Hi,

I'd like your opinion on http://www.DailyDomainer.com

The primary purpose of the site is to motivate visitors to subscribe to the Daily Domainer (a daily newsletter about domains). Does the site achieve that goal? How do you like the design and copy? Any suggestions for improvement?

Thanks!

SUCKS!!!!!!.....sucks that i didn't come up with this! The domain name is great, the idea is great, the site is not too bad, should be placed in the middle of the screen, you're on the left side. The visual is not bad, straight forward and to the point, nothing left to guess, your intention is clear from the get-go. I like that! However, i would beef up the design a bit, make a bit more newspaper like. The Daily Domainer is newspaper style judging by the title, i'd fly with that. Look at the bigger newspapers out there and get some ideas from their homepages.

Only a few problems that i see coming your way:
you're asking for a sign up to a daily news letter, what keeps users coming back to your site though? I'd deliver return content on the site as well, and stock it up with a newsletter.

Daily: that's a shitload of work you're adding to your day. What topics/content are you going to deliver DAILY to the inboxes? Unless you have constant RSS feeds pertaining to domaining, you're going to need quite some staff or a 28hr workday (if you do it yourself) to keep up with a daily newsletter. You need to avoid (at all costs) to become too repetitive and stale. Unless you're delivering daily expiration reports, i'd be tuning it down and make it a weekly newsletter, more content - more meat - more readers - higher advertising dollars.

Just my .02 though, let me know when you go live, i'll sign up and check it out - you definitely got my vote!

Wow, I must say great work. Simple design, simple images, simple everything. But it has a nice and easy feeling to the website. Easy on the eyes, easy to read.
Very nice job, you can count me in for the newsletter

The Daily Domainer site was only launched yesterday and the first issue went out at 6 AM this morning! I will get a more professional "look" for the website as soon as possible, and Mike's comments are fab for ideas!

Thanks again guys for the positive input!
