Spendacoin Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 Hi Again All We were not happy at all with the last update so we went out and re-did the whole thing from scratch We are in the final stages of the new platform and while we add some finishing touches if any of you could be so kind as to have a look and let me know your thoughts, as you have in the past, it would be great help. Besides the Rewards Program already in place we've also added a Cashback Program where users can use Cashback awards to acquire some XRP too! I'm curious to know what the community thinks about this program and how we implemented it. We are testing the new platform now at a staging site and can be viewed currently at this address: http://612.569.myftpupload.com/ We are planing to update the current live site as soon as possible so any and all comments good, bad or indifferent will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance xrphilosophy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xrphilosophy Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 It's not called Ripple. It's called XRP. So, let's start with that... 1Ton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xh3b4sd Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 I would suggest to not click on such shady links here. Looks to me like some scam attempt. /cc @Mercury CarloRossi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spendacoin Posted May 19, 2018 Author Share Posted May 19, 2018 (edited) Ok thanks for the comments but please take it easy and don't jump to any crazy conclusions. This is definitely not a scam. What we're trying to accomplish are a few things and for those of you here we are trying to promote the Ripple (XRP) token so that it can hopefully gain some more stability in the markets, If you can't see that nor appreciate it then we're not getting the message out clear enough. So instead of jumping to conclusions and calling this some sort of a scam why not help us out a bit here and maybe this will be beneficial for everyone. I didn't ask for anyone to register or participate on the site yet. The address I sent you to for the critique is a temporary testing area which will disappear once we migrate it to the actual secure hosting address which already exists and is functional but we are not happy with that platform. Have a look: https://spendacoin.com/ Since the site will be addressing not only those of the Cryptocurrency Arena we felt it necessary to refer to Cryptocurrencies by name and symbol for 2 reasons. Many people still don't even know what a Cryptocurrency even is Of those who do we want to make sure there is no confusion between the name and the symbol As for the $50 worth of XRP for $75 we were told from someone who is selling them on other platforms that this is the amount he charges to people who want to buy some with US Dollars. The way he does it, and the way he showed us to do it, can vary and there are also fees involved. I would invite someone here (maybe you RippleHerTo Shred) to show me the least expensive way for us to acquire $50 worth of XRP and transfer it to someones wallet. Like I said where still in a testing phase and looking to correct any mistakes and/or content. One more thing if anyone has any ideas on how we can help this forum and XRP on the site please let us know. Again this site draws attention to people who still have no idea what a Cryptocurrency is and we are also trying to build a community of people to promote the uses of Cryptocurrencies that is why we have a few pages in there that might help this along. Have a look http://612.569.myftpupload.com/cryptocurrencies-101/ http://612.569.myftpupload.com/the-spendacoin-project/ Many people who are not involved nor have any Cryptocurrencies are pretty scared and skeptical. We even thought of a neat way for folks to acquire some Cryptocurrencies like XRP just by selling off some no longer stuff they have hanging around it their garage, basement or shed so that they can get involved on a small level without having any sort of great risk. This information is in the site and it's pretty easy to locate. I'm wondering if I should make that issue more prominent on the home page. Comments? Ideas? Once Again the web address 612.569.myftp....... is just a temporary address to work on the site before we push it over to the main secure hosting address. So please no need for alarm. We're serious about what we are doing and the products listed (except for a few that we play with in testing) are all real and exist that have been listed from some vendors that have already signed on.

nav Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 Your using Wordpress, which is fine, but consider using a hosting platform with a proprietary security system that can secure Wordpress websites. (WPEngine for example) Wordpress is notoriously insecure if it's not updated consistently Make sure to security audit any plugins you use Get an SSL certificate when you launch Give yourself an accessibility audit before launching Reconsider the Orange on Blue Logo Also consider getting a logo designer, or purchase a logo template It's very clear you purchased a Wordpress theme and made some minor adjustments. Consider getting a professional Wordpress Developer & Designer who can make the theme sing. The Mega-menu needs troubleshooting. It often closes prematurely due to hover state issues Add some padding around Product sub-categories. Sometimes the thumbnails bleed into eachother Troubleshoot the white wash effect used when loading. It didn't dismount after navigating to a product page http://612.569.myftpupload.com/cryptocurrencies-101/ not liking the bold text throughout.

Spendacoin Posted May 19, 2018 Author Share Posted May 19, 2018 Thank you for the comments. Your using Wordpress, which is fine, but consider using a hosting platform with a proprietary security system that can secure Wordpress websites. (WPEngine for example) Yes it is a Wordpress Theme. We have a developer on hand that handle the upgrade as soon as it is needed. We don't see the need to go to that extreme at the moment because we need to see the reaction from users first so that we can make the neccessary changes in that direction. Wordpress is notoriously insecure if it's not updated consistently Yes we are are aware of this too and have that under control with the host Make sure to security audit any plugins you use Yes of course Get an SSL certificate when you launch Already in place. There is a live site already https://spendacoin.com/ Give yourself an accessibility audit before launching OK will do Reconsider the Orange on Blue Logo OK Also consider getting a logo designer, or purchase a logo template OK It's very clear you purchased a Wordpress theme and made some minor adjustments. Consider getting a professional Wordpress Developer & Designer who can make the theme sing. Yes, we have one ready as soon as we need it The Mega-menu needs troubleshooting. It often closes prematurely due to hover state issues Ok Thanks we'll look into that Add some padding around Product sub-categories. Sometimes the thumbnails bleed into eachother Noted. We'll have a look Troubleshoot the white wash effect used when loading. It didn't dismount after navigating to a product page Ok Thanks we'll look into that http://612.569.myftpupload.com/cryptocurrencies-101/ not liking the bold text throughout. Yes that page has been updated already'for the migration but I'll have it updated on the staging site ASAP May I ask what you think about he content in general and about the rewards we're offering to draw attention to the use of XRP and Cryptocurrencies in general. In other words do you like the concept? Again Thank you for those comments, greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
