# Sections Follow Questions > Order the page by what buyers ask. - Section: Marketing - URL: https://critly.vercel.app/sections-follow-questions - Published: 2026-10-14 - Source: https://github.com/kausthubh-coder/critly/blob/main/content/marketing/sections-follow-questions.mdx One AI-built landing page from our evals had eleven sections, all of equal weight and all set in the same small grey 14px text. Scrolling it felt like reading one section eleven times. Nothing told you which part mattered, so you skimmed all of it and kept none. **Order a long page by the questions a buyer asks, in the order they ask them, give each section one idea, and size it by how much that answer matters, because a page of equal sections tells the reader nothing is more important than anything else.** > **Interactive demo: Sections Follow Questions.** Open https://critly.vercel.app/sections-follow-questions to try it. The page starts in a common template order. Move sections until no answer comes before its question, then switch to sized sections and compare the minimaps. ## Length follows the questions A landing page can't hear objections, so it has to answer them in advance. Conversion Rate Experts made that point with Moz: Rand Fishkin needed around nine minutes to sell the paid product face to face, so they built a page [six times longer](https://conversion-rate-experts.com/scrolling-tips) than the original, covering the questions people asked him. It beat the short page by 52%. That's one test, for one product with a complex offer, so treat it as a reason rather than a rule. It doesn't show that long pages win. It shows that a page that answers the questions people really have can afford to be long. Eleven sections are fine if each answers a question someone has. Three are too many if two of them repeat the headline. ## The buyer's order For most products, a buyer's questions come in roughly this order. It's our default, built from the sources below, not a measured sequence: 1. What is it, and is it for me? 2. Show me it doing my job. 3. Why not keep doing what I do now? 4. Will it handle my case? 5. Who else uses it, and is it going to last? 6. What does it cost? 7. What if something goes wrong? 8. How do I start? Your [message](https://critly.vercel.app/message-first) changes the details. The "instead of" line becomes question three, and the buyer's doubts become questions four and seven. Julian Shapiro's [template](https://www.julian.com/guide/growth/landing-pages) puts social proof and a call to action straight after the hero, then features that answer objections, then another call to action. He warns that the further a page strays from a familiar template, the more confused visitors get. Either order works when each section answers the question the reader has at that point. Real pages change the order a little and keep its shape. In October 2026, [Basecamp's homepage](https://basecamp.com/) says what it is, shows a large screenshot of a real project, walks through the tools one by one, then hands over to a long letter from its founder before the customer quotes. [Stripe's payments page](https://stripe.com/payments) puts a working checkout straight under the headline, then gives one benefit per section and one interface per product. These are examples of order, not evidence that it works. Each section gets one idea, and its heading states the answer. "Features" is a label. "Prices every recipe from your supplier invoices" tells a bakery owner whether it handles their case. ## Size by weight, and vary the pace Three equal cards say three things matter equally. Usually one of them is the reason people buy, and it deserves most of the space and the biggest picture, with the others as a line each. The same goes for whole sections. The answer to the first two questions gets the most room. A supporting point gets a short, tight row. Vary density as you go. A large product shot, then a compact grid of small features, then one big quote, then a table people scan, then a short list of questions. The change from section to section is what tells the eye a new idea has started, the same way [whitespace](https://critly.vercel.app/whitespace) and [visual hierarchy](https://critly.vercel.app/visual-hierarchy) do inside one screen. Body text stays the same comfortable size all the way down (see [the first screen](https://critly.vercel.app/the-first-screen)). What changes is how much each section holds and how big its picture is. ## Resources - [How to make users scroll down your page](https://conversion-rate-experts.com/scrolling-tips): Conversion Rate Experts on the long Moz page that beat a short one by 52%, and why it worked. - [Landing page copywriting](https://www.julian.com/guide/growth/landing-pages): Julian Shapiro's section order for a landing page, and features written to answer objections. - [Basecamp](https://basecamp.com/): A long homepage that answers one question per section, with sections of very different size and density. - [Stripe Payments](https://stripe.com/payments): A product page that shows working UI straight after the headline, then one benefit per section.
