Guys what do you think?

signing up was taking too long, i meant the profile/background questions could have popped up after am signed in …i almost felt discouraged…some dont have the luxury of signing up long form…i once faced that criticism too… three stages …geez!

3

phew! finally done…will login to c wat u have got…

4

not bad though…reminded me of a better nairaland…very simple and straight forward…all the best… @vikto

5

Okay will check the sign up, you can check again.

Yomi thanks so do you think anything is wrong with the signup process.

7

nothing is actually wrong, just that the process is too long…i just felt some question could come up while am logged in…i was anxious to sign-in…

I agree with @simply_yomi. The sign up process is too tedious! After managing to finish the three simple signup steps, i was then told to confirm my email before i could login :neutral_face:.
Thats wayyyyy too much work for a product i don’t even yet understand.

Also

Btw what does this even mean? I’ve read this a number of times and still don’t understand what it is you do.

Seriously Nigerians (generally people) don’t like filling so much forms cos maybe they believe u are taking too much private info…I was at UNILAG some months ago, a guy was interested in signing up but seeing about 9-10 form fields scared him off…now imagine a three step form…lol…

If you are not an institution like the government(or any of its parastatals), a university, examination body, etc(you get my point!), you cannot get me(and most people) to endure a 3-step form.

The above exceptions can afford a form and UI design as old as 1994 and yet you must endure whatever because well, you must.

Sherlock thanks for stopping by yeah. I agree, sonething wrong with signup as noted by Yomi, but when you say what does it mean. Don’t get you. Can clarify thanks.

13

Akindolu there was a skip option to the last 2 forms. Maybe making the SKIP link more visible will help. Thanks

@simply_yomi that’s interesting lol.

15

Will check it out

16

yea it was surprising…lol…

I meant you weren’t very clear describing your product. There’s too much marketing speak. Upon trying it out, its actually a forum.

As a prospective user, this description is really confusing. Products that spread by word of mouth are usually very easy to explain to people. Hope this helps.

PS: Good job on the UI though, pretty decent :+1:.

Okay I understand what you mean now, it’s nice to know that matters too, seem some work needs to done on that description. About the UI :smiley: thanks again.
