Post your landing page and let others describe what your company does!

Does your landing page describe your project well?

  1. Visit someone else's landing page for 10 seconds, then come back and tell them what you think their product does.
  2. Link to your own landing page, but don't say anything about it.

      no code landing page builder with out-of-the-box hosting service

    2. 4

      Single (landing?) page generator with tons of ready to use addons.

      1. 1

        Yes.

        Also, designing websites from scratch is possible without using any template or blocks. :-)

    3. 2

      wow - a really affordable landing page using no-code tools, built in mailing list features and other integrations. Easily 70% off the price of other competitors I've seen so far

    4. 2

      is it like a no-code website builder like Squarespace?

    5. 2

      Alternative to Wix/Squarespace for modern pages

      1. 1

        IMO Squarespace is quite modern, don’t u think?

    6. 1

      Nice clean design - good alternative to wix/squarespace I guess.

      Indiehackers client for iOS?

    2. 2

      Very clear. IndieHacker app for mobile. :-)

    3. 2

      Obviously an app for browsing indiehackers :)

    4. 2

      Unofficial Mobile app for IH.

      P.S. Do let me know above what you think of pipfeed.com. Thanks :-)

      1. 2

        An app to save links to articles to read later.

    5. 2

      Indie Hakers' posts filter app.
      Very Clear and direct!

      IH on mobile client

    7. 1

      I clicked on your because I liked your name BTW (the moon is a very cool name as it makes one curious what's going on!).

      Your app takes IH content but allows the user to consume it in a different way which users will find more fun and relevant. Plus you offer enhanced search capabilities.

      Is it "a better search and newsfeed for IH content"?

      1. 2

        but allows the user to consume it in a different way which users will find more fun and relevant

        Interesting. The intention is not really to make it more fun or relevant, but to make it faster and more intuitive on iOS.

        Plus you offer enhanced search capabilities.

        I'm curious where you saw this feature listed? I don't have any search capability planned as of yet.

        Thanks for taking a look!

        1. 1

          @levidxyz I think I was conflating "better filtering" with "search"? Very interesting!

      indiehackers mobile app - not sure if an app download is needed

      1. 1

        not sure if an app download is needed

        Thanks for the reply! Do you have no issues browsing IH on mobile?

    1. 3

      A mix between A/B testing and website analytics. Honestly, it's a bit confusing for me. :)

      It first says that it's an A/B test tool, but the first features being described are not about A/B testing, but about general website analytics.

      It's also not clear for me why I should use this rather than Google Analytics + Google Optimize + Hotjar, they're all free and all very easy to set up when using Google Tag Manager.

      Maybe I'm not the right target for this product.

      1. 1

        Thanks for the feedback, Nuno!

        We try to have one tool that covers your needs with a single js.

        • Analytics that simple and realtime
        • User explorer to see what actions your user-triggered
        • Funnels to see where your users drop-off
        • A/B testing to test different copies or even do server-side A/B testing

        The biggest difference is that it's easier to use and not bloated as the other tools. Most companies just need a small part of all functionality.
        You don't have to browse through 3 different tools.

    2. 3

      A/B testing for landing pages

    3. 2

      A/B testing?

    4. 2

      Alternative to unbounce focused on traffic

    5. 2

      alternative to google analytics? also, awesome ui. really is fast

    6. 2

      Mixpanel but unbloated and non-technical-user-friendly

      1. 1

        I love this one! :)

    7. 2

      AB Testing + analytics . Display your website in different ways based on user segmentation and analyse how they perform.

    8. 2

      Some kind of traffic analytics & a/b testing service

    11. 2

      Very beautiful site.
      Btw, I understood the concept very easily.

    12. 2

      Website analytics focused on A/B testing

    13. 2

      An alternative to google analytics?

      1. 1

        I don't want to compete directly with GA, more with mixpanel & co :)

    1. 3

      An interactive and public roadmap, with the ability to get users' input.

      Nice design btw.

    2. 2

      Product roadmap with access control.

      • I found the image in the header a bit misleading. My first thought was that your product is about custom geographical maps.

      • I would suggest to use the phrase 'Product roadmap' for clarity

      1. 1

        Thanks for the feedback!

    3. 2

      interactive to-do list shareable with others

    4. 2

      A (more) automated way to publish your roadmap publicly for users/customers?

    5. 2

      Project management tool

    6. 2

      I'm going to be totally honest, I don't know if I know what this is/does. I'm assuming you can make customized maps but it's hard to tell without a visual image of what the map is/looks like etc. A road map can mean different things :/

      1. 2

        Thanks for the feedback!

        1. 1

          I wish you all the best with it! If you ever want to throw it back to me in the future to check out, I will happily give it a look :)

    7. 1

      Nice and simple . great if you invest a bit the featured images and link ti to your objective (my opinion ) , good luck .

    8. 1

      kind hard for me to understand by just looking at it, maybe u wanna demonstrate a bit more, like screenshots

      1. 1

        Thanks for the feedback!

        1. 1

          lol tbh i have to do the same with mine as well hahaha

    1. 2

      Landing page with blog and lead collector (email list?)

      1. 2

        Pretty much we also have simple to use analytics built in.

        It allows you to track events like form submissions, button clicks etc and see what traffic converts the best.

        Indie hackers gets us a lot of page views, but other sites convert at a higher rate.

        Google analytics and other tools require some coding knowledge to set that up.

    2. 2

      website constructor with a focus on leads.

      (nice!)

    3. 1

      Website builder with built in blog and lead capture functionality.

      Job board for JavaScript developers. 👍

      1. 1

        javascript jobs board focused on the UK/europe?

    1. 3

      Generator of VR spaces? I am guessing that, read the landing page multiple times from top to bottom and I am still not quite sure. But probably I am not the target audience

    2. 1

      Thanks - it's not just VR but "XR" (meaning VR + AR + Mixed). Basically it's like Wordpress for Immersive Media - a single scene, instead of single page, that is generated at runtime based on the request.

    3. 1

      360 or VR images loaded on your phone with a QR code?

      1. 1

        it does support 360 pics and movies, but that's only the sky - the system generates fully immersive, interactive 3D scenes.

    4. 1

      Social media content builder?

      1. 1

        I can be used for social networking (supports several multiplayer and chat modes) but it's not strictly aimed at social - it's a CMS, like Wordpress.

  1. 2

    app.nerdmentors.com its almost done, but would love to get ur current feedback

    1. 3

      I really like the idea of this, but the 3 topics I searched for didn't have any results :(

      I'd like to check back on this, but I'm afraid I'll forget the website/name. I didn't see a place to sign up anywhere!

      1. 1

        WOW, you have no idea how happy am I to receive such a comment, the website is officially launching in 3 days, we have some programs ready, but not publicly available until the launch, this is why you didn't find any programs. if you can drop me ur email we can contact you once its live, also I would love to hear your thoughts about the whole thing, which program did u wish to find, and so on, let me mention my cofounder @yousefjoe :D

        1. 1

          colin@marketingqualified.com - this is on a good track. I maybe over emphasize feedback and have been told I'm VERY coachable.

          I had a business that failed and almost cost me $100k. Maybe that's why. There's more to this story and I'm happy to hop on a call some time and share insights and so on (and why I'm interested in mentorship)

          1. 1

            Actually 😅 I so happen to have a video about that whole story haha https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PBhD3qgLag

      1. 1

        what do u think of it, is it to the point, clear, attractive ? I would love to hear from u , thanks.

        1. 2

          The message is clear. Design is also clean. :-)

          1. 1

            thanks for ur feedback

            1. 1

              My pleasure. I have posted our landing page above. I would love to know your feedback. :-)

    1. 2

      slack for community builders with built in membership dues.

      1. 1

        thank you for you feedback man, I think we need a update on that. I am not focusing on the membership due right now actually. but the front half is true lol

    2. 1

      I get it and I like it. My only hiccup that stops me from looking deeper is "so would I start a live chat for my blog? What would I do post an article every day? I feel like that'd be awkward".

      I KNOW there's more potential than this that I'm not seeing and YOU have. Please fill the gap with me and open my eyes to the possibility!

      My company is marketingqualified.com. How would or could I use it?

      1. 1

        Hi,

        thx for commenting!

        It totally depends on how you want to use it. Pubb.at is actually more than a place where you can publish blogs. (of course, blogging is also great.) it is about offering a platform for the community to easily discuss certain topics(like a blog).

        Before I explain how pubb.at would fit with your product, just to understand your concern better, can u explain a bit more on that hiccup? Like what makes you feel awkward? :)

        1. 1

          Ummm that's a good question and it's something I can't quite hit.

          I see this app as a sort of live chat app. Like Whatsapp or Facebook messenger. I see it as a place I could invite my subscribers, clients, and supporters to join, but that it'd basically be an open chat group - and not everyone knows each other.

          This has to do with the fact I'm blogging and blogs are often times something people engage with or enjoy alone. That being said, there was an amazing time where I was in a room and 2 people who didn't know each other recognized me and came up and told me they have my blog saved in their toolbar on Chrome. That was incredible. They wound up chatting about me very excitedly for about 30mins. THOSE 2 people I could see getting into a live chat, but with the others, I feel it'd be quiet.

          It's sort of like video calls during COVID. I'm working with an org with 780 employees. On video calls, there's a silent point - a moment when there are X amount of people on the call and people mute/turn off camera and go silent. THAT'S the awkwardness I'm referring to (I think).

          I hope this helps - happy to answer more questions!

          1. 2

            I think you just gave me a great picture of how my homepage didnt do a good job on deliver the juice. It is more like a indie hacker type of discussion forum. It is real-time, but its not like whatsapp.. It's like a slack, but designed to handle discussions like indie hacker. So if u post blog or build a community on there, you wont really have those awkward moments.

            I checked out your website, i think it's a really cool one man. IMO you can create an exclusive community on pubb.at for your customers/readers. and you can post topics and related content in the discussion. people can ask questions and have a discussion about it. And they can create their own thread to talk about regarding ur courses and concepts.
            It will make your courses a lot more clear, and make it more engaging.

            I would love to hear more concerns or questions from you man! you really have some one of the best juicy feedbacks. :)

            1. 1

              Now that's an interesting angle I didn't think of. As a sort of course support group or something. I could see there being more value in that.

              But to be honest, I still have a gut feeling iffyness on it (and allow me to try and explain it):

              Okay, so I give course participants a place to talk, chat, ask questions, etc. Then I'll need to buffer it with some engagement stuff to make people feel comfortable, then if people have questions I'm going to need to answer them quickly because otherwise it'll become a quiet support forum thing. But how many of the questions and discussions are going to be people seeking specific technical help? To what extent do I cut off doing it for them? What if I cut it off too early and others see it and then they chalk it up to "he's not going to help me"? Jeez this is sounding like it'd be a somewhat larger thing to manage than I'm anticipating!

              These were my thoughts as they came!

              1. 1

                I think ur concerns are very real.

                You need to create some original content first for them to talk about. this is actually not the hardest. It's actually easier than you think it is. the point is to create contents that your customers want to see(solves their problems)

                It will increase your workload, but the return is bigger. As a CEO, my priority is not making money, my priority is to make sure my product is solving the right problem. To understand that, I gotta know my customers as much as i can. What is a better way to know what is wrong with my product than build a community and interact with them? this is especially important for early-stage CEOs.

                You want to consistently engage in your community until your customer base are too big for you to do so. validating product and the problem it solves is a constant process. You have to do it until the end of ur product life. But if one day you are too big to engage all of them, you wont have to worry about customers complain about "not helped". becasue the community is there. It's always giving feedback. and you can hire someone to reply for u. But that will be a long way from now.

                I like the fact that you think through all the dicisions man, it is a great value.

                1. 1

                  Great insights. Leave this with me as I scope out this whole course I'm building. The filming is scheduled to start July 2, so there's a lot that needs to be done by then - including figuring out a support system (possibly your app!).

                  I check back on IH often, so eventually you'll hear from me haha

                  1. 1

                    Good luck man! feel free to reach out to me. welcomed to shoot me an email or message on twitter man!

    3. 1

      Is this like meetup community type thing?

      1. 1

        Valuable feedback. love it. can u tell me where did it give you that impression?

    4. 1

      A slack alternative. Em, no.

      "Take your community from Zero to Hero" says nothing to me. I guess Zero means no community. Then Hero is... what?

      Then it says "Give Your Community Superpowers". Ah okay so that's an addon or something. For what? I'm lost.

      And I'm actually working on building a community now.

      1. 1

        wow great feedback man. I love it! I think we need an update real soon lol. btw what community are you working on? I might be able to help out.

        1. 1

          I'm working on a free website builder and web development platform ( https://boomla.com/ ), it's growing quite nicely given it's free and quite capable. For now I'm just communicating everywhere, mostly on reddit and discord. I'm basically just learning for now, letting it take me anywhere, understanding what I even want & need. I know this will not be manageable in the long run, so at some point I'll have to focus and use one. Btw I can't spend much on anything for now given it's completely free.

          1. 1

            Except it’s free, what you gonna add to sets u part from other website builders? Actually start charging it won’t be a bad thing.

            1. 1
              1. It's simpler to use.
              2. It's crazy fast. (Maybe not yet if you are far from the servers, say, in New Zealand but that will be solved in time.)
              3. It's reliable.
              4. It's an application platform.

              The last one is the really big deal. You can write and install apps, manage updates, etc. In fact there is an entire new OS (Boomla OS) under it.

              1. 1

                did u do a lot of customer interviews to validate the problem that you are solving?

                And what kind of community you are trying to build around your product? (i.e. a community of customers discussing how to use ur website, or something else)

                1. 1

                  I tried to find more stuff on what you are doing but couldn't. I saw the school liked your product. Do you have something to see/watch/read?

                2. 1

                  Before I started? Nope I did zero, but I'm building a better website builder so I think it's fair to assume people need that. I built it for myself so it's ideal for at least 1 person. And at this point I have more users so that box is ticked.

                  what kind of community

                  Brilliant question. In the long term I think developers and power users would benefit from having a community to discuss how to do things, but in the short term I'm focusing on the website builder not the underlying platform. And I'm not even sure they need a community. They need a tutorial and maybe a reddit style forum where they can ask things but not necessarily a community.

                  Now I'm wondering what is even considered a community. What are the rules and forces. Can you recommend some resources or books where I could read about this topic? You just made me realize I don't even know what questions to ask. Thanks for that!

                  1. 2

                    hey zupa, i hope i didn't confuse you haha. this is good, I made you ask yourself the hard question. I do that a lot to myself.

                    First of all, I recommend doing a lot of customer interviews even after you had some users. Building a product or community requires constant feedback to discover and validate the problem that you are solving. I hate to say this but I have done better, but ppl didn't want my stuff. The point is to solve the problem that people have.

                    A community is where people get together and enjoy doing the same thing. (simply speaking. but people often have different definitions) I think a platform for your users to interact is a good thing for you. Like u mentioned u can put tutorial and people can easily ask questions and even be answered by another user.

                    For resources on community building, I think in IH there are a lot of juice contents. you can always follow some dude like @8bit. He is very good at it and he wrote a lot of good blogs on it.

                    I haven't published a lot of stuff online yet, but I am planning on it next month. I am also composing this course where I teach people the basics of building a community. and offer them a space to help and support each other. I am gonna select a couple people to start that community next month as well.

                    1. 1

                      thanks for the vote my friend!

      No code website builder like Squarespace?

      1. 2

        Pretty much, thanks! :)

      2. 1

        +1 on this!

    2. 1

      build a website without code - and i'm assuming it's more than just blogs and landing pages?

      1. 1

        Thanks, pretty much. It is just those for now, but the secret sauce is that it is a programmable platform, so developers can extend it with server side logic. Will see where it goes/grows!

      A Sketch plugin that makes you 10x more productive

    2. 2

      CLI for sketch - awesome!

    3. 2

      Shortcut for Sketch? I don't use Sketch but I like the design of the website. Good job!

    4. 2

      A plug-in for art/design software. I'm not familiar with the main software but this seems to help shortcut steps.

    5. 2

      I was a little confused... is this a plugin or more of an add-on? Are the plugins you mention exclusive to sketchrunner or are these plugins available elsewhere and you just curate them for the user? Also, your domain is sketchrunner, but the name of your product is runner? I would make both the same.

      Is speed the only benefit? I feel like the site focuses on "features" as opposed to benefits (other than speed)... might be a good idea to explain how sketchrunner will make you a better designer... maybe something like:

      "Spend more time designing, less time clicking.
      Because great designers use Sketchrunner."

      Or something like that... the key is to extrapolate the benefits and what people can aspire to and become by using your product...

      What's the learning curve for all the keyboard shortcuts? Try explaining how easy it is to learn... "Become a better, more productive designer in minutes." or

      "Faster. Easier. More Productive.
      So you can focus on being Creative."

      1. 1

        Thanks for taking the time! This is really helpful.

    6. 2

      slick travel booking and expense log app for people who manage their own travel

      1. 1

        Thanks! It's B2B though - we might need to change some of the messaging.

    2. 1

      Is it like the Lambus which I'm using quite often?

    3. 1

      This would be good for universities with recruiters going abroad and so on. Really nice animations too btw :p

      1. 2

        Thank you! Yeah we spent some time on the animations and effects. Travel in University recruiting space is quite big and they are definitely one of our target segments. Travel has been hit pretty hard though - and business travel is almost non-existent.

        1. 1

          And it looks like it might be that way even after the pandemic. It's still possible though!

          Best of luck with it :)

    4. 1

      all-in-one business travel mgt app

      1. 1

        Yes! We have more intelligent predictive engines and analytics but haven't been able to portray that on the page.

    5. 1

      App to book, manage expences and plan business trips.

      1. 1

        Yes! and much more. For example: once a company onboards its employees, we can use employee preferences + company preferences to dynamically create and adjust the travel & expense management policy.

  2. 2

    Looks like I'll kick it off 😁

      A newsletter to help leaders make their work environment more fulfilling for their team.

      Note: Without going into the blog post, I initially questioned whether it was aimed at helping individual contributors make work more fulfilling and equitable for themselves or for heads of organizations. After reading the blog post, it seems clear you're targeting top-down.

      1. 1

        Thanks for the feedback. I’ll have a think about how I can make the audience I am targeting clearer upfront.

      1. 1

        Yep! 👏

        What is your favorite theme? Do you like the price point and also would you buy it?

        1. 1

          Pricing is actually great, very reasonable, probably on the lesser side.

        2. 1

          I actually do need a theme. But as far as I saw, most themes were for landing pages / portfolio pages / newsletters. I feel in those areas, the product ends up competing with all the other drag and drop builders / webflow etc.
          I need a theme for everything that happens once people sign up with my product. The onboarding part, form components, sidemenu, cards, lists etc.

          I am not saying that is the direction you should take, just trying to answer your question on would I buy it. Hope this helps! :)

          1. 1

            Thanks! I am trying to get a new theme out every week so I can reach a more varied audience. Thanks for your help!

      Something like Pioneer accelerator but for developers? if its that, I think you can pick up a ton from their workbook, especially the gamification. :)

      1. 1

        oh wow, haven't had that before :-), I wonder what gave you that impression!

        1. 1

          The way I understood it was - its a daily checkin community for solo devs. Pioneer is something like that for entrepreneurs. Are there some other attributes you want to highlight? Am I missing something?

          1. 1

            This is pretty good. I just never thought about Pioneer this way.

            1. 1

              Got it. Yeah, I guess the most important attribute of Pioneer is the accelerator and the funding part. :)

    1. 1

      I guess its something like Selenium for non-programmers. I love the "How it works" section, makes thing much much clearer.

      I feel your landing page can convey a lot more information without the visitor going to the "how it works" section. Since the real value prop I think is in how easy you make it, I feel that part should be somehow included in the landing page itself.

      I highly recommend checking out this link for more about landing pages (not mine) - https://www.julian.com/guide/growth/landing-pages

      1. 1

        Thank you for the feedback Saumitra! I'm definitely going to add more info about how it works to the homepage.

        That guide seems super informative. I'm going to read the whole thing.

        Thank you 🙏

        1. 1

          Sure, glad I could be of help :)

    2. 1

      Cool! Took more than 10 seconds. At first, I thought it was an AI that somehow built websites using existing images/templates you fed it.
      Then I think it really is an AI bot that uses bookmarked images/links/accounts with logins to check if things are changing.

      1. 1

        Thank you @Afhouston ! That's valuable feedback.
        That is a valid use case, but it's only a fraction of what Browse AI is capable of doing. We'll need to do some more to make it more clear on the homepage.
        Thanks again!

    3. 1

      Wow.

      Without clicking on the link - I thought its related to AI.
      After click on the link, I see that its automating the browser actions and check for changes.

      Good concept.

      Or does it mean that I will hosting on AWS / Google Cloud and Deploybob will take care of all the hosting related challenges?

      1. 1

        Hi Saumitra,
        Thank you for reviewing the landing page. Our service is indeed self-hosting for developers.

        Customers authorize deploybob to access their cloud provider account (AWS/GCP/Azure/Linode/DigitalOcean etc.) and deploybob takes care of all technical challenges related to deploying an application on the server.

        Currently, we are in private beta and only providing services for DigitalOcean cloud at the moment. Let us know if we can be of any help with your deployment needs.

      Upon first glance and the first 7 seconds, I thought this was a generate false reviews for yourself/your profiles. Diving deeper, it strikes me as an app to track productivity, but not necessarily something your boss would likely review/care about -- the approach seems to be "measure yourself and know how to improve yourself so they (the boss) notices".

          I hope that wasn't too harsh. I didn't comment on every website who posted, just the ones where I felt they were close but just off by a smidge here or there.

          I'm happy to take this off Indie Hackers and chat over a video call or to revisit it at a later time when you reiterate on it :)

        @jkeuhlen if you don't mind expressing a bit more, what sort of thoughts went through your mind as you scrolled down the homepage and saw this was a marketing course?

        1. 1

          I'm not really a sales guy at all, so not too much. I'm definitely not your target demographic sorry!

            It's all good amigo. Just on that mission for more feedback and such as this will be my first online course.

            I really appreciate you taking the time to check out my site tho :)

            1. 1

              No problem! If you have more specific questions, I'd be happy to give more feedback if you need it.

              I'm also looking for some thoughts on the site I'm building: opsisreader.com

              1. 1

                Absolutely it's the least I can do. I tend to go into detail so bear with me!

                1. Loading Time. I noticed the page took ~15 seconds to load. I stuck with it because I'm helping out a fellow IndieHacker but I prob would've bounced if it were a different site.

                2. "Take Control of Your Content" doesn't articulate the value enough to me. I'm unsure what this website is, what you do, etc. I know what's pretty demanding of a header title, but it's needed. I had a watersport company a few years back and the header was "Paddleboard Lessons & Tours" -- see how descriptive this is? How might you make yours more descriptive?

                3. "With a simpler feed". Ahh so this is a content curation app? Login and Sign Up don't excite me enough. I think wording around "join" would be better. "Join the Club" maybe.

                4. No offense, but I hate that logo! It feels toooo Microsoft Paint! Try getting a logo made on Fiverr :)

                5. The webpage's design is a bit wonky and lacking of content. The font-sizes vary.

                6. The spacing in your footer is a bit off.

                I see you listed you're in open alpha which is totally fine, but as I've learned over the years as a marketing person, even your alpha and MVP need to be very polished.

                Here are some suggestions:

                1. Light or Dark Mode Website. Do you want your content to be laid back, relaxed, practical, real, no bullshit? I'd go with dark. If you want something more formal, professional, serious, etc, go light.

                2. Fiverr Logo - a simple text logo is fine.

                3. I hope this formats well on IH.. but page layout.

                [ Header Title ]
                [ Header CTA - "Join the Club" ]
                [ 3 Column Benefits ]
                [ 2 Columns Image + About/Mission ]
                [ 2 Columns Image + Product Screenshot ]
                [ Big CTA the same as the top or, if people need to take a starting step like a consultation, put that in ]
                [ Testimonials - use personal recommendations if you don't have customers yet ]
                [ Final Goodbye CTA - same as top ]
                [ Footer ]

                That should be a start. Loop back around if you'd like me to see future iterations!

      This is an online food delivery app, right?

      1. 1

        We provide the free delivery and a special meal price only for members. The orders are placed (by seniors at risk) over the phone. We don't handle payments.

        1. 2

          Cool. Ummm just sharing my feelings here because I very much enjoy food ordering apps, is it possible to include something that's more full-solution for this?

          I know a food ordering app that partnered with a delivery company to streamline the whole order AND delivery piece. They're both doing amazing on that model together (they almost closed before they started doing this).

          Just an FYI. They're a friend too. I wouldn't mind making the intro if you think it'd be helpful!

          1. 1

            That'd be amazing! Thanks a lot for the feedback and the connection!

      Online keyword research, but I was truthfully a little disappointed in the experience (allow me to elaborate for your).

      I'm actually in the market for SEO tools right now and Neil Patel's Ubersuggest recently made a move I don't like - you have to create an account with them to use their app.

      Ubersuggest in 2016 was amazing. Neil bought it and I don't like it now.

      Here's the thing I absolutely hate: when you sign in, you have to sign in with Google. Part of the deal is you agree to share your data and website information with Neil Patel. That's very valuable data and I don't want to contribute to a massive pool of data for Neil to analyze everyone.

      I haven't found a decent tool yet (I've always been inclined to use ahrefs, but have hope there's something better out there), and had hope for your tool.

      I was okay with the form pop-up and entering info about my business, but the moment I hit submit, I was prompted to pay $89.00 to view a PDF report. This made me feel different things:

      1. This company wants me to pay $89 before I've received $0.10 of value? And I submitted a form with my business's information.
      2. A PDF isn't something I can really work with. I need CSV files, Google Sheets, etc.

      After this, I caught myself quickly concluding "maybe I should just bite the bullet on Ahrefs".

      I know this is might be difficult to hear, but I want to be honest with you. I totally understand the ups/downs of doing an online business. I hope this feedback helps - it comes from a good place!

      1. 1

        Thanks for the feedback, Colin.

        Interesting what you say about providing value before asking for payment. It's something I've thought about and it's seemingly a hard one to get around. I don't want to give away too much upfront, but it sounds like I'm giving away too little now.

        I appreciate the time you spent replying - I'll be taking it into account!

        1. 1

          Yeah it's a tricky thing to do - I agree. But I think it comes down to the market you're in.

          The way other keyword tools have been going is to either (1) give the keywords free (Ubersuggest, Keywords.io, etc) where they have a somewhat low-priced subscription model attached, or (2) make it a SEO solution (including keyword research) and offer a free trial (SEMRush, Ahrefs, etc).

          I wouldn't have the expectation to get more for free if the other players in the industry didnt already set that tone.

          And owner to owner here, that industry tone of balancing what's free and when to draw the line varies. I've had 3 businesses to date (an app, tourism, and consulting) and the app was pretty much a freemium play, tourism was straight up 'pay to get what we offer', and consulting has been about massively blogging much of our knowledge for free.

          I hope this insight helps!

    2. 2

      On demand keyword research reports.

      1. 1

        Exactly!

        Out of interest, how do you think the pricing/counter works? I've been getting mixed feedback

        1. 2

          I didn't even register that it was a counter, presumably to indicate how many reports you can produce? (I.e. you have limited supply?) I'm not sure whether it's having the desired effect if so. Perhaps "Join the waiting list" will have a similar effect?

          Re price, I'm probably not your target audience (right now). But my comparison points as a novice would be moz, ubersuggest, etc.

          1. 1

            Yes that was the idea. I only have a limited amount of time to offer towards creating these reports and I thought a counter would be a good way to show how many I could do for that month. It goes down on each report and isn't fake in any way but now I worry that it's perceived as purely a gimmick.

            Does it make sense to you that you're purchasing a single report for $89? Some other users have thought that it was $89 for the number of reports on the counter.

            1. 2

              Re the counter, I don't think I've seen one in a while and if Jakob's Law in user experience is one to go by, I'd try to express what you're trying to express in a different way (https://lawsofux.com/jakobs-law for more info). Perhaps copy/CTA suggesting a waiting list/exclusive access/limited supply might do the trick?

              Does it make sense to you that you're purchasing a single report for $89?

              Yes, this part made sense 😊

              1. 1

                That's the first I've heard about Jakob's Law - super interesting. It makes complete sense when you think about it.

                Glad the pricing makes sense, I'll have to work on conveying the limited supply another way

      I see potential for this app but I feel it has some work to go.

      I don't know about other entrepreneurs on here, but the more I dive into my business interests, the more friends I lose. YES, I gain friends online and followers/supporters, but it's not the same as having your buddies to go grab a coffee with on a Friday night.

      I don't know why I'm experiencing this, but it makes me sad from time to time. My business and blog DO make me happy though, so I focus on that.

      This is something I think people will need/want.

      Personally, in the first 8 seconds of viewing your site, I wondered hmm is this a place I can share my somewhat personal blog posts?

      1. 1

        Thank you so much Colin! We agree there’s a lot of work ahead of us, but we’re working hard to accomplish that goal! 👍 your messaged inspired us, we will continue to work on awesome products that connect the world.

      Speed dating on desired topics. I like the idea and think it'd be funny.

      I'm slightly hesitant to try it tho. I'm imagining searching "marketing" and landing in a live chat w someone with a bold timer counting down from 5:00 :p

      Me: Marketing.
      Them: Yup.
      Me: Thoughts?
      Them: Oh my.. everywhere.
      Me: Yup..

      Me: we should schedule a longer chat.

      IF this is how it somewhat works, that'd be a great way for finding guests for podcasts, blog interviews, webinars, etc.

      really fast way to build a website, but fast for who? and how good would it be?

      1. 1

        It is fast for a web developer of any level. You can be a beginner and you'll still be able to understand how to edit the text and images.

      I'm digging it. The UI feels right for me haha. Kind of retro, kind of flashy. Are you familiar with the company Tipsy Elves? Reminds me of a techy version of that.

      Might be some value exploring their community a bit more.

        Platform for Interior Designers, sorry to ask this but is it not clear ? do we need to change anything ? please suggest...

        1. 1

          Just sharing my open thoughts here. When I hear the words "interior design", i was expecting some indoor spaces / portfolio examples.

          As I scrolled down and saw the dashboard I started piecing together 'oh wait, this is like an industry-specific management app.

          Then I saw the "acquire more leads" which then gave me a second of 'oh they're trying to be everything right from lead generation to dashboards and apps'. The next thought that came into my head was 'well jeez, that's going to be an expensive project to pull off' and 'they'd be looking at building something to the scale/scope of Hubspot'.

          Next was the price and I have some more business owner to business owner advice for you there. The audience you acquire who participates in your $0 solution is going to be VERY different than your audience that buys your $5,000 solution. Sure, these are annual prices (and $5,000 is a bit low in my opinion) but with the onset of 'how do I try' and 'whats my cost to commit', it's a bit steep.

          I would suggest changing it to per-month pricing with an annual option.

          If the plan is to graduate one tier to buying into the next tier, I feel that might be challenging!

          Just my personal thoughts as I scrolled down your webpage. I'd be happy to set up a time to chat about it more.

        but, the first part is prescient... we'd love to figure a way to do this well.

      Bit confused. Who is the target.

      1. 1

        i said founders in the top-line... do you think i could be more specific?

        1. 2

          I'm a bit lost on this to be honest. I get the idea - one click community. But what kind of community? The term "community" could mean anything from an email list to a forum like Indie Hackers.

          That's my only stitch with it.

          And I consider myself an independent entrepreneur (not quite a founder). I would say a founder is someone with a tech company who intends to raise capital to expand grow and build a technology.

          Does this difference make sense?

          Also, small detail but this is my life lol the copyright year says 2017-2020. I think you can just leave it as 2020.

          1. 2

            you're right about the 2020... i'll get that sorted.

            i think your definition of "founder" is too specific actually... there are tons of founders who want nothing to do with VC and who aren't necessarily trying to build a (new) technology!

            but, they are most likely using tech to sell their products/services and growing their digital footprint and community efforts.

            great feedback. thank you! this was a good exercise!

      Embed a checkout box in your site.

      Actually I'm not sure about it, the 1-liner says:
      "Paired with a smooth, intelligent checkout experience."
      ..what is paired? The only thing before the word Paired is this distracting image that doesn't say anything but moves to grab my attention. I left confused.

      1. 1

        I love the feedback. We focus on helping merchants in the Middle East and North Africa accept payments from their customers anywhere in the world from multiple channels basically the stripe of the middle east and North Africa and if any suggestion to make better 1 liner or how to fix the copy of our site that will be helpful

        1. 1

          I can't give you a one-liner, but I can help you cross out all the words except checkout because those have 0 meaning to me. Try to justify how "smooth" adds value. How "intelligent" adds any info. Etc.

          That's why my summary was basically "checkout".

      Cheat sheet for web designers and web developers.

      I'm on a full HD display and the image doesn't cover the background. Also, some of the text is over the background pattern making it unreadable. And even where the text is not over the bg pattern it is too close. Give more room to breath. If this is a tool for designers, it MUST look good or you instantly loose credibility. I only stayed because of IH.

      And hey, this may actually be cool! But it feels so much effort to click on all the cards to see what's behind them. Because there are so many cards, I'm worried about the quality as well. Please rework the UI and add a preview to each card.

      I opened only the first 3: color palettes, gradient pattern, gradients.
      It confirms my quality worry. At this point I would quit. Don't give me 100s. Give me a few amazing patterns. Subtlepatterns comes to my mind. ( https://www.toptal.com/designers/subtlepatterns/ )

      Good luck!

      ps - I will actually submit my free website builder as a resource for your site if that's ok :)

        Hey Zupa,
        thank you for your feedback. Appreciate that.

        I have been testing different backgrounds lately. I am still working on it and I am aware of the letters overlapping. I just seem to not make it work...

        Regarding the cards, the markdown is getting removed. No one has used it almost...

        The quality of the design is growing with me, I am learning Front end and UI design while building it.

        You are worry about the quality. What makes you think is bad quality?

        There is not hundreds of patterns, there is just 16...
        80 color palettes, 50 something gradients and so on none of them goes over 100...

        They are css background gradients not svg and they have 547.

        Sure, submit it I fix it tonight.

        Edit: If you dont like the design, look how it looked on January.

          Sorry quality was the wrong word. I'm looking for a word that means extremely curated. I'm sure that's also a matter of taste, so it's hard to get "right".

          Indeed you have only a few patterns. I actually looked at the gradients where there are a lot. Let me zoom in on it to give more details.

          Re: gradients
          I think gradients are very context specific. When I opened it I had an idea that I'm looking for a full screen landing page background gradient. My brand has certain colors and I follow the school of using only a few select colors. Landing on this page, I have no way of adding them which I would find very useful. Seeing gradients with mixed colors is not something I like using. In case they are used, I believe the hue should not change too much to look good. The ones I see at the top change way too much for me. (This is pure taste and style!) They also change too much in brightness in my opinion, making them hard to use in either light or dark context. It would be actually useful to be able to see them in context.

          I'm also trying to see how much time it would take me to set up this gradient picker page to use it as a proxy for its well-curated-ness. The reason is that I have seen many such resources and I found none of them useful. The best resource I have seen in this area was Refactoring UI.

          So what would appeal to me is if you focused on one thing at a time and nailed it extremely well. But I'm sure I'm not the only type of visitor you get. These are my 2 cents.

          Btw, the site looks nice overall. Congrats on it! I'm sorry if I came across harsh, I always ask everybody to not hold back and tell me the bad parts, the good parts don't really help me in any way. Maybe I should not use the same mentality when giving feedback. ^^

          I have been testing different backgrounds lately. I am still working on it and I am aware of the letters overlapping. I just seem to not make it work...

          Have you seen Tailwind CSS? It makes it almost too easy to create responsive designs, it would make it a lot easier to position the background and the text correctly. Highly recommend it.

          Great progress, keep at it!

            The goal of the site is not adding them, on your own space, but to find the color you want to and use it.

            You can download the all the gradients, color palette, contrast and typography from Github or duplicate them to Figma.

            or

            What do you mean with the Proxy?

            I love what Adam and Steve are doing, a lot...

            So I took some action regarding your feedback.
            Instead of complicating the things I centred everything and used a gradient background instead.
            is live here.

            It wasn't harsh, I like honest and personal feedback. It makes me grow.

            1. 1

              Ah okay, so maybe I didn't understand how these gradients should be used. Now that you say it, if I could quickly try all of them, say by applying them to a background while pressing the down arrow, that I would absolutely love.

              Is that possible? If yes, you should definitely explain it on top of the page.

              Instead of complicating the things I centered everything and used a gradient background instead.

              Wow! The site looks WAY better now.

              Small thing. Maybe it just bothers me, but the button texts are not identically aligned, "Add Your Tool" is 1px higher.

              Congrats, it looks so much simpler now. Breeze of fresh air. :)

                I had that feature ages ago ! I removed to have a clutter less.
                There is two links on the navbar painting to them and also on the footer.

                I will take care of that and make it more clear.

                I am glad you like it.

                What did you meant with the prox? To use them on your website builder?

                1. 1

                  You mean the download links? It's unclear how one can use them. Too busy now to check out.

                  Re: proxy
                  Ah sorry for the misunderstanding. I mean the a phrase, not the technical term. As in, "it's hart do measure impact, so revenue is often used as a proxy".

                  1. 1

                    Ahh ok I got it.

      grammarly for landing pages

    2. 1

      I created an account and followed the instructions. A bit clunky in the beginning stages, but I like it. I was intrigued at first because the CTA was "scan you page" which it didn't really do - I pasted it in.

      It's like Hemmingway and Grammarly but with a focus on copywriting. I like it and want to keep using it but now I fear I'm going to forget the name of it in the very near future and won't return to it.

      This will be a tough challenge to overcome.

      I like this though overall. For a moment just now I thought how easy it would be to kick up a copywriting business and just use your tool :)

      1. 1

        Hi Colin, thanks for pointing those things out. I am not really satisfied with the name either. I registered the domain when my idea was slightly different.

        My goal is to be able to let people scan their landing page with only filling in the URL but I first want to add more features to the editor. More is coming!

        1. 1

          I think the domain is strong. You might not need to change that (but if you did targetcopy.app would be a neat one).

          The way to get someone to remember a name is to either blast them with awareness ads (remarketing ads or just fan it out loud like Monday.com) OR to to it the free/slow way of being consistent and constantly blogging about your app, your journey, your business etc. Sort of like how Casey Neinstat raised awareness about his app Beme a few years back.

        I'd say that's a very accurate description! Thanks :)

      an app that lets trainers communicate with their trainees and monitor their workflow logs

      seems super interesting

    2. 1

      workout log portal for personal trainers

    3. 1

      An app (not sure if web or mobile) that helps coaches, fitness trainers, etc . manage their athletes and their training programmes. I think it's clear what you guys do, so good job on that one.

      My main question would be around whether this is something that works for a particular field - e.g. is this suitable for swimming, cycling coaches or maybe it's more suitable for someone who works at a gym?

      It also looks like it will take some effort to set up everything, make sure that the athletes do use it correctly, etc... Anyway, these are a few things that came to my mind.

    1. 1

      lets me create a custom/white-labelled portal for sharing files with clients

      awesome domain!

    2. 1

      whitelabel dropbox for freelancers?

    3. 1

      It looks like a project management tool? The things I can tell after 10 seconds are that you'll be able to save contracts and generate invoices. Although I'm not sure about the generating part. And it has something to do with Trello and Github.

      If you're selling B2B you should definitely increase that price!

    2. 1

      turns google sheets into sites

      1. 1

        The best one. Infact I should change my headline on the site to this - "Turn google sheets into sites"

        1. 1

          Yeah I find the language on the site a bit confusing even though the concept is not complex.

          I'd appreciate if you comment an my link too 🙏

          1. 1

            Done. Just commented on your link. Good concept.

      page not found :(

    2. 1

      slack alternative optimized for async communication

      I've been looking for an async communication tool for years

      One feature I'd love to have in my communication app: voice messages. That alone could make me use a tool. Especially if the app transcribes the audio too. I'd go crazy for that lol

    3. 1

      internal community, like reddit, for company teams

    4. 1

      An async communication tool that's less messy than slack

    5. 1

      1. 1

        haha) That's sad!

        Thanks for your honesty. Can I ping you when I'll edit that?

    5. 1

      Health/wellness app recommender?

      What is Digg spelled this way?? I am really confused with the page actually. Sorry.

      In meditation there is a concept of truly knowing yourself from within and similarly in Buddhism. I am not sure what your page is trying to be as it says two very different things.

      If you are recommending apps to track your body/mental/nutrition status then shouldn't you mention that.

      P.S. just my opinion and what I felt.

      1. 1

        Thank you for your honesty. I appreciate that.

        Can I ping you when I'll fix my wording?

        1. 1

          Sure. Let me know and I will review. All the best.

      independent games recommendation newsletter.
      simple and easy to understand, but i'm not sure i'd give up an email to see these games unless these were games i'd never hear about in the app store or if these games are special in other ways, like are they ad free, etc
