Day 1 Round Up

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to our RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

It’s been a pretty good start for us at BeerChief having launched in BETA mode earlier today.

We’ve had about 25 sign ups and hundreds of unique visitors. About 140 people received an email informing them BeerChief was now up and running. I blogged about it on my own personal blog, but apart from that, there hasn’t been any promotion.

So although it’s a very low key affair, it’s hugely important. We’ve received some wonderful comments and suggestions and we’re already acting on them… in fact, i’ll list some changes we’ve made today:

  • Added more Beers to our beer section
  • Created a smaller header (filesize-wise) to decrease page loading time
  • Made certain mandatory fields on the sign up form not mandatory
  • Renamed several features and pages to more appropriate names
  • Fixed an error in auto emails being sent out after joining an event

Those changes were all based on feedback from members. We’re working on other stuff too…

Getting it right won’t be an overnight thing, it won’t be easy, but if we continue to act on feedback and formulate plans for future improvments, we’ll get there eventually.

Don’t forget BeerChief has been in the making for 18 months, so we’re in this for the long haul - and we’re gonna make it a success at all costs, even if it does take us time :mrgreen:
