need feedback on my new minimalistic blogging platform
Vagabundo is an intentionally simple Blogging-Platform with beautiful templates aimed at backpackers. Create a custom blog without ever leaving our beloved Telegram.
currently in alpha i'm looking for feedback and thoughts to this product. Is the on-boarding clear enough?
to test the product Telegram is required
You can find a demo blog under: https://demo.vagabundo.co
Hi Lucas,
A few honest points from my end....
how many (%) backpackers use Telegram to blog? Perhaps by making the only input method that app, you are reducing user onboarding.
can the blogger back up their content and move to another platform? I worry about this because, if you decide to shut down, I'll lose all my content.
stating yourself as a Solo Maker will give you developer cred, but for customers that can be worrisome. Usually showing a strong team helps add credibility and trust that there are bunch of smart people working to make sure this platform stays up. So, it may be better of you to take down that section.
Hey Lloyd,
i also thougt about making a pwa for that purpose, but then video and image uploads would need much more data that you don't always have when you are backpacking.
thank you for your honesty. this were absolutely helpful thoughts!
It has a nice feel to it!
Quick edit: It should read 'Safe and Sound' instead of 'Save and Sound', not sure if you intended it to be a wordplay
thanks 😊.
i like the landing page. did you make it?
thanks, yes 😊
Great overall feel of the blog! and the core-idea I like a lot. Good luck with it Lucas!
I'd refine your first section, the idea area. The title needs a little more work, although simple, it's not very captivating.
I love using the personal side of marketing products, but take a little more time with the copy in this section.
Actually, as I look at the main section, I'll say the same for this area as well.
I'd use something else instead of the logo as your main header title. Your logo only matters only to the extent you capture your audience.
Check out basecamp for a great example of this: https://basecamp.com/
That said the idea is very interesting, and the site is very well made.
thank you for the basecamp example. i think i know what you mean. i have to make it more clear what this product does, right?
What the product does is important, but its more about how it connects with the user. It’s less about the features, but selling how it changes the users life.
Great landing page and the idea itself! Can't give you much of feedback but good luck to you, looks promising.
Hey Lukas, I am not a telegram user, but I checked out the demo blog and it looks promising.
I like your landing page as well.
