What state was this in?

Would love to see the conversion rate from visit to creat, visit to download and visit to provide email. I suspect you're going to have a super high email capture conversion because of the value …

Looks awesome. Have reviewed a ton of website builders and this is one of the easier ones. Only problem is when I hit the download button the .txt file is blank.
