This could become really(hugely?) popular among "otakus", i have just a few suggestion:
- Update the sample image, weirder the candies in the picture higher the signup rate, imo.
- I'd restructure the page to put the subscribe button in the top half of the page and make it clearly visible.
- A/B test the price (understanding which price/candies_quantity ratio is the right one could make a big difference) and find another way to give the option to choose euro or dollar (location based?), i don't like the fact that you have two buttons with the same function.
- After Tofugu(nice start) you should try contacting some other anime or japan related site/forum/blog.
- bemmu 15y agoI changed the picture to something else, just to remove the Pocky from now on. "No Pocky" was the number one feedback I got from US subscribers. I love A/B testing but I wonder if I have enough conversions to really test yet. I would really like to do more guest blogging. Done it twice so far and it is my favorite way of reaching out to people. Bloggers get interesting content for free and I get exposure. For the readers, if done properly, it can be actual interesting content.
- drtse4 15y agoI remember an old blog called konbini-life where this guy reviewed the strange stuff he bought at local konbinis (candies and other weird "barely" edible things). The blog is now dead (but was quite popular at the time, he was even featured in the Japan Times), you could try opening something similar, i would read it :) Also, yep, at the moment it's too soon for a/b test.
- praxeologist 15y agoThere's all types of short-run Pocky flavors that won't be at most places in the US, even most Asian groceries. Still, I think that anyone who lives near a Mitsuwa could easily outcompete you without bulk importing and still have a great variety.
