Why don’t you read why they did that. Instead you responded with your own reasoning without countering or responding to there reasoning. I actually agree with you but the article has actual points that you didn’t bother to read or reference.

Like this:

Frankly for a site like this efficient use of space and multi tasking isn’t as important for a front page. A front page needs to be optimized to be in your face to understand what posthog is in as little time as possible then give you optional pathways to dig in for more detail. A website that’s like an OS is too busy, it’s optimized for productivity and I still have no idea what posthog does exactly.

Multi-tasking? With About pages, Blog posts, pricing, etc.

I have no doubt there is a subset of features here that could be implemented as a single page app.

		Disagree. Most people don’t care about blog posts. Most of those are for SEO. It’s the beginning of a pipeline that flows from multiple endpoints. A person can directly enter in the url that’s one endpoint. Another person can do a Google search and fine the blog that’s another end point. All of those flows funnel the person in a singular direction with a single purpose: a purchase. Like what else do you want the customer to do? Go off on a tangent? You can have multiple flows that loop back to a purchase but it’s much less predictable that way. Better to have a singular proven flow all the way to a purchase and that flow has to provide clarity on what the product is. I come to the posthog website and I’m confused. This is a toy. It’s cool I can meander around and in time discover what the site does. I mean it’s ok. A better site is one where I just look at the site I know what it’s for and I know the product. As I scroll down I see other tidbits or widgets that are like testimonials or proven examples and other things that convince me to buy. Finally I hit the pricing page. That’s a better way to sell. Post hog is a cool site but not an efficient one. Not an efficient site for selling a product.

		> I have no doubt there is a subset of features here that could be implemented as a single page app. Is this a joke? Posthog sells an app, sure, but their product site shouldn't be an "app" it all. It's an SEO funnel. No one should spend any amount of time on there except to figure out what the heck Posthog is and how much it costs.

I read it in full before posting. Writing about something doesn't make it a better idea afterwards.

		Then why did you go off on your own tangent without responding or refuting his points?
