Congrats guys! Now that the hump is over, what are the traffic levels like?
In 'What went wrong' you imply that you didn't do enough to capture user info but in 'What went right' you say you kept the barriers low by not requiring registration. In hindsight, which of those was the bigger deal?
- olegp 16y agoWe got about 1K uniques today before this post. So far we've seen 800 uniques on top of that, with 80+ users concurrently online. This is likely to drop off, as we are no longer on the home page, so the lesson here is that accidental launches are better than planned relaunches. To answer your other question: ideally I think we should have gone for a user experience whereby we let users try the service out without registration, but prompt them to save their work by registering when they try to leave.
