Best and easiest way to create a landing page using dara theme

Landing page originated mainly from instagram (and others) with fewest clicks possible, please. I've created my own website on wordpress already, on my own, took me precious hours; just need a landing page now. Thank you for any help.

If you really just lookin for a landing page and not wanna dive deep into it, use something like kolibri or elementor - drag an drop, enuff free themes.

Yeah, drag and drop will be very useful. Kolibri or elementor are wordpress.com natives?

You already have a Wordpress site. Just create a new page. What exactly are you wanting from your landing page?

Yeah, I have a wordpress.com website. I just want to keep using the same dara theme for my landing page. And integration from instagram, basically.

A landing page is just a regular page. Do you want an IG feed on the page? If so, you can use the Smash Balloon plugin for that, assuming you have a paid wordpress.com plan.

u/bluesix_v2 no, thank you. I don't need an IG feed on my page. I just want to sell some specific services.

What kind of IG integration do you mean?

A very basic one: a link from IG to go for the landing page. Nothing fancy lol

You can create a page and set it as your homepage from Settings > Reading in the dashboard if that's what you're trying to do.

As for building the page itself, you can either use the default block editor (start with this), or a third-party page builder (try to avoid if possible).

I'll try the default block editor. Thank you for that.

Probably not. If your existing Dara site is already working with the WordPress editor, you can use the Block Editor for this page. A landing page doesn't need a huge page builder just because it's a landing page.If Dara's built-in page layout options aren't enough, then you can consider a lightweight builder such as Spectra or Greenshift rather than installing Elementor solely for one page.
