One-page sites that cost less than lunch
Carrd builds the single page most people actually need: a bio, a link list, a launch page, a form that collects email addresses. Three sites are free and Pro is priced by the year rather than the month, which is why it keeps winning link-in-bio arguments on price alone. A site that wants a blog or a shop outgrows it fast.
Our note
The cheapest way to stop handing out a social profile as though it were a home page. If Linktree's monthly bill is the one you keep meaning to cancel, this is the version you own.
Only on this side
Landing pages with the testing built in
Leadpages has been doing conversion pages long enough that the templates are tuned rather than pretty, and A/B testing is included instead of sold as an upgrade. Heatmaps and traffic routing arrive at the higher tiers. The plan ladder is confusing, because two products with separate names share the same pricing page.
Ratings are the average of reviews readers left. The facts are stated by each tool’s own listing and are not verified by CloutStack. How we make money.
