Feedback on a product idea.

https://michael-andreuzza.github.io/bulma-express/

So I am creating a website with templates, and snippets for Bulma.io CSS framework based on flexbox.

BulmaExpress
Designed to help jumpstart the foundation of your website by providing you with the building block to build your business on while modifying on the Bulma framework.

Is getting more users daily and there are not so many resources as there is for Bootstrap.

The idea is to just use the CDN for the templates without dependencies, grab & go.

Later on, I will add paid templates for just 5€ each.

I need your opinion about this, so do not hesitate and let me know what you think.

You can see the repository here,

Thank you so much and have a good day.

    Your templates are really nice.

    I've always built my websites myself so I'm definitely not the target market here, but they look of a very professional calibur.

    It's my observation that the paid templates market is incredibly saturated, but thankfully design trends are always changing so it's fairly sustainable. As a new business? I don't know.

    Edit: Know your value. If you can convince somebody to spend Β£5, you can convince them to spend Β£10 or Β£15. Don't undersell. A lot of evidence shows that people will buy the higher priced product "because of course it's better, it's more expensive".

      Hey Cameron, thank you for your time and feedback.

      The thing is that, what I would like to target here is mostly those that want to use the HTML skeleton and then adapt theire preferences to it.

      It could be.

      • New users to Bulma.io, that wants to tweak the template and learn by doing so.

      • A front end developer freelancer/ agencies that wants something quick.

      Regarding the low price is because I am going to have Ads on the site.

        Hi Michael,

        Re: Ads. I'd say most technical users are using adblockers these days, so you'd have to be pulling in a lot of traffic to make bank. If you are going to go this route, I'd suggest using a premium network like Carbon Ads instead of Google Adsense. They pay much better CPMs and are targeted directly towards your kind of business (the developer/designer market).

        Best of luck.

          Yeah I have talked to them actually for my other site, colorsandfonts.com. I really think the ads are awfull, but...you know.

          I have budget zero so I can't buy ads from carbon... that's the only reason
