  5. Absolutely agree on this one with you. We are working on similar product http://elastic.io and it's clear that in this business (IFTTT, Zapier, elastic.io, FoxWeave.com, etc) you need to work on two customers - business customers who pay and developers who are platform multipliers. That's the reason Zapier and IFTTT are trying to open up. Important is however business users (who pay) do not need 'developers' view on…

  7. Good points are covered in this blog post, however what if we would push it even further? Why would people need to download a package? Why would anybody need to learn a programming language you package designed for (or assume you distribute packages for many programming language)?

  9. Again, please spell API correctly. It's an acronym, not a word. Second, your jargon is for yourselves. You need to speak in the language of your customers. 1. What is a Writing Room? 2. What is a Content Query API? 3. What is managed content? Third, don't advertise your writing. "prismic.io is a different approach to content management" should be obvious and left unstated. By the way, this customer testimonial is no…

  11. I'm not the prismic.io developer but I believe it depends on you - how you fetch the content fragments from prismic.io. We are doing it on the backend, so it's perfectly searchable by Google ;) See here - http://www.elastic.io/blog/82796857416/why-we-chose-api-base...
