A couple critiques for the front page:
- Change the wording on your "Call to Action" button. The fact that you can jump right in and start editing without filling out a form is great -- emphasize it, don't hide it. Saying "Sign up, it's free" makes me think I'm going to be filling out a form, creating a username, giving out my email, etc. It should just say "Try it now for free" or "Jump right in" or something along those lines.
- The screenshots of example sites should most decidedly either open up larger, or open to the actual live sites on which those screenshots were taken. If I knew better what the button did (see above) I might not have cared as much, but I always like to see what the creators consider some "ideal end results" with their product. A tiny thumbnail is just not going to cut it in that regard.
EDIT: Okay, going back, I see now the button actually says "Start Now, it's Free". I don't know why I thought it said "Sign Up", but I guess if nothing else it's worth noting that an actual "user" went to your site and misread the button. I don't know if that means it still needs to be changed, but at any rate, it happened. :-)
- Bitmobrich 16y agoI agree, the screenshots of example sites should open to the actual live site.
- thesunny 16y agoThanks for the suggestion. It is doing this now.
- aquark 16y agoI read the 'Start now' button as 'sign up' on a first glance too and was then confused by the 'no signup' text below it. Maybe choose a word that doesn't begin with 'S' and doesn't have a shape like 'Sign Up' ... I like the 'jump in' idea, but maybe that is not culturally neutral enough.
- admorphit 16y agoMaybe 'No registration required' is what you're looking for?
