tl:dr Glanced at your sight.
Is this being funded on KickStarter? If not you might consider kickstart just for the publicity. I'm never been one to down play the importance of good marketing. But I'm not a marketing guy so I can't say if that is your problem. I saw that you mentioned HTML,CSS, Javascript and Perl, do you have a provision for non-technical users/ non-programmers? Also while Perl is near and dear to our hearts, other languages such as PHP might appeal more to people who are building things on the web. (Yes everyone acknowledges that PHP is a flawed language but it has mind share in a certain demographic.) I saw you're planning on adding PHP but perhaps the fact that you don't have it now is part of your problem. Just my $0.02. Hope it helped and good luck with the site. -- David On Sat, Oct 13, 2012 at 7:12 PM, Alex Brelsfoard <[email protected]>wrote: > URL was incorrect.
