The little widget...maybe. But all the reporting...that takes a good bit of time to get right. And the reporting (ie. what all that data means) is really what's valuable here. So, I'm not worried about it. Plus, when people say &q

Can you offer a bit more info? Did you get an error? Did you click on something and it not go somewhere? Did the page look borked? Aliens take over the screen? Can't fix it w/o a bit more info as it's working on our end (incl

In time my friends, in time. :) The fact is, most customers (ie. the ones who actually fork over a credit card) don't care about a "management team page" for a product that they'll likely spend about $50/mo for. The

Great feedback. Really appreciate that. The screenshots section was actually a last-minute addition this morning so definitely needs some work. I agree 100%. We haven't experimented with the order here on Temper, but we have on our oth

Thanks for the kind words and great feedback! Lack of support link on home page isn't intentional. Just still working on a better "page" (instead of a simple email link).

It's meant to track how your customers perceive all interactions with your company. So, how did that checkout experience make them feel? Was their interaction w/ the support staff a positive or negative one? Are they happy with th

I think the mentality actually applies to a lot of things. Apps, products, entire businesses...even your personal life.

With the word "execute" I also associate the word "ship". So if there's an big push to "execute" as quickly as possible, why did they go with a physical book when they could have shipped a finished book in digital format exponentially faste

I'd actually recommend you give both services a try and see which you actually like before making a recommendation to anyone, one way or the other.

It was absolutely appreciated. I mentioned exactly that that in the article. But banning all references to an animal is straight crazy talk.

I question _conversion_ though. Sure, the first ad had a lower CTR, but if you click on it, you almost certainly know what you're getting. With the second it's very much "Haha, I wonder what this stupid ad goes to?" and then you just abando

AdSense is still probably the best bet for lower traffic volumes. Depending on your niche, there may be some boutique ad networks that could bring in more money at lower volumes (for instance DogTime Media for pet sites: http://dogtimemedi

I used the opportunity to do some house cleaning. I had to quit being sentimental and be honest with myself about what I would _really_ use. Then I just let the ones I didn't want anymore stay with GoDaddy to eventually expire.

In my experience it took around 12-36 hours for the entire process with 30+ domains. And nameservers will transfer.

If you're transferring to Namecheap, you can combine both the domain name and the EPP code on the same line (comma separated). That'll save you a step of having to re-submit it for each domain.

Only mentioned in passing at the end of the article, but still very much a part of this discussion, is the use of good release notes. Just putting "bug fixes" on an "x.y" release is borderline insulting. Sure, it's great that you're releasi

Two things. 1) Funny, because the app I was interviewed for worked out exactly like that. I haven't spent any money on marketing and done very little to promote it. People just like the app and tell their friends about it. 2) You're confusi

You sound like my grandfather. How "professional" the developer of an app looks in a photo has absolutely nothing to do with the success of an app. Build junk people want and quit worrying about how "professional" you're perceived.
