Hi. I’m Thomas. founder of www.whatzzznew.com. Previously, I led scaling efforts at a YC-backed payments company. During the process, one of the things that worked for us is something called Nudges that encouraged users to do certain actions on Landing pages and Blogs. I have now built a no-code tool so anyone on your team can add it to the website without developers’ help. Would appreciate your feedback. Looking forward to contributing to the community.

Hey Thomas, love the idea of nocode nudges. Here’s some feedback, hope it’s helpful! 1. imo, you need to clarify your offer. What I read from you in this thread was different than what I saw on the webpage, and the name of the site sent a different message too. I tried to re-word what you described in this thread based on my understanding. I’d suggest changing your :
Encourage your users to take specific, valuable actions right now. Takes seconds, no code needed.
2. I love that you have successful experience using this technique. Did I miss that mentioned on the site?
3. The site design is nice but lacks a lot of the touches that make it look professional (e.g., effective layout, proportionate font-sizing/spacing/leading). I think by far the easiest way to make a site look great is by adapting existing templates. I primarily use a paid offering: TailwindUI, but there are free alternatives as well. Personally, I think my marketing and app pages are much stronger design-wise(and faster to build!) because of it. Design matters primarily because a lack of it looks unprofessional and reduces user trust. It’s a big part of the first-impression you make on your potential customers.
4. Probably the biggest piece of feedback: You don’t seem to be using these pop-ups on your own site?!? This seems like a massive missed opportunity to me. If they’re not ready for production, could you fake one until you can put together a final version somehow? As long as it looks nice enough, it doesn’t have to be “real” on the backend.
Hope this is all helpful! Good luck with your project.
