For me, the answer would be Stripe Atlas (https://stripe.com/atlas)
Why? It seems very generic and bland. Or is that the point? Also, it make you scroll through a lot of stuff to find what you are presumably going to the site to find. They bury the important stuff way down at the bottom.
Yeah, most 'landing pages' are pretty useless exercises in annoying your user.
This proves two things for me, design has nothing to do with the success of a product, and the second: design is subjective and changes not only from person to person but also for you, there is an absolute chance that one design that you love now, may hate in future.

Now it's been redesigned of course:
But I still prefer the original.
I decided to go for a very different path and create something that could showcase the product as soon as possible, with simple and objective copy for people who wanted to understand it better.
I do very much love it as it is right now, but of course I am biased, and of course I am open to criticism to improve it. But the principle (clear copy + showcase the product working) I will probably keep.
Here it is to receive your judgement: https://www.quidsentio.com
I like it, but I think it would be nicer without the big list of "regional maps" at the bottom. I'm not really sure how best to include that list (users have told us, "list all the regions so I can ctrl-F for them! or else I hate you!"
Next I want to add some stats to the landing page. Like, top 25 pinball machines that are on location. And each one listed would be a link to show that machine on the map.
How can I love something like that?
- Fast to load
- Tells you what the product does right at the top
- As it's a database library, and there are many other database libraries - the features are written in terms of how the product is different from the competition - goes into
- Code examples pretty soon, so you can really see what using it would be like.

Love the colors and use of simple animation - really stands out from the bland tech/startup sites we usually see.
Check out the Wipeout icons and typography :-)
It is a start up to compete with powerpoint that raised 50 million pre-mvp... yea ... sweet landing page tho
I think the snake animation is pretty cool.
I haven't changed it since I made it back in 2011, aside from adding links to new projects.
I like it because it loads fast, isn’t very designed, and focuses on decent copywriting instead of A/B testing quackery
And it converts well at an average of 50 cents per pageview.
Took about 4 years of customer research and conversations to arrive at that copy.
