A SaaS homepage passes the 5-second test when a stranger can say what you do, who it's for, and what to do next — in five seconds, without scrolling. The above-the-fold structure that passes, the six mistakes that fail it, and a repeatable process for writing a homepage that orients a buyer instantly.
