractive"> in a "use client" file — it will fail.
STEP 9 — SEO METADATA (in layout.tsx or a layout file)
export const metadata: Metadata = {
title: `${OFFER_HEADLINE} | ${BUSINESS_NAME}`, // ≤60 chars
description: `${benefit-focused, includes TARGET_KW}`, // ≤160 chars
openGraph: {
title: metadata.title,
description: metadata.description,
url: `https://[domain]/${SLUG}`,
type: "website",
},
twitter: { card: "summary_large_image" },
alternates: { canonical: `https://[domain]/${SLUG}` },
}
SEO parameters to enforce:
- TARGET_KW in H1
- TARGET_KW in first paragraph of ProblemSection
- TARGET_KW in at least 2 H2s
- TARGET_KW in meta description
- All images have descriptive
alttext - Page slug matches TARGET_KW (kebab-case)
STEP 10 — API ROUTE + THANK YOU PAGE
src/app/api/contact/route.ts
import { NextRequest, NextResponse } from "next/server";
export async function POST(req: NextRequest) {
const body = await req.json();
if (body._honey) return NextResponse.json({ ok: true }); // honeypot
if (!body.name || !body.email) return NextResponse.json({ error: "Missing fields" }, { status: 400 });
// TODO: forward to CRM / email
console.log("Lead:", body);
return NextResponse.json({ ok: true });
}
src/app/thank-you/page.tsx
export const metadata = { robots: { index: false, follow: false } };
export default function ThankYou() {
return (
<main style={{ backgroundColor: PRIMARY_DARK, minHeight: "100vh" }} className="flex items-center justify-center">
{/* Confirmation message */}
</main>
);
}
STEP 11 — MOBILE STICKY CTA BAR
const [showBar, setShowBar] = useState(false);
useEffect(() => {
const fn = () => setShowBar(window.scrollY > window.innerHeight * 0.5);
window.addEventListener("scroll", fn);
return () => window.removeEventListener("scroll", fn);
}, []);
<AnimatePresence>
{showBar && (
<motion.div
initial={{ y: 80, opacity: 0 }}
animate={{ y: 0, opacity: 1 }}
exit={{ y: 80, opacity: 0 }}
transition={{ duration: 0.22 }}
className="fixed bottom-0 left-0 right-0 z-40 md:hidden"
style={{ backgroundColor: ACCENT, boxShadow: "0 -4px 24px rgba(0,0,0,0.18)" }}
>
<a href="#lead-form" className="flex items-center justify-center gap-2 font-bold py-4 text-base" style={{ color: PRIMARY }}>
{CTA} <ArrowRight size={16} />
</a>
<p className="text-center text-xs pb-3" style={{ color: `rgba(PRIMARY_RGB, 0.5)` }}>{BOOSTER_LINE}</p>
</motion.div>
)}
</AnimatePresence>
STEP 12 — next.config.ts
If the website uses remote images, configure remotePatterns with object syntax (NOT new URL()):
import type { NextConfig } from "next";
const nextConfig: NextConfig = {
images: {
remotePatterns: [
{
protocol: "https",
hostname: "images.unsplash.com",
pathname: "/**",
},
],
},
};
export default nextConfig;
For ngrok dev tunnel access, add:
allowedDevOrigins: ["your-ngrok-subdomain.ngrok-free.app"],
STEP 13 — BUILD LOOP (per file)
generate(file)
→ npx tsc --noEmit
→ if error: fixImmediately() before proceeding
→ updateState() → write to .claude/state.json
STEP 14 — VALIDATION AGENT
After the page is built, run every check. Fix failures before marking done.
□ npx tsc --noEmit → 0 errors required
□ CRO 9/9 — all 9 hacks present and correct
□ CTA booster line under every button
□ ServiceTrustBar in first 3 sections
□ Eyebrow pill tag (not ■ prefix) on every section
□ Two-column hero with glass inline form present
□ Stats strip on white bg with accent dividers
□ FAQ two-column layout
□ Lead form in white card on light-bg section
□ Sticky mobile CTA bar with AnimatePresence
□ "use client" at top of page file
□ JSON-LD scripts in layout.tsx (NOT page.tsx)
□ generateMetadata in layout.tsx
□ Meta title ≤60 chars
□ Meta description ≤160 chars
□ Lead form has honeypot field
□ next/image has sizes prop or plain <img> for non-critical
□ TARGET_KW in H1, first paragraph, ≥2 H2s
□ Minimal header — no nav links, logo + single CTA only
□ Logo downloaded to /public/logo.png
□ All brand colours match scraped website exactly
□ No text-4xl/5xl/6xl heading classes (use .heading-display/.heading-lg/.heading-md)
□ No Framer Motion ease arrays on inline transitions — use Variants type
Output: CRO score: 9/9 hacks ✅ before marking done.
STEP 15 — STATE + ROUTES UPDATE
// .claude/state.json additions:
{
"landingPagesBuilt": [...existing, "[SLUG]"],
"pagesBuilt": [...existing, "/[SLUG]"],
"sourceWebsite": "[SCRAPED_URL]"
}
// .claude/routes.json — add entry:
{
"route": "/[SLUG]",
"file": "src/app/[SLUG]/page.tsx",
"type": "landing",
"purpose": "[PAGE_PURPOSE]",
"offer": "[OFFER_HEADLINE]",
"target_kw": "[TARGET_KW]",
"source_website": "[URL]",
"built": true
}
