Hey, this in not meant for Everyday Normal Guy™. If you have 1 or 2 sites, you can do all that the service does by hand, no big deal. This is meant for some sort of professionals who have maybe tens of sites, or maybe many competitors whom they are supposed to watch too, and doing all this by hand is just too much work.
So to even get some taste of using the service I think you need several sites. Maybe you could give just 5 for free, but no less.
This is for now of course. If the service could do something special, i.e. pinging the servers at least, then maybe you could give away just 1.
2 out of 7 initial beta testers added more than 120 domains into the system each.
As I explained few times .. S-A becomes really valuable for webmasters with >30 websites. And becomes mildly valuable at 10 so I think 10 is a good number. And I want to provide some concrete value for free users also.
Pricing options might change. Everbody can test S-A for how long they want with up to 10 websites. I used 6 months because 1 year seemed to much and 1 month would come to cca $1.80 for Plan 30 which is not worth the payment processing.
thanks for your reply. I am waiting for more when you will be able to sign-in :)
I agree that 10 free websites is far too many. 1 for free then start paying after that. The pricing looks weird by being per 6 months. Make it yearly or monthly.
I'll look deeper when I can get in.
edit Got in, nice collection of information. I'm not frustrated any more :)
