Deleted comments BTO

In January 2017 I started using Easy Digital Downloads plugin to track how many people download List of BTO projects (free) and List of BTO prices ($30, 10 cents/BTO). Over 500 people downloaded free list until September 2019 when I put price $1 with a message “contact me if you want it FREE”, and when people contacted me I informed them about other (bigger) databases are available.

My strategy was to offer a couple of small databases for free hoping that will encourage people to pay for BIG databases afterwards, but it turned to have opposite effect: people downloaded FREE ones just because they were free, not because they were interested in data offered, or disappointed by small amount of data included in free databases, went away and never purchased any paid database afterwards, while the ones who purchased paid databases, they did this directly without testing with a free one first.

    1. What is this? A pre-announcement? As you can see, NO EXACT LAUNCH DATE is displayed so stop asking about launch date!
      HDB launches were always after 20th of month, seems that we do not have luck to have an earlier launch so we expect the same. This means that they can launch even on 30th November because it is still “in second half of month”
