@Jonathon – It was my pleasure. It’s a very cool application and something the marketplace has missed at this price level (or frankly any reasonable level for small businesses) for some time. What’s particularly nice about it is the fact that the questions reflect true customer satisfaction and “purchase intent” (even though what defines a purchase might change by site).

I also think that most small business owners should make sure their site is built right first – correct what’s most fundamental on their sites – then evaluate the cost-benefit of more advanced activities.

Thanks, both of you, for great dialogue and great offerings. Keep up the good work!
