It sounds kind of anachronistic, although I think there might be some markets for that outside of this bubble. If you're looking for critique, I think your landing page is extremely noisy for such a simple idea. You'd probably get better traction with a more focused design.

That is very helpful feedback. I will optimise that in a couple of hours.

Hmmmm interesting. I thought this was the perfect time for this, but you may be right based on the attention I have received for the product or maybe it's because of my noisy landing page.

TBH I mostly use LinkedIn for this kind of thing. I do have a resume for the odd occasion I need it but LI mostly suffices. It's hard for me to know whether it would gain traction outside of my demographic, and so I can only speak narrowly.

Agreed, all my network participants said the same thing: they prefer LinkedIn.

Their only reason for supporting something like this was that they bought a domain they liked, and now to have something on those domains without the stress of managing hosting and coding, they would use that, since their domain are sitting idle in their registrar.
