Sure I could have just used Mailchimp landing pages, they look fairly good, but if you want a little more control and a little less lock-in, you can use a combination of:
- A Gatsby landing page template: https://www.gatsbyjs.org/starters/?c=Landing%20Page&v=2
- A free private github repo for versioning and backup: https://github.com/
- A free mailchimp account for lead submissions: https://mailchimp.com/
- The mailchimp-gatsby plugin for easy integration: https://www.gatsbyjs.org/packages/gatsby-plugin-mailchimp/
- A free netlify account for builds and hosting: https://www.netlify.com/
This entirely free solution gives you a performant website landing page, with lead capture, automatic thank-you emails care of mailchimp and a with a simple way to push your code all the way to your website:
git push -u origin master
Netlify will run a gastby build automatically and push public/ to the web whenever you push your master branch to github.
And, if your feeling really lazy, you can roll it out with this gatsby / mailchimp form template:
https://www.gatsbyjs.org/starters/tonydiaz/gatsby-landing-page-starter/
The only thing left to do with this template is setup a fancy action on _handleSubmit after their email address has been sent to mailchimp.
