Hi man, thanks for sharing. One suggestion: The PDF preview should be about a Solution, i.e.: solve a basic problem. The current preview shows just some illustrations, but, when he clicks to see the preview, the visitor still has No idea about wheter the book will be of any help to his kids/grandsons/alumns. my 2c.

Has to be record timing to forget your password in two hours. Really appreciate the tip. My idea with that preview was for it to be a bit of a cliffhanger, and leave the viewer wondering what happens next (and in turn, download the eBook). But perhaps your suggestion is the better approach. Thanks a lot.

  6 more things: 1.- Preview button: The button is almost invisible, it needs to stand out a lot more, needs to contrast with the blue . 2.- the font choice Maybe people don't like the font? The font is hard to read, not friendly, gets tiring. The best font for reading printed matter: Serifs (i.e. Garamond, Gentium) The best font for online reading: Sans Serifs (Helvetica, Arial, etc) You need to make font samples: print the same page 6 times, each one using a different font, like this: http://webstyleguide.com/wsg3/figures/8-typography/8-9-common-fonts.jpg http://webstyleguide.com/wsg3/figures/8-typography/8-9-commo... . . 3.- Did you use inDesign? The margins are too wide in my opinion, too much whitespace . 4.- Show 2 or more PDFs: Maybe people need more proof to convince themselves? i.e.: Sum example PDF preview, Multiplication example PDF preview etc . 5.- File size Maybe people think the file it's too big? InDesign and also Adobe Acrobat have an optimize setting. . 6.- Testimonials: Maybe people need social proof to convince themselves? Testimonials are great social proof. . . P.S.: use a post-it! P.S.: I'm a designer btw
