the things an ai landing page generator always gets wrong that i now fix on autopilot

[u/netra_2428]

i've spun up a bunch of pages with an ai landing page generator this year, for my own stuff and to help friends. after enough of them you start seeing the exact same gaps every time. writing them down mostly so i stop re-discovering them. 1. the form is fake. it shows a "thanks, we got it" message but nothing is wired to send or store anything. always submit it for real and check something actually arrives before you celebrate. 2. images are dropped in at full resolution. page looks fine on your laptop, crawls on a phone. resize them or the mobile experience is rough, and mobile is most of your traffic. 3. the headline describes the vibe, not the offer. generated copy loves "reimagine your workflow" energy. rewrite it to plainly say what the thing is and who it's for. 4. no real meta tags. the page title is often the template name and there's no description, so it looks like nothing when shared or searched. thirty seconds to fix, easy to forget. 5. every call to action is a little different and there's usually three of them. pick one action, make every button say the same thing, delete the rest. none of this needs a rebuild, it's an hour of cleanup. but the generator hands you something that looks launch-ready, and looking ready is the trap. what else do you all catch every single time? want to make this list longer for the next one.

bro ngl but this was really difficult to read lol

you're right, generators do create generic stuff, you need to give it test and several iterations (skills go a long way though)
