I keep hearing that one of the best ways to validate an idea is to build a quick landing page, run some ads, and see what your conversion looks like. But I'm not sure a rushed landing page gives valid signals. Our conversion rates from paid and organic traffic are terrible. But when we sell directly to clients, they love the product and we're seeing real traction. Web conversion alone would have made us quit too early.
