My own startup: Visual Website Optimizer http://visualwebsiteoptimizer.com/ And, yes, we haven't gotten much press. Proof: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1520001

I like the design, but it would seem a call to action to signup would be best put at the top of the page.

What do I know though? You're the one with the A/B testing hammer! :)

Yeah, the call to action has been under serious experimentation :)

One hypothesis for not having Plans & Pricing button upfront is because it works great if your software is priced at sub $50 level. But VWO goes for $49, $129 and $249. So, unless visitors watch a video and get familiar with what exactly we offer, such prices will scare them into not learning more about the product.

Stormpulse http://www.stormpulse.com Bootstrapped, just went profitable, 2 co-founders, recently hired employee #1 (me) and #2.

How do you guys make money? Sorry, didn't have time to explore the entire site

Looks like they have a 'pro' account, which gives you access to a lot more data (radar maps), plus email alerts.

I'll throw in my own startup here as well:

www.adsreloaded.com - It's an alternative iPhone advertising platform.

I'm a 21 year old student founder, and am always open to answering any questions you might have, just let me know.
