Thanks for the feedback, Matt. Makes a lot of sense.
About your last point, could you give me a little more information on this? I already stated that I noticed X problem from running my other business. Anything else I could put in there to maybe build some trust for those who might be a little uncertain of dealing with a business in another country?
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.
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?
I would suggest the opposite. Learning a new language will do you good. I use Django, because the documentation was really good for my level of experience (I had tried couple of Perl frameworks before, but never got my head around them - Django was explained a lot better). Now I know Python - its not hard to learn, and once you know some idioms its way more expressive than Java. Scala might be a good option. Then you use the same ecosystem, but learn a more expressive language.
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.
I personally found that moving from Perl to Python, I gained a lot, despite taking on a new language. Django was way better documented (for relative newcomers to web programming) than the Perl options I tried, and the Admin application got me up and running with something usable pretty quickly.
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.
The best way I have dealt with these in the past is to tell recruiters and companies that you can only do one date for phone interviews. That way you can plan 4-5 calls in one day.
Far from what recruiters and companies say if they are serious in hiring you they will respect this. They understand you have a job and that whilst you are working for them it is inappropriate for you to be on the phone.
(Doing this is a good way to see if a company really wants you. If you are their ideal candidate they will wait for you to become free).
Failing that you can either arrange first thing in the morning or last thing in the work day. That way you can start a little early or later without causing too much hassle for the recruiter.
Failing that, you need to try and arrange on your lunch breaks (guessing you get an hour or so).
A paper version of a sat nav.
Essentially its a book with a picture of all the roads. A reader will be able to use it on the go to see where they are trying to get to.
