It'd be nice to hint about what you're offering before having to enter a zip.
- andrewljohnson 18y agoWhen does it ask for a zip code?
- lacker 18y agoIn the search box when you first load the home page.
- andrewljohnson 18y agoThe button says "Find Trips." How might it be made more clear?
- jamess 18y agoBy having a landing page that isn't just a giant map. You need to explain what your site does. As it is, I suspect most of your visitors will arrive and depart almost immediately.
- andrewljohnson 18y agoWe do have a bounce rate of about 40%, which is something we're trying to manage. I think part of that is not knowing what to do on the site, and part of it is because the site is really slow (until tomorrow when we launch the new version). We're thinking about switching from a giant map home page to having the "Geo News" (in the main menu) as our home page, once the news page is polished.
- epi0Bauqu 18y agoWhy not just use geo-location to pull up a map based on where the user is right now?
- andrewljohnson 18y agoWe'll do that eventually... it's just another feature filed in our bug tracker. It's not clear how valuable that is though, particularly on a US level. The first goal for personal geo-location will be to show foreign visitors a world map.
- bdotdub 18y agoI agree. There should be something indicating what this thing is, if nothing else a tag line that hints at what it is. I'm still not entirely sure what this is supposed to do.
