As a CTO I would guess something from 4% - 6% some will get more depending on a number of factors. The thing is a CTO could get 10%, but if it is a bad idea or mismanaged then that 10% might be worth $0 after 4 years.
A well managed, great idea might still get you $0 but it might also get you $1,000,000. You never know. You have to way up if you think this idea is something which will be viable.
Surely you should know the problems if you are working for an anti-scraping company.... Anyway...
Most people who own small website dont necessarily know there website is being scrapped on a daily basis (talking sole traders, tiny businesses). If they are paying for adwords or local advertising through parish or county community websites then they may think they are getting bang for the buck than they actually think. If they get 10 visitors a day and 8 of those are scrapers what does this really mean for there advertising revenue. Obviously they should be basing there return on investment against revenue but still a website is seen as a big thing for most small businesses.
For a lot of people paypal is just fine and does the job they need it to do.
Its like the mac fan boys who comment on windows being crap. But for 90% of joe public it works and works well allowing them to edit word documents and browse the interweb. Its just the loud mouthed 10% who like to cry their balls off and tell people what they are using is wrong.
Instead of having an about page why not just remove it and make your contact page a little more personal than just an email link?
After looking over it I really dont think the about page is really going to offer much value to your service. But a more personal contact page would be where I would spend the time.
On the contact page explain that saasymetrics is a startup and that you are trying to solve X problem and you encourage people to get in contact with you.
* You need to make the signup stand out more. Even put it at the top of the page.
* Some top nav links to items further down the page are required. Looks like they have just got lost somewhere.
* Offer more features under the payment plans. Things like ssl by default, Real time metrics, 30 day rolling contract. Any thing that explains what you get for your money.
* About page. Include more images, make it a little less corporate and wordy.
* About page: without sounding racist some people will be put off you are based in india might be worth just stating your a startup and you noticed X problem.
Yes learning is good but if her/him is looking to build something fast and get the job done learning a new language whilst doing this is not really very feasible.
There is the time for development and the time for learning.
This question is asked a lot. Basically choose the language first then worry about the framework.
There is no magic bullet so use the programming language which you can code the best, faster, easiest in. Framework is second.
Django, Rails, <insert php framework here> all do the same thing. 90% of the time you are going to be fighting fires, so develop in the language you like.
* You are a java developer why not use a java framework?
Dont worry, whats done is done. You now need to move on. You should use your remaining time to document your work to make your leave as trouble free as possible and reduce the chance of the company trying to contact you in the future.
