Problem Statement

The GSSOC page currently jumps from informational content directly to the registration CTA without offering actionable guidance for new contributors. This creates a gap for beginners who may be interested in participating but lack clarity on how to start, choose issues, communicate with mentors, or make meaningful contributions. As a result, first-time users may feel overwhelmed or uncertain, reducing engagement and conversion despite a well-designed informational flow.

Proposed Solution

Add a “Pro Tips for GSSOC” section below the CTA that highlights actionable advice like:
How to choose beginner-friendly issues
Importance of consistent contributions
Communication with mentors
Writing quality PR descriptions
