This looks like it could be quite useful. I do think the site would benefit from the addition of case studies. If you don't want to publicly share any on a blog, you could set up a…

Nice work! I'm generally pretty immune to copy, but that would definitely get my attention. Also, good job eliminating the extra page in between clicking the button and the contact…

This looks like a great start. The first suggestion I would make is listing the features down the page instead of across. I think that will make it significantly easier for visitor…

Although it's a cheesy title, check out the "Letters That Produced Miraculous Results" chapter in Dale Carnegie's "How to Win Friends and Influence People". It will give you some g…

I think the real value of this type of testing would come from actually talking to people who are interested in your product. With that goal in mind, I would change the "I'm Intere…

Congrats on diving in and creating something! I would remove the Learn More button. You've got useful information on that page, so just take it and put it directly below your signu…

This seems like a cool concept. I think it would be useful to add some theme screenshots to the homepage. From what's currently there, I couldn't tell what kind of theme I would en…

Along with the two options that pop up when "Choose your nearest city" is clicked, how about a third like: Don't see a city close to you? This option could then take the user to a …
