Some small businesses don't require a full online store. I'm putting my wife as an example. I agree that $15/month savings is not a big deal, but overtime, it will be. I also noticed that most customers don't care about how the site looks, as long as it's functional and they can do their purchase.
$15/month savings can be spent in FB/Instagram ads or something that can drive more customers. In 3 months, you save $45 or $180/year.
I'm also planning allow users to add multiple stores. The site is hosted in DO and can scale up easily.
True. There are a few comments here about improving the landing page. I need to put more context into it and explain what it does and the value for the users. Thanks for your feedback. I appreciate it. :-)
That's right. You will end up having a bill of $14/month in total instead of $29 for the basic plan. TinyStore doesn't offer much customization atm. You can add pages, announcement banner, logo and social handles. With more feedback from users, I can improve the store with more features in the future.
