Here's some info from a noob (me), which I hope will help you a little.
What is squeeze page?
A squeeze page is a page with some information; usually persuasive sentences of text, to try and "squeeze" a website visitor's name and email address. In exchange for the name and email address, a free report or ebook or access to a membership site might be provided.
Technically, more often than not, a squeeze page might have a list of benefits on why the website visitor should provide her name and email to sign up for something. Also an autoresponder sign up form would normally be placed on the squeeze page.
See example here: hxxp://www.g00glesnatch.c0m/squeezepage/ (change the zero to o)
What is sale letter?
A salesletter is a short or long article with paragraphs that should be persuasive so as to make a website visitor buy a product, or opt-in to a newsletter or perform the most desired action wanted by the website owner. Some squeeze pages are written like a salesletter and can be just as long e.g. 20 pages long and at the end, the most desire action is NOT to buy a product, but simply to sign up for a newsletter, or a free membership, or a free trial to a product.
See example here: hxxp://www.g00glesnatch.c0m(change the zero to o)
Note: Once the pop-up with the title shows up "

Cash In Markets You 'Thought' You Should NEVER Dare!", you might notice that it is also a mini squeeze page.
What is landing page?
Suppose you type "dog biscuits" in g00gle.com. You will see the first page of results, right? So, let's say you clicked on the 3rd listing that you see, that listing will bring you to a webpage, which may or may not be the homepage for the website. This particular webpage where you "land" on, can be called a landing page.
Here's another example. Let's say I own a website called EnLargeIt.com. I place a classified ad or g00gle adwords ad to sell a product called the bicep enlarger. When people click on that ad, I have a choice to send them to a landing page such as my homepage at EnLargeIt.com/index.htm or to the product page e.g. EnLargeIt.com/BicepEnlarger.htm (in this case, this would be the better landing page).
Maybe you could try explain me with some url examples?
Hopefully, the urls above and the dummy example might have been helpful?
What type do you prefer?
It depends on what you're trying to do:
Are you trying to build a list, sell a product, show off your product, build brand awareness, get them to click you adsense ads etc. etc....
