One bit of user feedback validated my whole idea...

I launched Ferguson last week and gained around 50 new users.

After a week or so, I wanted to know what people thought of Ferguson and how they found its responses when auditing their own landing pages... so I decided to send out a quick email to ask.

I never really expect to hear anything back but I got a response that made my day, I summarized the whole email as a testimonial with the author's permission, here's their feedback:

"Ferguson's findings actually differ from what you get from a regular AI. I tried Claude against my website first and Ferguson was better. I'm a Java developer, not an SEO specialist, so the report was priceless for me. There are a lot of solo devs who are experts in their field but absolute beginners at conversion and SEO. Those people need something like Ferguson."

That response really helped validate what I'd been thinking throughout the development of Ferguson. The thing is, I know the site is better than just using a regular LLM but until I'd actually released it into the wild I had no idea if other people would realize it too.

That one email helped to validate the whole idea.
