Ha! Interestingly, I just sent you guys a long mail about your pricing.
I think per unique visitor is relatively easier than per visit because an additional visit does not even tie to additional value.
The fact that you capture a lot of data from so many people (which costs you) does not mean that it brings value to me.
It is also important to remember that you are not prison in isolation but in comparison to your competitors. In your case, it is KISSmetrics and Mixpanel.
It is not something you can get perfect at one go. It has to keep evolving. You have a great product.
Interesting. With regards to the unit of pricing, our thinking was quite the opposite. There's a high variance in value across your userbase, but our previous (per-user) model would price them the same. This was an issue.
We tried to match a user's value as closely as possible by pricing per visit (instead of per user). This assumes, of course, that the frequency of a user's visits correlates closely with their overall value, which is certainly imperfect in some cases.
Oga thanks for Gbedu! I may have just discovered my new source for workout music...I have been using an app I built to make using youtube mega mixes easy to listen to during workout (http://mobile.holoklip.com)
