Are you thinking of hiring a Landing Page designer? Or maybe you are a web designer yourself and you are wondering how long does it take to design a Landing Page for your clients?
Unfortunately, It’s impossible to give you a straightforward answer because it could take you 1 hour or maybe 20 hours.
It all depends on 2 things:
1.)How big is the Landing Page you are working on?
2.)How complicated is the design of the Landing Page?
Let me explain this for you in detail.
1.) How big is the Landing Page you are working on?
How do we know if the landing page is a big project? Look at the website copy/text.
How many words is the text? The more text a landing page has, the more longer and bigger the landing page will be.
In other words, the bigger the word count for the landing page is, the more time it takes to build and design the landing page.
2.) How complicated is the design of the Landing Page?
You need to understand this, some clients want a professional minimal landing page and some clients want an overwhelming fancy landing page.
Clients that want a fancy website will take way more of your time, like triple or quadruple of your time!!!
A simple design can be built in 3 hours.
A fancy design for the same landing page will take 12+ hours.
It sounds crazy but trust me, I’ve been doing web design since June 2020 and I promise you that this is really how it works *lol*
Summary

More words = more work = more time
Now think about the design, does the client want a fancy design or a simple design?
Simple designs are 3x faster than fancy designs.
Small word count + Simple design = Quick project
Big word count + Fancy design = Long project
Tiny Landing Page: Under 100 words
Small Landing Page: 100- 500 words
Medium Landing Page: 500 – 2000 words
Big Landing Page: 2000+ words

For landing pages or sales pages, there is no ideal length. If you want to rank on Google and other SERP’s, then at least 300 words is ideal. If you don’t care about SEO and you are only worried about conversions, then the word count is totally up to you.
