Show HN: My first SaaS venture. Feedback welcome
My friend and I left our jobs a month ago to get our side project, Cloud Cannon, ready for launch. Cloud Cannon makes it easy to get a simple website with a CMS online and launched. It does this by:
1. Syncing with Dropbox. You drag your files into Dropbox, Cloud Cannon then syncs them to our server and makes them live on the internet under the domain you've provided.
2. Integrated CMS. Have your clients update their own website using our simple CMS. Add a class of "editable" to any div you want your clients to edit. All changes your client's make will be pushed live and saved back to your Dropbox.
3. Website Optimization. Cloud Cannon periodically optimizes websites. It minifies Javascript and CSS and pushes all website assets to a fast CDN.
This is our first business venture so any feedback is more than welcome. I hope you find Cloud Cannon useful.

- zerr 13y agoThese 2010s sites look pretty much the same, visually. Is there some kind of trend and/or are these templates easy to get? Maybe the tools generate these kind of default pages? I left web dev in mid 2000s, so things changed quite a bit.
- mneumegen 13y agoI think the trend is driven by testing and user analytics. If a cluttered design with lots of animated gifs converted best you would probably see a trend in that direction.
- tehwebguy 13y agoLooks cool, the link to Pricing on the homepage is linking here though: http://d1jbsbf1vyg6lk.cloudfront.net/cloudcannon.com/raw/pricing.html http://d1jbsbf1vyg6lk.cloudfront.net/cloudcannon.com/raw/pri...
- mneumegen 13y agoThanks for pointing that out. We've fixed it now.
- citruspi 13y agoJust a note - on most pricing panels, the prices increase from left to right, with the base plan on the extreme left, so I had a minor heart attack when the first number I read was $89.
- mneumegen 13y agoThanks for the feedback we'll take in into consideration. Our goal is to make a designer's life easier so causing a heart attack is the last thing we'd want :-).
