As others have pointed out, the signup is broken/down.

But also: how much does it cost? "Get started for free." is interpreted by my cynical self to include the closing phrase "and as soon as you're interested, it's going to cost a lot to continue."

No contact information, no price information... what is this except an email harvesting exercise?



It's free with no plans to charge for anything, don't worry! "Get started for free" is simply a call-to-action to make that apparent. Cynicism warranted... that should've been more clearly explained.

I thought the same. I'd only been on the page about 30 seconds and I came back here to see if anyone had mentioned pricing.

Perhaps 'Get started, it's free' would be better suited.


If it's free, don't ask people to sign up. My email address has value to me. I'll give it to you if you earn it.


Then I would say definitely go with "completely free" or similar. I too didn't leave my email because "get started for free" suggests to me "the first one is free, but once you're hooked we'll hit you with opaque pricing!"

(and i'm glad i read this thread so i can sign up!)


"Get all 30 projects free! Sign-up Now!

Something like that the other recommendations still lead me to believe that it would cost something later.


Uh oh...I got a "Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently" when I emailed you.
