To start off with, the navigation menu on the creativechain website is in Spanish even when it's set to English.
Now to get to the heart of the matter. I have held creativecoin for over a year, hoping to see this project at a 50 - 100m dollar marketcap. Those hopes have slowly dwindled, due to a number of major concerns that have not been properly addressed.
The first concern is the website. Go to any other successful project's website and you'll quickly gain a simple understanding of their project, but on creativechain's site you get vague statements that don't actually say anything! "The decentralized creative community" is using an H1 tag for fucks sake. That's terrible for SEO optimization. An H1 tag is supposed to be used to describe the
main content of the site - not to make a vague statement stand out even more.
Let's take a look at
www.ethereum.org: The very first thing that users see is the logo, name, and a short description of WHAT IT IS.
Ethereum Logo > Ethereum > Blockchain App Platform.
Now let's scroll down on the creativechain website. The next section is devoted to downloads. This is quite stupid, really. Why would a potential user want to download anything at this point? They know nothing about the project. They scrolled down to get more information because the first section didn't tell them anything, and they got download links for a product that they know nothing about.
Now let's scroll down on the Ethereum site, what do we see?
Build unstoppable applications
Ethereum is a decentralized platform that runs smart contracts: applications that run exactly as programmed without any possibility of downtime, censorship, fraud or third-party interference.
These apps run on a custom built blockchain, an enormously powerful shared global infrastructure that can move value around and represent the ownership of property.
To the right of this description of what Ethereum (and blockchain) is, we get an animation demonstrating the difference between traditional server architecture.
Scroll down and we continue to get more information on the project, with some download links thrown in as well.
This is just what Ethereum's site looks like without clicking anything. If the user wants more information, there's a whole bunch of documentation, or videos to watch.
Now let's scroll down on creativechain's site:
The descriptions of what creativechain is need a lot of work, and the accompanying visuals are useless. That's wasted space and a wasted opportunity.
Moving forward, this project needs an entirely re-designed website that follows the rules of good visual design and search engine. It should be simple, yet informative, and graphics should contribute to educating the viewer.
A poorly designed website isn't all that's wrong with the project though.
This project has had no marketing. There isn't an explainer video, the devs don't release videos talking about updates, and there is no sense of community created.
You REALLY need to take a look at Substratum for an example on how to market and build a strong community.
I understand that I'm being a dick, but I've made "nice" post in the past. That didn't work. Creativecoin's marketcap is 2 million - that's shit. Even after a year, and the release of the mainnet, there still isn't a video. There still isn't sufficient information on the team. There has to be changes made. You guys have to realize that as things are now, it isn't looking good.
In one of the only videos about creativecoin on Youtube, from earlier this year, the reviewer wasn't able to get the Beta working. So the only impression of creativecoin on Youtube is of your project NOT EVEN WORKING, and you have done nothing to change that! That is seriously NOT good.
I know that I'm being a dick, but you also know that I'm right, so do something about it if you want this project to succeed.
