Make Content First, Design Second
Run clear, focused landing pages because content matters most and design supports it.
Use a simple one-page site builder if needed; there is no excuse for a messy landing page in 2024.

Fix Accessibility First
Prioritize ADA accessibility on landing pages by checking color contrast and keyboard navigation.
Use contrast checkers and aim for a 4.5:1 ratio and verify keyboard usability.
volunteer_activism ADVICE
Make Pages Load Under 3s
Target a page load time of three seconds or less and run Lighthouse or PageSpeed Insights.
Ask devs to lazy-load scripts and enable CDN image compression (WebP) to cut seconds off load time.
