The page looks nice and you have a clear flow and call to action...but the copy could use tightening up all around. For example, the subhead:

> New, exciting way of doing online courses

Sounds like it's missing an article: "A new, exciting way of doing online courses"

And is "doing" the right word? Maybe the verb should be: "taking" or change the sentence structure from "of doing" to "to take"

There's a lot of little grammar and style things that should be polished...IMO it's a big factor in an online education's first impression


Thanks a lot. We are based out of India and most of us can speak english but have terrible grammar. But I will get it corrected.


Apart from the name (is it pronounced "Lurnk"?) I think its a good job. You explain what it is you do in the header and then request an email address - can't ask for more in a premarketing site.

Good job dude.


Thanks, Its pronounced - 'Learn'-'cue'.


Ah I see.

Though I understand why you've spelt it that way (I'm guessing its for the .com domain name?), it might be a bit of an oversight to have a education company misspelling the word 'learn'...


Yep. Maybe thats the thing we will be known for :P Do u think LearnQ sounds better? Thats available but a bit pricey, can do it if we get some funding I guess.


Yep, much better.

Maybe pick up a .io for cheaper? Or change the name altogether?


Page looks very nice. Interested in what kind of courses will be coming here. It would be great if you could put some up coming courses.


Yep. Will add that info to the page. Will be very relevant.


Too much orange text, makes my eye jump all over the screen looking for the important text.


Will choose a milder color. Thanks for the feedback.
