    Your 1650 "Users" are only visitors!? Still a nice engagement for just one post!

    1. 2

      Hi @Thorworx and thank you!

      Yes, in fact, they are not users, the 1650 are visitors. Just 16 from 1650 created an account. I hope that the number of sign-ups will increase after integrating social signup options

      1. 1

        10% is definitely not a bad sign up rate :-) My advice is to focus more on value than on social sign up options!

        1. 3

          More like 1% but still agree with you.

          1. 3

            One idea I had spontaneously to increase the sign-up was to allow directly on the homepage to edit a dashboard. Kinda "big intro" text on top and below directly a dashboard to play around with. With little arrows to the main functionality. Maybe something you like as an idea :)

          2. 1

            Hahaha oh wait it's 1% indeed. Then you should definitely focus more on the value!

        2. 1

          Hi @MrAtiebatie! Agree with you, the value delivered is much important!

  2. 2

    I tested your product before and like it, it'll be great if you allow attaching data sources to it like via api, then it'll be a very solid tool. Great job!

    1. 1

      Hi @torpedo77, I am really happy to hear that you like it! If you have any ideas of integrations (the ones that you need) please let me know!

  3. 1

    Fantastic product.

    I only have one suggestion, rename the title of this article, they're amazing visitors (not users yet)

    Keep it up!

    1. 1

      Hi @felix12777, thank you for your kind words. You're right, just updated the title of the article!

    I'm looking for this kind of tool from long time. However, I'm more keen on connecting my own REST Api(to fill the data) as well with this kind of tool. That way it looks complete for my requirement.

    1. 2

      Hi @ayyappa99 and thank you for your comment. I also have in-plan integrated REST Api in the near future! Hope I will do it asap.

      1. 2

        Count me in for beta :) Thats a long awaited dream for the requirement i have!

    Very cool. I have someone who could use this as they are using Google's tool and having issues. Thanks for sharing.

    1. 1

      Hi @oceanring! If you can tell me what issues can I solve to make Loopple better, please let me know!

  6. 1

    Congrats on that, and it's not even about users. Gosh, a drag-n-drop dashboard builder? Please, shoot me a dozen. When working with product analytics, I often encounter startups that are in pain about quickly crafting a dashboard or two. Will be a +N on your chart :)

    1. 2

      Hi @scalekarma and thank you for your feedback! Can you please tell me what kind of data would you need to connect to so I can add it to the 'to do' list for the next updates?

      1. 1

        also, I would take a look at a dashboard builder from the product design perspective, i.e. what jobs it gets done, just posted about that btw

      2. 1

        well, I mostly look at it from the product marketing perspective. a common problem, for instance, is matching google search console and google analytics clicks-visits count, because they differ. And, that's okay, but the factor of this difference is important to understand the overall funnel.

        1. 1

          Sounds good, I added it to the 'to do' list!

  7. 1

    It's really cool with quick download option.

    1. 1

      Hi @imranonline, happy to hear that! Please let me know if you have any other feedback or feature requests!

  8. 1

    Congratulations!

    I am really proud to see your results. I can see you have utilized creative tim for building the quick MVP, which is a great way to validate fast. Would love to follow the updates.

      Hi @hereisnaman and thank you for your kind words! 😍

    Cool! Nice job.

    I'm semi-obsessed with the weird recursiveness of web builders. Made a few (bad ones) over the years.

    Smart of you to niche down and serve a specific use case. The only one I had success with was edit.uselander.xyz - worked with the designer, @tabansi, to make an editor for his simple copy-driven page template. The others were flexible, and a total pain to use!

    Any long term plans for it?

    1. 1

      Hi @AndrewV,

      Your web builder looks very good and is simple to use, really like it. I also have long terms plan with Loopple, a few future steps are to integrate more skins, the option to download more pages (a ZIP with more files), and in the future to launch also a version for frameworks like Angular, Vue.js and React.

      Thank you!

      1. 2

        Yeah! I wanted to do multiple pages, but the project was taking a little too long for a free tool, so we didn't get around to it.

        It was really fun using a JS Zip library to make a single download, though!

        Keep it up! Loopple was fun to play with :)

    Congrats on this!
