    Hello all

    I have an expiring domains service based on a sales letter on the root domain.

    We are working to relaunch the software and the whole website.

    I want to know what performs better:
    The same sales letter style on the root domain or maybe a more professional look e.g a CMS based layout.

    I know that most of my customers and visitiors are skilled in more or less in internet marketing. I THINK they don't want to read a whole sales letter the only need facts.

    Split tests is not really an option this would be way to much work instead of testing headlines or something ;)

    Does anyone have experience and can give me some advice?

    Uwe

    Videos. Make a video of/about the product and what it did for you/examples of successes etc.

    I have done one for the actual version and planing to do this for relaunch.
    But that doesn't solve my problem :(

    IMO, only use a CMS when your trying to sell a CMS.

    Otherwise - Video redirecting to sales letter.

    cms will SEO and PERFORM better, if you do content on it. But simply a one page cms vs. a landing page, all things equal, no difference.
