Show IH: Build your next idea with Laravel
Quick fact. Laravel is the most starred PHP framework on Github.
There are many people who have built their ideas using Laravel because of some many reasons which include low cost, short timeframes due to large components, security, etc.
This is why we started Netaviva (https://netaviva.net).
Our dream is to help people quickly build an MVP of their ideas using Laravel at an affordable price. We also help in maintaining existing Laravel projects.
PS: Any feedback you can pass along on the pricing is much appreciated.
Hi Stanley! I think that your website looks fantastic. The design is top notch and professional.
Coming from a Laravel dev, I would charge more. I personally would never build an "app" for anyone for $100. You have a specific skillset that isn't easily found (if you're good at it). Also you want to position the value you provide appropriately. If you're "cheap", then people will view your quality of work in that category as well.
Also, you might want to shift your content so that it can help non-laravel people understand what you provide more. People know what apps are, but they may not know what Laravel is.
Otherwise man, I think you're doing awesome!
Hello Kyle Logue, thanks a lot for the advice and feedback. I was actually trying to charge for basic stuff like Laravel project installation. Like you suggested, I think I will have to adjust my pricing
Hi Stanley. Great idea. Just 1 thing, you have a typo on the main home page, "Tranform" instead of "Transform". All the best.
Thanks Paul for the catch. I have that fixed now.
Hey Stanley,
Great idea with your site. I look forward to hearing about your successes on here.
Also just a heads up - the first name field on the contact form says "Frist Name".
Thanks a lot for the feedback. Really appreciate it
As already suggested by Kyle in the thread, I would rethink the packages. You're putting 'Idea prototyping' into the lowest category, and that might be the most important part in product development. Perhaps separate pure development and consulting packages.
I know you want to attract people with affordable and attractive rates. But cheap prices attract cheap customers.
Small note, at the time I visited schoolpurse link was down. If that site is down remove it, or at least remove the link to it. There is nothing more jarring then visiting a dead link in the reference.
Good luck.
Thank you for this valuable feedback. I'm re-thinking the pricing right now and will update that page very soon.
Hi @stanwarri
Cool idea.
But I don't quite understand it.
Do you build MVPs?
Or what exactly do you do with Laravel?
Cheers,
Hello @greenflow I build MVPs using Laravel. Also do support for existing Laravel projects.
I love Laravel. https://www.cryptolitics.io/ is built on Laravel and processes tons of data every hour and has no problem doing it.
Nice project. It's good to see such complex web applications built with Laravel
