Good luck with the site Andrew, and well done. Coupla thoughts:

I have not looked at site admin functionality, but might do so soon.
It's the user's fault entirely, but imo you should vet email addresses and
at least make sure they are well formed. (email popup, you might enjoy the

Thanks Shane, yes, the idea is that until you verify your newly added site,
it doesn't go live.
This is to stop you from claiming that you single-handedly built Reddit or
Google.com, for that matter ; )
-- Presently, the only way to verify a site is the
default-Google-Webmaster-method of
IMO you should ditch the hard verification and replace it with a
community/trust/vote thing, Stack Overflow style. I no longer have access
to most of the sites I built because I'm an individual contributor, not an
agency. Most of the application-style sites would be built this way,

Seconded. I technically have access to all of my sites, but the idea of
uploading a file to the root directory just feels like pointless busy work
at the moment.

I am officially buying everyone on this thread a beer/coffee: awesome
feedback.
I'll allow sites to go live without verification, and fall back to
requiring verification only if there's a conflict. The

I completely second Craigs comment above. The fear of spam is so strong in

systems, and then no one even uses it let alone tries to abuse the system.

I'm sure there's a -phobia for fear of your startup being spammed/hacked -

Hi Andrew,
Mobile Apps / Software Applications... Other categories of things
needing centralised credits? I guess go for Games, too - they typically
have them, but are they centralised? Why the heck not.
You might want to take a look at http://www.mobygames.com/ for something
similar
Thanks Saxon. Yes, Games are covered by various sites to different levels
of depth and ease of use.
I'll work on adding Apps (Mobile Apps of any flavour) and Software (Desktop
and/or Enterprise) very shortly. Games can wait until Phase X, and other
software-type categories seem too small a

Hey AB,
Ok, I'm in. Landed on my Dashboard and then spent abt 5 mins clicking
around looking for how to add a web site.
On a cold start, you really wanna put the desired action front and centre.
In this case, the 'primary actions' are Adding my various online profiles
(Google, FB etc) Which,
Thanks Rai - great feedback - it's near-impossible to fully put yourself
into a brand new user's shoes... What's insanely obvious to me is outright
invisible to others...
-- I've demoted the section where you can add your other social profiles.
-- I've promoted the 'Add a New Site' to be first
Also, I tried after I sent last email out but was unable to add a site. Add
site modal disappears and I'm back on the 'home' page with nothing added.
Which I think is the same issue Alex reported.

Indeed. Debugged and good to go - you can Add a Site both via the modal in
the dashboard, and via the top nav.
Whew! Baptism by fire. Love it - keep it coming. Really appreciated.

@Craig: thanks for that. Fair call - I'm not wedded to the font by any
means, and as the site fills with content, the tone needs to change, also.
Any suggestions on a Google font that's not going to be instantly
out-of-fashion like some of the other ultralight Metro/iOS7
typefaces?
