Updated: October 6th, 2024

Let’s face it: creating a product is easy; creating a product that sells is the real challenge.

Many startups have great-looking websites but lack a highly converting landing page. A landing page builder does just that; it builds landing pages for you.

A landing page builder business is a service that helps businesses and individuals create professional-looking web pages designed to convert visitors into customers or leads.

To start this business on a budget, you’ll need basic web development skills and knowledge of popular website-building platforms like WordPress, Wix, or Squarespace.

Unbounce, a popular landing page tool, makes nearly $26M per year.

In this list, you'll find real-world landing page builder success stories and very profitable examples of starting a landing page builder that makes money.

2. Carrd ($1.2M/year)

Carrd is a sleek, intuitive one-page website builder designed with simplicity and speed in mind. It caters to a variety of needs, from personal profiles to landing pages, all while offering a seamless user experience. Unlike other site builders that aim for complexity, Carrd focuses on the essentials, allowing users to create beautiful sites within minutes, with no prior signup required.

AJ got the idea for Carrd out of a desire to branch out from his routine work of designing and coding website templates. This routine work had become too easy and almost monotonous, prompting him to seek a new challenge that would leverage his extensive skills in a fresh way.

He realized that while he was looking for something different to do, he still wanted to stay close to his core expertise in web design and development. He wanted to build for a simple idea that could serve a broad audience.

This drive to innovate within his domain, coupled with his recognition of users' desires for simplicity and efficiency in web building tools, spurred him to develop Carrd.
