To me, it's the core of why there's a website. And, it quickly introduces to the site visitor to what they can do next, in a linear, understandable way, with what they've learned from their first visit. They are all action items. The segment also, probably, answers most of the visitor's first questions. 

Maybe it could be the top left tile in your new grid of tiles? But, I'm open to suggestions too. 

I also think we can learn from looking at the home pages of other dynamic languages' websites' home pages. but let me know if you've already done that. I could suggest some things from them if you wish.
