Hosted Page

A hosted waitlist page is a fully-hosted, mobile-responsive landing page LaunchList builds and serves for you — no website, hosting, or domain required. Every project ships with one at getlaunchlist.com/pages/your-slug.

You configure it from the dashboard: hero copy, logo, colors, sections (Features, How it works, Testimonials, FAQs, CTAs), referral mechanics, and a custom thank-you screen. It is the fastest way to validate an idea or capture pre-launch interest before you build a single product page. Compare options in hosted page vs embedded widget and see examples that convert.

Not yet. We don't currently support pointing your own domain (such as waitlist.yourcompany.com or the apex yourcompany.com) at a LaunchList hosted page.

For now, every hosted page lives at getlaunchlist.com/pages/your-slug, and you also get a free short share URL — launch.li/p/your-slug — that's brandable and works on every plan. You can change the slug under Waitlist → Settings → Basic → Page URL Slug.

A custom page domain is a feature we're considering, and requests help us prioritize it — if a fully branded page URL matters to you, let support know and we'll keep you posted. (Sending email from your own domain is separate, and is already available on the Grow plan under Settings → Email.)

Use the hosted page if you do not have a website yet, want to ship in 5 minutes, or want a polished standalone landing page (at getlaunchlist.com/pages/your-slug, with a free launch.li/p/your-slug short URL). It is the right choice for early validation, coming-soon teasers, and most indie launches.

Use the embedded widget if you already have a marketing site (Webflow, Framer, Next.js, WordPress) and want the signup form to live on your existing landing page so visitors do not bounce between domains. The two are not mutually exclusive — many founders run both, then point traffic at whichever has the higher conversion rate.

A lot — without writing CSS. From the page builder you can:

• Upload a logo and favicon and set primary, accent, and background colors.
• Swap the layout and order of sections (hero, features, how-it-works, testimonials, FAQs, CTAs, footer).
• Choose typography presets, edit every headline and paragraph, and add inline images or screenshots.
• Customize the call-to-action button label, color, and shape.
• Edit the post-signup thank-you screen including the referral message, position display, and reward copy.

If you need pixel-level control beyond that, embed the widget on your own site instead. Step-by-step builder docs: Page builder guide.

Yes. The page builder is section-based — drag sections in, reorder them, or hide the ones you do not need. Available sections include:

• Hero with headline, subhead, and CTA
• Features grid with icons and descriptions
• How it works / Steps for explaining your product flow
• Testimonials / Social proof
• Stats counter (live waitlist count or custom metric)
• FAQs accordion
• Newsletter / secondary CTA
• Footer with social and legal links

Many hosted pages convert at 30–50% with a clean hero + 3 features + FAQ + CTA. Less is more — see why is my waitlist not converting for diagnosis tips.

Yes. Every hosted page is served over HTTPS with a free, auto-renewing SSL certificate — on both the default getlaunchlist.com/pages/your-slug URL and the free launch.li/p/your-slug short URL. There is nothing to configure on your side.

Visitors see the padlock in the address bar, password managers will autofill correctly, and Google's ranking signals for HTTPS apply.

We maintain a curated gallery in Waitlist landing page examples that convert with breakdowns of high-converting hero copy, social proof patterns, and reward framing.

Yes. By default, both the hosted page and the embedded widget show a built-in thank-you screen with the user's queue position, a personal referral link, and a share-to-skip-the-line CTA — this is what powers the viral loop, so we recommend keeping it.

If you need to redirect to a custom URL (for example to fire a Google Ads conversion tag, run a survey, or pass the user into another funnel), set a redirect URL under Waitlist → Settings → Thank-you page. See Thank-you page docs for parameters available on the redirect URL (email, position, referral code).
