Carrd is a website builder for one page websites. This makes it a good candidate for personal websites or landing pages.
The fact that it's only focused on page websites makes the interface very focused. You can build single page sites with other builders but it doesn't feel quite as intuitive.
Carrd websites have a laser focus and minimalism quality that makes them stand out. It's certainly not a one-size fits all solution, but they're enjoying great growth lately.
The founder is very active on Twitter and the product is actively developed based on user feedback.
If you need a quick landing page to test a product idea or just want a personal homepage to use as an internet visiting card nothing matches Carrd's effectiveness.
It also helps that the pricing is very competitive, starting at only $19 per year.
Carrd is great for landing pages and a custom interactive calculator like a Return of Investment (ROI) Calculator or a Price Quote Plugin is a tested way to get more engaged visitors.
You can get leads through the calculator or even sell custom products with the Stripe integration.
Use the Zapier integration to send leads from the calculator to Mailchimp, Hubspot, Google Sheets or any of the 2,000 supported third party apps.
Carrd websites are very plain by design. That's fine for a personal homepage, but when building a landing page for a new product you need more engagement features. A laser focused calculator will make a simple landing page convert more visitors.
Use a calculator designed for your audience as a lead magnet. Your visitors get value from a calculation they need (like a custom pricing form) and you get qualified contact information.
Custom interactive content increases time on page and helps with link building, which in turn increases your site's Search Engine Ranking.
Take your calculator with you in a few seconds when you decide to move to another Content Management System like Wix, Squarespace or more.
Hiring a developer to build a calculator from scratch is very expensive now and risky when you'll need to update the calculator in the future.
We're a bootstrapped company and we focus on excellent customer support. We go above and beyond to build calculators that deliver value.
Plus Webflow, GoDaddy, Squarespace and more
