Hi Victor,

Thank you!

It depends on what is your goal with the LTD. Our goal was rewarding our beta users and getting more early users who will build real websites (More real use cases = More issues/feedback = An Improved product for the future).

We were offering a 50% lifetime discount already for our beta users (When we introduced LTD). So our early users would pay $18/year for Starter Plan or $30/year for Premium Plan. So we designed an LTD plan which is a mix of both plans (but closer to Starter Plan). Pricing started at $49 for the first 100 spots (Almost ~2 years of LTV upfront). We have increased the pricing after 100 spots and last spots were selling at $149 (Almost ~6 years of LTV upfront if we compare to our early 50% discounted price).

We have also made a rough calculation of how much resources users will use if all the LTD users use their plans in full capacity and every single website become very popular (Highly unlikely).

Feel free to contact me if you need any other information. :-)

Thank you so much, Brayden. You have been there from the very beginning 🙏

I have no idea. 😁 I heard that they count votes per minute or something. Which is low for us as we have launched almost 7 hours before Circle.

But I don't really mind. The feedback/comments we have received are really motivational for us. Also, the sales we have got so far. :)

Here are the 2 best guides available.

Thank you!

I have seen Frontendor, it's darn sweet 🎉 Congrats on the launch.

then I'll go there and do 2 upvotes today :D

Hi Eduard,

Thanks for your comment. :-)

We have planned around how many spots we can offer on lifetime plans. We decided to sell 200 lifetime plans (Max 250) and it will never come back again. So there will be a maximum of 200-250 users on lifetime plan.

Also, lifetime plan has limitation of 3 websites. So once users reach the limit, they have to buy a yearly subscription to add more sites.

Sent you a DM on Twitter. :-)

Thank you, Stephen.

Thanks for sharing the discussion. 😁

Thank you so much!

We have our own HTML/CSS/JS generators. :-)

Thank you so much, Cristian.

I'm not affected by it. I'm always open to learning things. You are right about dedicated users. We have not promoted the lifetime deal anywhere. Only tweeted from our account and sent an email to already registered users (Which only 19% opened due to a mistake from me).

But so far almost all the sales we are getting from the early users promoting us in their network, groups and friends. Which is really motivating for us (Our early users did it even before the Lifetime Deal).

Thanks, Bhaiya. 🙏

This might be only relevant for bigger B2B deals.

I'm not fully familiar with these, to be honest. I will look into it. :-)

We will open-source the project if we are unable to continue it (The chance is very low, as we have plans for at least the next 2 years). This is our position from the start. (Well before offering the lifetime plan)

Thank you so much. :-)

Thanks, Nicolas. 🙏

Thank you, Jonny.

From here (indiehackers.com)

is the price better? better UI? different feature set?

It's a mix of all. We tried to give user flexibility but keeping it easy to use. It was our primary goal. Early users are loving this approach so far. :-)

Thank you!

Do you mean building the platform? Little over a year (we worked as a side project).

We launched the beta homepage in April. Started giving access to early users in May. Implemented payment method 2 weeks ago. :-)

Thank you so much!

let me know if you need any help. :-)

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you so much! :-)

I think that lifetime is a lot better for the customers. Customers are already starting to have SaaS fatigue, due to all the subscriptions piling up. It makes sense for actual services and for B2B, but for things that could be products from a customer-point of view lifetime is amazing. See Photoshop for example, many customers hate on the new "Creative Cloud" subscription model.

Problem with SaaS vs Product (lifetime) is that it also stops innovation. Customers are already just paying to use the same product, which can just be in maintainence mode and no new features added to it. With a product, you make it, people buy it and their only incentive to pay money to you again is if you release a much better product.

I am not saying SaaS is bad, just that in the end we should not try to force everything be a SaaS even if it could as well work as a one-time payment product. We are also customers, we should always think about them and providing high value, especially for the early adopters.

So many points. One is rewarding the users who are testing the product for 2 months. Trusting us in our infancy.

Where is the re-invention of the wheel here? Making a SaaS product? Or selling the lifetime plan? 🤔

Thank you so much! :-)

Thanks, Peter.

I have verified the domain before sending the campaign. But the drop was huge. Got your tweet on twitter. Sending you a DM. :-)

I switched from Mailchimp to EO recently. My open rate on the first campaign is 60%. I week later I sent one more campaign to those non-openers, and those people really don't open it. Not sure what is the problem.

But I was thinking of going back to Mailchimp again because EO doesn't have simple segmentation to send a follow up email campaign to non-openers.

Hey one reason you're getting lower email openings is your emails are going into Junk mail. I just signed up on your site and I had to look into my spam folder (provider is Outlook.com). Just an FYI. Great work BTW!

Hi,

Thank you so much for the comment.

Yes, It's on our plan. Please check our public roadmap http://go.10m.io/dorik-roadmap. And I think it will be available next month. :-)

Thanks,
Mizan

Did you use the same link on mobile and desktop? It's working for me. We are updating the login and sign up a page soon. We will check it again. :-)

Background shapes are currently used as an image. I understand the point. And we have already planned to add "Shapes" feature for the background. It will be similar to how our section corner shapes works.

If you need any help, please let me know. You can use the live chat on the website too. :-)

Thanks,
Mizan

Hi Warren,

Thanks for your comment.

Currently, we are not using any provider for authentication. We have implemented the authentication following the oauth2 standard. In the future, we'll implement "login with google" and others.

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much.

Yes, It's built with our website builder without writing any code. :-)

Thank you so much! 🙌

We will add the comparison. We are still in beta and adding more features. Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate it.
