aghhelmuton Bug Blindness

Reading the first part of the article I thought it was about real bugs and I was like "Wow we are surrounded by hundreds to thousands of bugs a week, but are blind to them somehow".

aghhelmuton Show HN: ImageTool – An image tool for web developers

No, it's only accessible after signup. Generating images with AI and converting them is resource-heavy, so I didn't want people and bots to just randomly access the site.

Hope it's not an instant turnoff!

aghhelmuton Show HN: Use Quizzes as Lead Magnets – EmbedQuiz

Thank you, I hope so!

Yes, there was a 10-minute downtime on the landing page, but we are back now!

aghhelmuton Show HN: Use Quizzes as Lead Magnets – EmbedQuiz

Yes, it's true that, in some cases, this can be frustrating! The goal of this "lead magnet quiz" is to make the traditional lead magnets, where you give your email address to get a free PDF, etc., make a bit more personal and unique for each visitor.

If you are interested in a workout plan, maybe you don't want to read a long PDF and found out yourself which paragraphs are relevant for your lifestyle, fitness goal, and body type and which are not for you. In this case, the goal of the quiz is to cut out all the unnecessary parts of the PDF and send you what you have to do. People are using lead magnets like this with a simple subscription, so I guess the quiz shouldn't be much more frustrating.

I added a feature, that enables users to add a "Skip subscription, get my results!" button to the quiz. In this case, the quiz will immediately show the user the results. Of course, the whole subscription thing can be turned off and in that case, the player will always receive the results after answering the questions.

And also, thank you for the idea, the discount code is amazing, I'm going to use this somewhere on the landing page!

Yes, it would be much better! I didn't add it to the homepage, because I didn't want people to end up playing with the quiz, instead of trying out the builder themselves. But you are right, I'm going to integrate a clickable quiz into the homepage somehow!

Thank you for the feedback, yes, the homepage needs some adjustments! I was thinking about adding an example quiz to the homepage, but I didn't want people to end up spending too much time playing wit the quiz, instead of trying out the builder themselves.

I didn't focus on the front page too much in the past weeks, I was satisfied with the current conversion rate, but now I should spend more time helping visitors better understand what EmbedQuiz is about.

It's truly an awesome project! The design is simple, yet beautiful and the illustrations are easy to understand. I kinda like the way it looks the same on desktop and mobile. Nowadays we don't often see solutions like this, but the UX is great on both devices!
