Hero Section.

Your 3-second pitch. Badge, gradient headline, primary + secondary CTA, social proof, product screenshot. The complete recipe.

What it is

The hero is the first thing a visitor sees when they land on your website — before any scrolling. It's your 3-second pitch. A great hero immediately communicates: what this is, who it's for, and why they should care. It typically contains a main headline (the biggest, most prominent text on the page), a supporting subheadline, and one clear call-to-action button.

How it works

Hero sections are typically full-width and either full-height (100vh) or tall enough to fill most of the screen. Content is either centered or left-aligned. The visual hierarchy is strict: headline dominates, subtext supports, CTA stands out. A visual element supports the message without competing with the text.

Above the foldEverything visible before scrolling — your hero's domain
Value propositionThe one sentence that explains what your product does and for whom
Primary CTAOne main action button — 'Get Started', 'Try Free', 'Book Demo'
Social proofSmall trust indicator near the CTA — testimonial count or rating

Build a hero section for a productivity SaaS. Layout: centered, full-width, dark background (#050505). Badge at top: small pill shape with text 'Now with AI • What's new →'. H1 headline at 72px bold: 'Do your best work,' — next line: 'in half the time.' with 'half the time' in gradient text. Subtext at 20px muted gray: 'The AI-powered workspace that thinks as fast as you do.' Two buttons: primary ('Start for free', blue filled) and secondary ('See how it works →', text only). Below buttons: small trust row '★★★★★ Loved by 10,000+ teams'. Below that: a product screenshot in a browser chrome mockup with a subtle glow effect.
