Why does it self-host the front page on Hypernumbers?
Either:
1. Hypernumbers offers this kind of web page as a feature, in which case you've got a problem because the pages have trouble looking good (and therefore won't virally advertise the service in the way they might if they had a little more style cred).
2. Hypernumbers doesn't offer this kind of web page as a feature, in which case you shouldn't try to make it fit - I'd suggest dropping some money over at 99 Designs for a more professional-looking front page. You're going to need something slicker to sell this.
In either case, it's non-obvious that the page is self-hosted. It's obviously a pride point, so you might want to point that out! I'd also love to be able to play with the spreadsheet UI, or at least a little piece of it, directly on the front page. Show off what makes you awesome!
I'd also take another look at your copywriting, both on the page and in your video. You've described it as "the Team spreadsheet" - why is "Team" capitalized? Also, the contact details in the top bar makes it sound like there's only one person in the company. Is that true?
(I should say that this isn't a comment on the product itself, which sounds very handy.)
- gordonguthrie 16y ago1 - yes hypernumbers allows you to publish a spreadsheet page as a webpage with a single click (as mentioned in the video, on the demo and on the front page). Its not a pride point it is practical. We try and use hypernumbers everyday for as many tasks as possible to feel as much customer pain as possible. We are a very small company - my name is on it because we are optimising for communication from customers and I want people to phone/Skype me...
