Designing Landing Page Graphics

In a way, what I put on the landing page is crucial to gaining early adopters. During the flight to Japan, I came up with a few ways to convey the message of what UserBit wants to accomplish. To come up with an illustration to go with the message is another challenge. I do not want to simply slap on a happy bright image up there. Started to work on this today hope to deliver this by tomorrow

Billing implementation

Billing is now implemented complete with ability to opt into a new plan. I still have to refine this to allow for upgrading/downgrading plans but I figure this can wait for now.

Feedback mechanism

I flirted with the idea of using services like Drift and Intercom to gather user feedback. I have used Drift in the past but I don’t know if it’s worth it. Logged in users almost never send out any messages through it. I do sometimes get a question from people curious about the service but it’s too far and between to be of any real worth.

So I implemented a quick Feedback functionality myself using the editor I already built for taking interviews. This will allow users to send rich text information to me.

Once the beta landing is implemented, I’ll open the beta up for people to join. It’s time to get some real testing under way.
