A couple of suggestions for the landing page:

1) Explain what the product is, at the top of the page.

2) Remove the distracting animated background.

3) Switch out the graphic for "Shop" from a woman holding bags to a non-gendered icon. The page currently has three men working and one woman shopping. Some may think it portrays sexist attitudes.



btw, why do you say "woman"? What if that is a person with non-binary gender identity?


Thanks for the feedback. I’m afraid we spent more time on the pages behind the login page and the backend code than the landing page. This is a useful reminder that we have to take more care when designing the new landing page.
