Checked out your site. Have you tried going after a niche in the DIY website creation biz to differentiate your offering?
A thought...why not go after restaurants? Have a way to upload menu easily, a location with map info, maybe even online reservations. Fully outsourced, customizable and charge monthly.
When you do go outside, drop by restos and show them your screenshots (done in PS) and get real feedback. You can probably hit 10 restos in a day.
Note: this is just top of my head -- not sure if anyone is even doing this.

- prawn 17y agoA tonne of companies would be providing that sort of service to restaurants and they would likely already have a head-start, industry contacts, etc. You'd want far more of a niche than that IMO.
- apsurd 17y agoThanks for the feedback. I think you are spot on. I've tried to force myself to think in terms of b2b because business are willing to pay for stuff that works. I'll put together some market tests and go out and ask people. thanks again.
