Please say it here or I, probably along with others, will classify your marketing tactics as shady. Is withholding the price that important that you're willing to risk a reputation black mark on your product?

I am terribly sorry if it came across like this. To be honest, the only reason I did not have a public subscription page is that I was too lazy to add logic for displaying buttons with "account signup" links, instead of "payment" ones for anonymous visitors. And now it bit me back today. I just a deployed a fix for this issue, you can now see the prices at http://www.sayafter.me/subscribe

Thanks for doing so! You might take a look at some pricing-page recommendations over at kalzumeus.com.

You may find things are more successful with something more like, for example:

    Pay Monthly   |  Pay Quarterly  |  Pay Yearly
    $30/mo         |  $75 ($25/mo)   |  $250 ($20.83/mo)

    All plans come with a free 30-day trial (or money-back guarantee); cancel or upgrade at any time.

A note about prices. I'm in need for such a service and thank you to provide it. But $30/month is more that what I would give. For that price, I would expect to have a human teacher to review my progression from time to time and provide advices. At $20/month, I would use the service for something like three or four month, until I decide I'm ready enough. At $10/month, I would probably consider a permanent subscriptio…

> But $30/month is more that what I would give. For that price, I would expect to have a human teacher to review my progression from time to time and provide advices. That's less than half what it'd cost to hire a language tutor for a single hour.

Nope, you can hire for $20/per hour online.

Wot wot pip pip cheerio get the torch line's engaged eat some crisps there's a good chap.

That's not a mature response. I've look at your other comments and you look like you've made some worthwhile contribution but this comment is not what I visit HN daily for. I agree with te_chris, it is not only arrogant but incorrect to make that assumption. I don't actually mind using 'color', but you live in a small world if you think that only a certain accent is relevant.

Ah well, everybody has their off days.
