Feedback

Feedback you need, from people you can trust.

Quality feedback helps you improve your site and that improves your sales.

You could take your chances and ask for feedback on various public forums. Or, you can ask the StartupToDo.com community to do a Site Review, using a sophisticated set of easily rated questions. No more hit and miss. No more painful, vague criticisms where your customers can find them months and years later.

The more Site Reviews you do in StartupToDo.com, the closer to the top of the list of requested reviews your Site Request ends up.

Graph of points and progess

Results you can measure are results that matter.

Every Guide you finish (or write), every Site Review you do (or request), every action you take in StartupToDo.com is worth Points. Points measure what you've accomplished.

If you've earned 37 points this week and 30 last, you're moving in the right direction.

And if your StartupToDo.com Friends are averaging 40 points this week, you may want to find that URL to a cool, useful site, write it up as a Resource to help other members, and pick up 3 more points.

In conventional bootstrapping, it's extremely hard to tell if and when you're making progress. In StartupToDo.com, it all counts and it's all good.

From rating Guides, Requested Guides, Resources, Events and Tips with a single click, to Groups - from Azure to Zope - where you can meet other members, to member-only online special events, StartupToDo.com let's you participate as much or as little as you want.
