Why do I have to create an acccount to see "more"?
I clicked on the "more" link for entrepreneurs, then, on the next page, had to choose the checkbox for entrepreneurs and click continue. You should automatically recognize which "more" link I clicked. Save the category checking for people who come to that page wanting to do a search or browse by category.
On the next page I had to put in two locations. I'd go with one and let the user add another one if they want.
Then I was asked to create an account. Why? I just want to browse your site. I stopped at this point, so it just became a waste of time.
- pinksoda 17y agoIt used to recognize which one you chose, then it showed you the first page of N amount of results, which for some categories is over 200,000 reviews, in alphabetical order. I got advice from HN'ers that it needed to be changed :) The account simply narrows down the results for you based on your selections of categories and locations. You can enter just one location and it will still work, it just doesn't tell you that. The account is barely an account, just pick a username and e-mail address, click, your password is in your inbox. Simply used to remember your preferences since it's pretty heavily customized (narrowed down) for you, to be relevant. Now that I've explained it a bit more, do you have any suggestions?
