It's a great looking site but I can't do anything unless I signup. I entered my zip expecting to see some results but all I get is a link to sign up form. Is there a demo that visitors can check out? Or maybe allow Google/Twitter/FB logins so I don't have to sign up?
I do like the idea of growing my own veggie garden. The site concept and design is very promising. Good luck!
- erikpukinskis 16y agoYea, there's a link on the plans page to preview your calendar, but it's not coming up because of a bug I overlooked! Fixing....
- erikpukinskis 16y agoOK, it's fixed. So, once your calendar is ready you can click "preview your calendar" and see the calendar. I definitely want to streamline the site for non-signer-uppers. Basically I'm planning on having a page for every city in the US (automatically generated) with a planting calendar that people can check out right away without signing up. I think that will be good for SEO, too. But that's a few notches down on the todo list.
- nekopa 16y agoI think you should move this up a few notches in your todo list. If you can generate the pages for every city, do it, publish them, I think you will gain great google juice. Especially as a lot of people are looking at growing there own veggies in the US right now (my opinion, judged by a recent spate of 'grow your own' articles I am seeing nowadays) Technically this shouldn't be too hard: You have the info from zip codes already, just make a nice template to feed all the info into. Collate by groups of zips that are in, say, the top 100 US cities(by population).
- jpletka 16y agoI agree with this. In my mind the ideal workflow is Zip Code -> Choose your Veggies -> Show your Personalized Calendar in the top half (with more details than just "carrot, June"), show signup options underneath.
