Show HN: Developed a small web-app in 6 days. Help me make it better.

I'm happy to answer any technical questions about the app. It's pretty boring though, LAMP stack, jQuery.
The other thing I would kill for is any ideas on how to market this. How to market it, and to whom. I can run around to all the local creches and nurseries with flyers etc, but in terms of online marketing... I don't have a lot of ideas.

i think best way to let user know about your app is by making it free and running it on beta until you have irresistible feature in the app.
by then your will be having quite enough users who can signup for premium services.
even writing technical blog about how you implemented the app will drive users in for testing the app that is really great way for getting feedback and improving features.
creating plugin for popular frameworks and cms will also add a value and you will soon see users using it.
if you have enough users or customer you will soon see people getting interested in investing in the project
hope this help

>We remove all the drudgery in managing lists manually. At $4.95 per queue...
I wouldn't put a price tag in the description so quickly. Most won't understand what you're up to until 3-4 sentences in, and you're already asking for money.
Hope that is helpful.

Huh. I guess that does clang a bit. I suppose the more frequently used approach is to sell sell sell, raise expectations, and then drop the curtain and reveal the pricing.
Thanks for the tip, will think about how I can re-work it.

i think the app is good may be a little bit of the design improvement and making the app completely free will grub some attentions.
may be making it as service with apis to queue from a java scripts which can be used in static sites
Thanks Yunus. The design is definitely pretty bare ... TODO.
I'm not so sure about giving it APIs, I think the target market will be mainly non-technical. But I suppose given an API, the application could perhaps be leveraged in ways that I cannot anticipate right now. Interesting idea, thank you.

You add an API; someone builds a mobile app for it; your users find your service more useful; you retain/win more customers.
OK. I'm not accustomed to that level of optimism :-)
But I see what you're saying.
One API coming up.

It doesn't revolutionize the world or anything, and it will be very surprising if it makes a cent, but it's up and live and I'm proud of it - not too bad for a week of work.
