Re: Saw the pricing of $24/month on the page. Dunno why I missed that.

Would you consider charging for each Survey or each Response instead?




I like the URL idea - ID numbers are not very friendly (and as you said are bad for privacy).

I'd like to keep pricing simple - pay a fixed price and use it as much as you like. This to me is both easier to implement and will encourage people to use it more.


Yeah, URL Fix is key I think...

But about the pricing; consider this: * You'd probably earn hellofalot more with individual pricing? I mean, I pay per sent SMS/Email/Whatever on other services. It's the usage that will cost you money in terms of data-transfers?

If I'd use your service with a newsletter of 100 000 subscribers, let's say 10% would answer my very quick survey, you'd have to host these 10 000 users throughout the survey with $26 in your pocket.

It might be sustainable in the long run if you have enough users that does not utilize the service that much - but with a couple of enterprise users you might be out of luck(?)...

I'd still consider thinking twice about your price-structure, you might want to charge 24/month, including X answers or something?

I'd certainly be willing to pay a fixed price per month (Maybe lower) and then $0.xx per answer to my survey?

Best of luck! :-)
