| Some ideas / thoughts: On viewing your site, my first thought was why am I being prompted to log in? I've just landed, the first thing I want to do is find my feet. I suggest maybe put a recently submitted playlist to the right of the main page. Then have a dialogue with a button with something like 'create playlist' to left. Allow people to create playlists anonymously if they want - then give them the ability to share it. That might encourage some people to stay on your site and generate content who otherwise may have left. I know you're aiming for social, but how about the ability for people (logged in) to vote up / down playlists being the more social aspect? Having names / titles for playlists as well, that way someone is likely to create more than one and give them proper labels that people can use in rating them. I'll be honest, I don't think I can picture myself using this app as is. If I want to share a song with people I know I'll likely send a link in an IM or put it in facebook. As you're probably aware of, there are plenty of places which do the whole music + social aspect already, so why should I use your service? How is it different and more worthwhile than simply sharing links on facebook / twitter? These are the kinds of important questions I'd ask myself. I think your application does have potential though. I'd say worry less about number of users or level feedback you have and more about the product you're creating at this early stage. The important thing is to keep doing stuff - keep adding features and refining it. |
