This to me, is not a sideproject which belongs on HN. This is a landingpage with a mailinglist. I see it says &quot;Copyright © GigYard 2013. All Rights Reserved&quot; on the bottom. In four(++) months a sideproject should be more than this, at least when posting it as a &quot;Show HN&quot;.<p>I totally understand that a sideproject entales a lot of work in regards to creating a business plan, doing market research etc. The thing is, we who click your link don&#x27;t really see that. We see the product. Which in this case, is not there.<p>I hope you appreciate direct criticism, please don&#x27;t take it personally.<p>edit: clarification &amp; typo

The term &#x27;Gig&#x27; is a registered service mark (held by Fiverr) for uses related to &quot;Operating on-line marketplaces for sellers of goods and&#x2F;or services&quot; [1]<p>While this might not be a big consideration right now, this is almost a guaranteed loss in a UDRP&#x2F;WIPO case against your domain, since you&#x27;re in a very similar space. It might be a good idea to weigh your options prior to launch, as rebranding will inevitably become more difficult as you acquire users.<p>[1] <a href="http://i.imgur.com/bzXgIDi.png" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;bzXgIDi.png</a>

Two quick notes: The h3 subheading type is so thin it borders on unreadable on my display (HP LP2065). And I&#x27;d rephrase &quot;There&#x27;s no shame in asking for help. And with GigYard it isn&#x27;t a hassle either.&quot; into positive expressions - a study I&#x27;ve read a few years ago has shown that people subconsciously parsing texts often filter negations away together with other filler words (leaving only &quot;shame asking help. GigYard hassle.&quot;). Therefore it&#x27;s usually better to phrase things positively if you call for action.

This hurts me eyes:<p><a href="http://snappy-app.com/s/show.php?pass=8a7b5c9965cf420c8a070a41ea17ad1a" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;snappy-app.com&#x2F;s&#x2F;show.php?pass=8a7b5c9965cf420c8a070a...</a><p>Also, like michaelmcmillan, this is not a Show HN, but a landing [age for email sign ups.

Copywriter here. I can&#x27;t tell who I&#x27;m supposed to be hiring by reading. From the pictures, I&#x27;m guessing GigYard is a place to hire dog walkers, chefs, and landscapers. Perhaps you could be more specific on what a &quot;gig&quot; is? Unless your target market is musicians or freelancers, your audience isn&#x27;t sure what it means.<p>The first rule of copywriting is to highlight benefits, not features. So don&#x27;t rave about your powerful search that can filter by territory, hours, or experience. Say how users can easily hire skilled workers when and where they are needed.<p>Also, how is this different than task rabbit? Is hiring local service providers a problem in need of solving? Do people really need or want this?

I think this is a great idea, connecting individuals for those gigs that you feel some business will overcharge for, nice one!

Good morning HN! This is the first of my side projects to make it into public view. Let me know what you think.
