Show HN: Is Your Website Any Good? Instant AI-Customer Feedback for Any Website (testmywebsite.ai)

Hey HN! I built TestMyWebsite - it analyzes your website's content and tells you - in a nutshell - if your website is "any good".

Startups and bigger companies alike often struggle with getting their point across in a clear and relevant way. The result is corporate gibberish and generic-sounding marketing blah with zero relevance to the target customer.

TestMyWebsite is your sounding board to make sure you don't fall into that trap.

I frequently use website testing tools such as GTMetrix, but they only analyze the speed and technical aspects of my website. This app will analyze the content from your target audience's perspective to understand if it's clear, relevant, and well-written, and come up with improvement tips.

Feedback so far has only been from friends & family, so I'm very curious to see if the app provides value to the HN community. It currently works best for homepages, but I'm considering expanding it to landing pages, ad campaigns, eCommerce pages, etc., if there is a need.



From the Show HN rules:

> Please make it easy for users to try your thing out, ideally without barriers such as signups or emails

Also, having a demo on your landing page that asks a user to fill out a bunch of stuff and only after that demands an email address in order to see the results is a very annoying dark pattern. Be up front with the data you're requiring to use your tool.


Hey there - appreciate the input. There's API costs involved for us to run the analysis, and I got spammed pretty fast after running some early tests - hence the validation via email. Open for feedback on how to run the validation without a signup. For me, this seemed the most user-friendly + fastest way.

That's good input on the "dark pattern" - I'll add a note in the beginning to inform users about that.
