The fastest way to build your waitlist page. Just fill out the form and... that's it! Get an easy-to-remember, professional url and start validating your idea!
Hey Product Hunt 👋
waitlist.rsvp aims to make the process of getting a waitlist page with a professional url frictionless.
1. Fill out the form
2. Get your waitlist.rsvp page (waitlist.rsvp/your-project-name)
3. Save your secret key
4. Start testing your idea!
The inspiration came from a personal pain point of mine. After a while of testing/building projects I realized I was spending too much time and money building waitlist pages for ideas (coding, buying a domain, hosting) only to take them down in a week or two. I needed a platform that would help me quickly create a few waitlist pages so that I can go test and iterate.
It does the job for me so I thought it would be useful for you all. It was written in a fairly quick and scrappy way so if you have any requests, I’d be happy to improve the experience for you - all feedback is welcome :)
Congrats! I like how you made it super easy to get started to reduce the sign-up friction.
My feedback:
#1. Having to type URLs for images means I have to have it hosted somewhere already... I know it costs you money to host images but that's a big friction. Because I don't see a recommended dimension or get image previews, I have no idea what images work best.
#2. Similar to #1, because I can't preview my landing page, it is not easy to pick the color palette. Also, the default button text color should be #FFF if you present the default button color as #000.
#3. Social links are not validated, so I was able to enter random URLs. People who trust the icon might accidentally get redirected to a malicious site.
#4. Instead of showing the key one time, maybe you can send me a page URL with the secret key in the param like Craiglist do so I can permanently bookmark it. Also, I have no idea how to edit my landing page afterward even after I save the secret key.
Keep building but make sure you get more user feedback!
@elishaterada thanks for the feedback 🙇
1/2 - i completely agree here, with this launch i wanted to get a better sense of if people prefer the flow of “fill out a form -> get a page” but if there is good signal then landing page previews are definitely at the top of the todo list
3/4 - these are great suggestions! my quick response to updating is that you should be able to go to waitlist.rsvp/your-project/update to modify or delete your waitlist page
thanks again for the thoughtful feedback! 🙏
@pradhit_gosula The social buttons are also limited to Twitter, Github, Linkedin & Discord.
Many businesses rely equally heavily on the other social platforms like Facebook, Tiktok, Pinterest, etc
Congratulations on the launch!
@elishaterada I hosted the links on Linkedin and it works in Firefox web & mobile, and chromium. Brave browser is probably taking a pass because it is choking on cookies.
this helps to solve so many of the pesky, yet often overlooked issues when launching your next product/service. the best part is while you build a community of raving fans around your project it can expose customer friction points. iron out the kinks from your next drop with a product like waitlist.rsvp
