I think that goes completely against the whole point of the website, it's a platform where you can let people know your interested in finding a new job without your employer finding out about it.
I think he was being sarcastic.
Some feedback: 1. About the name: Non-native speakers may not know what "poach" means. I've lived in California for four years in the past and I was confused. 2. The cartoon fox looks like it's about to steal my mouse. It looks like you're trying to sell me lockpicking tools... 3. I think you should better explain what recruiters get out of this versus what LinkedIn offers. 4. Your landing page is really two landing…
Just curious about your fourth point above... Why do you think two landing pages would be better? I've seen this approach used on a number of other sites that are seemingly successful, and am debating the single landing page approach for a project of mine, so I would be interested to hear the pros and cons.
People scan sites for unfamiliar services very quickly. Having the pricing so close to the free service is likely to confuse some subset of readers.

Somebody pushing resume's is motivated to figure out each site. Not the usual driveby broswer conversion.
if you work for a small company (10-200), displaying the company name basically destroys any anonymity. why display your current company name?
When you sign up, they have a question "does your company have less than 10 employees", which is presumably to deal with this issue. Of course, 10 is a pretty low cutoff for this question.
I work at LinkedIn, so I think I'm reasonably qualified to provide my opinion. I'm certain that this won't work well. Charging $5 per profile view ($50 per 10) is simply outrageous. Most profiles will be junk or irrelevant - recruiters work very hard to sift through the chaff. Even of those that ARE relevant, there's a small chance they'll wind up working at your company. You'd have to have an unprecedented algorithm…
And it's waaaay out of date these days.

Charging $5 per profile view ($50 per 10) is simply outrageous. A lot of people are weighing in on the opinion that using agencies costs significantly more. As a Tech Recruiter working for one of those agencies, let me add some weight to your argument. Regardless of how niche the job I am trying to fill is, I will get hundreds of applicants and speak to dozens of people in order to send three suitable CV's to a job.…

Or they see requests to pleasepoach.me in their network logs, which depending on their resolution can nail you to a wall pretty easily.
Any company that punishes you for exploring your employment options probably isnt worth working for anyway
