website design - Which is the landing page and which is the homepage?


So I'm confused about which page is considered home and which is considered landing.


I got 2 web pages: 1 page is the login page when the user enters the website URL and other is the notification page after the user has been logged in.


My assumption is that the login page is the landing page and the notification page that the user goes to when they click on the website logo button on the top left corner is the home page. Am I correct or is it the other way around?




Answer



Landing Page
Generally:
1. Page shown to the user visiting the site for the first time.
2. Page shown to the user when the user is visiting your site via some other source.
3. "Home Page" and "Landing Page" could be considered as one.


Home Page
Generally:
1. Page appears after clicking "Home" tab on the site.
2. Page appearing right after "Landing Page".



Overall
Terminology depends on the basis of navigation and sitemap.


Hope this helps.
