Show HN: My newest startup, Kiveve
Hey guys! Im so happy to announce the launch of my new startup, Kiveve.
Kiveve is a traffic exchange network created to help quality content bloggers and webmasters increase their traffic and therefore their revenue.
We are at our very early stages and we are now open for website application to join our network
I'd love to know what you think about it!
These are some of the most obnoxious headlines I've read in a while.
"If you are like Sweeet... Tell me more! Click Here" "Fancy Pants Algorithm" "Ninja Time Analytics"
I suppose there's a demographic that responds positively to that type of diction. If that's the case, you've done a good job of narrowing your target market.
Also, use more text and less text-images!
How can you send 2x traffic back to every site? Is this a click-based ponzi scheme
Feedback:
- Typos: "Kiveve is a traffice exchange platform. Basically, a way for you to multiply your sites visitors. That means, everytime you send us a visitor, we'll send you around twice as many back. We multiply your traffic. Free." - 'traffice' -> 'traffic' and 'sites' -> 'site's'. Remove the comma after 'that means'. 'around' -> 'about'
- After the "We multiply your traffic. Free" bit, it would be helpful to know how. Right now, my response isn't, "wow, tell me more!" but instead, "Free? Bullshit."
- text encoding issue in the next paragraph: I'm seeing "Kiveve�s" on OS X 10.7 w/ Safari.
- "Ninja Time Analytics" raises my hackles for the same reason that descriptions of developers as 'ninjas' or 'rockstars' does.
- "from the day 1 you put our widget in your site." -> "from the day you add our widget to your site." Also, make "add our widget" a link to your signup page.
- "Stay tunned to future upcoming features" -> "Stay tuned for updates."
Net net: I am skeptical but intrigued.
The first two sentences I read ended in ", huh?" It's very disorienting and feels unprofessional.

Thank you guys for all the great feedback. I really appreciate it! We apologize for the typos. English is not our first language eventhough that is not an excuse, we'll fix them right away! I know at the moment everything seems a bit abstract but we are working to make everything clear and transparent.
Lots of typos on the front page.
Also, bad math. 28638 received over 23634 sent is a 200.03% return rate? No. "Sent" and "received" are already very ambiguous - is "sent" what I sent you or what you sent me? But either way, it doesn't work out to a two-fold return.
Login link is broken. Good luck with the project, though! I'm viewing in Chrome and there are a lot of font spacing issues, and the "About" page looks like Times New Roman which I am assuming is unintentional.
What does the widget look like? Is it customizable? "Quality site" and "concerned with how new gadgets look/behave" tend to go together.
The form on http://www.kiveve.com/webmasters/start/ isn't working.
This reminds me of LinkExchange (Tony Hsieh's previous startup). Is it any different from that ?
Love the website design.

beautiful website. I see an font error here though. on chrome in lion
The desing is only good in the home page.
http://www.kiveve.com/webmasters/start/ have Times New Roman in one side and Arial in the other and Helvetica in the title; that doesn't match.
The FAQ is in another website and it haves very different colors with wierd line-heights.
Oh yeah, and the login button doesn't work.
28K->23K. How the hell is this a 200.3% return rate? More like a -17.9% return rate.
