The best landing page builders for ads are Unbounce and Instapage if you want built-in A/B testing, Framer if you want a designed site, and Carrd if you want a cheap one-page site. Pick the one that lets you test two versions of a page without a developer.

## Unbounce

Starter gives 5 pages and traffic up to 500. Build gives unlimited pages, popups, sticky bars, multi-step forms and AI copywriting, with traffic up to 20k. Experiment adds unlimited A/B testing and dynamic text replacement, which swaps the words on the page to match the ad. It offers a 14-day free trial with no card.

## Instapage

Create gives 15,000 unique monthly visitors. Optimize adds server-side A/B testing, multi-step forms and dynamic text replacement. Its page also lists AdMap, which links ads to the pages they send people to, and a 14-day free trial.

## Framer

A design tool that publishes sites. Basic has 30 pages and 2 CMS collections. Pro has 150 pages and 10 collections. A/B testing is a separate add-on. Extra editors cost $20 a month each.

## Carrd

Very cheap. Pro Lite has no forms, analytics or custom domains. Pro Standard at $19 a year adds custom domains, forms and analytics for 10 sites. It offers a 7-day free trial of Pro.

## Do you need a paid test tool?

Say you spend INR 60,000 a month and get 2,000 clicks to your page. At a 3% [conversion rate](/glossary/conversion-rate), you get 60 leads at INR 1,000 each.

1. A test lifts the rate to 4%. That is 80 leads.
2. Unbounce Experiment costs $149. At $1 = INR 85, that is INR 12,665.
3. Total cost is INR 60,000 + INR 12,665 = INR 72,665. Cost per lead is INR 72,665 / 80 = about INR 908.

You save about INR 92 a lead, but only if the test finds the lift. If you test once a quarter, a cheaper builder may do.

## How to choose

1. Match the page to the ad. Use a [landing page template for ads](/templates/landing-page-template-for-ads).
2. Open the page on your own phone before you pay, and watch the [bounce rate](/glossary/bounce-rate) once ads run.
3. Ask whether a form inside Meta works better. Read [lead ads vs landing page](/compare/lead-ads-vs-landing-page).
4. Count the seats, domains and traffic you need, not only the headline price.

We make Marxx. It is not a page builder. It [captures Meta lead ads](/features/leads) within seconds, with the answers and the ad behind each lead. That is the option when you skip the page.

## FAQ

### Do I need a landing page for Meta ads?

Not always. A lead ad keeps the form inside Meta. A page helps when you need to explain an offer or collect more detail.

### Can I use a normal website instead?

Yes, but a separate page lets you match one page to one ad and change it without touching your site.

### How many pages do I need?

One per offer or audience to start. Add more when you test a new angle.
