@PlausibleHQ

I've been merciless 👿 when I was reviewing your designs.

Now it's time to look at good examples ☺️

Let's start with @PlausibleHQ

Here is my UI/UX review👇

Look at how social proof should be done 🤩

🔸Real testimonials, no fake people
🔸Links to Twitter profiles
🔸The design look balanced
🔸Stats are not fake, which feels like the service is reliable and not making up things

Well done 💪

Have a sign-up form?

Show me:

🔸Is there a free trial?
🔸Fields I should fill
🔸Possible constraints (e.g. password rules)
🔸What will be the next steps?
🔸Log in link, if I've already signed up

@MarkoSaric

By the way, highly recommend the service. @MarkoSaric has done an incredible job! ☺️

I sold Pingr.

One of the hardest tweets for me.

Lessons below 👇

Some stats

🔸Time spent: ~14 months
🔸Hours spent: ~1000
🔸Number of users: ~560
🔸Number of paying users: ~20
🔸Number of lifetime deals sold: ~20
🔸Total traffic: ~23K
🔸Revenue: negative
🔸Price: I cannot disclose the price, but it covered my development time fully

1 / Listen to others but make your own decisions. After I posted on Reddit, I decided to change my pricing model, but it turned out to be a mistake. I listened to others.

When a user asked me for something, I immediately started doing it.

Make your own decisions.

Want to hack hacker news? 🔥

After I finally hit the frontend page, I gathered some insights into this thread.

Some are unique, I haven't heard of them before

Thread 👇

1 / How many times you can post?

You can post multiple times, event with the same title. I've checked some account submissions.

It can be posted from different users, or the same user.

2 / Will they ban me if I post multiple times?

They won't. But if you post the same link often, you will be the only one who sees your submissions. Others won't see it.

So they have some kind of filtering mechanism here.

Google, you are bad at UX.

Proofs below 👇

1 / Gmail

I've been using gmail for more than 10 years. And every time I want to load more emails, it takes time to find where the pagination buttons are.

Their placement is completely non-logical.

2 / Google developer console

I thought that I'm the only one who searches in google if I need to find something related to the google developer console.

Turned out that I'm not.

Almost impossible to find something there.

Your app talks to humans, not machines.

Here are THREE main principles of communicating with users in your apps.

Thread 👇

1 / Be explicit

Don't tell the user that he has typed a wrong password when signing up. Tell him exactly what's wrong.

Bad: "Your password is wrong"
Good: "Your password should contain at least 6 characters"

Your users are not visionaries.

2 / Don't leave users without any clues of what to do next.

It often happens that developers show users some kind of error if something went wrong.

App: "An error occurred. We are sorry".
User: so...now what?

Provide users with further instructions on what he can do.
