Visitors send a message, you read it, and your site stays static.&lt;/p&gt;&#10;&lt;h2 id="what-it-does"&gt;What it does&lt;/h2&gt;&#10;&lt;ul&gt;&#10;&lt;li&gt;Accepts a name, an email, and a message.&lt;/li&gt;&#10;&lt;li&gt;Catches bots with an invisible trap field and field-level spam rules, so real people see no challenge.&lt;/li&gt;&#10;&lt;li&gt;Keeps the origin check on the server, so only your site can submit.&lt;/li&gt;&#10;&lt;/ul&gt;&#10;&lt;h2 id="what-you-see"&gt;What you see&lt;/h2&gt;&#10;&lt;p&gt;A running total of messages, plus a breakdown by any safe field you choose. The count is blunt and honest: it is the number of messages you received, nothing more.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Waiting list</title><link>https://www.far-end.eu/use-cases/waiting-list/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://www.far-end.eu/use-cases/waiting-list/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;A waiting list is a single field plus a count. far-end keeps both simple and honest.&lt;/p&gt;&#10;&lt;h2 id="what-it-does"&gt;What it does&lt;/h2&gt;&#10;&lt;ul&gt;&#10;&lt;li&gt;Collects an email address, and nothing else unless you ask for it.&lt;/li&gt;&#10;&lt;li&gt;Rejects duplicate signups from double clicks and retries.&lt;/li&gt;&#10;&lt;li&gt;Shows the size of the list on your page, live.&lt;/li&gt;&#10;&lt;li&gt;Tracks a fixed number of seats, so a limited list stays limited.&lt;/li&gt;&#10;&lt;/ul&gt;&#10;&lt;h2 id="what-you-see"&gt;What you see&lt;/h2&gt;&#10;&lt;p&gt;A total number of signups, the seats taken and left, and an optional day by day view, so you can see how interest builds after a launch or a post.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Feedback</title><link>https://www.far-end.eu/use-cases/feedback/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://www.far-end.eu/use-cases/feedback/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;Feedback forms work best when they ask one thing. far-end stores the answer and lets you see the shape of it.&lt;/p&gt;&#10;&lt;h2 id="what-it-does"&gt;What it does&lt;/h2&gt;&#10;&lt;ul&gt;&#10;&lt;li&gt;Takes a rating or a short comment.&lt;/li&gt;&#10;&lt;li&gt;Keeps the entry point tiny, so more people finish it.&lt;/li&gt;&#10;&lt;li&gt;Groups answers only by the safe fields you choose.&lt;/li&gt;&#10;&lt;/ul&gt;&#10;&lt;h2 id="what-you-see"&gt;What you see&lt;/h2&gt;&#10;&lt;p&gt;A count of responses and a breakdown by rating. Very small groups are folded into an &amp;ldquo;other&amp;rdquo; bucket, so a rare answer cannot point back to a person.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Newsletter signups</title><link>https://www.far-end.eu/use-cases/newsletter/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://www.far-end.eu/use-cases/newsletter/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;A newsletter signup is a waiting list with a longer horizon. far-end stores the email and returns a count you can trust.&lt;/p&gt;&#10;&lt;h2 id="what-it-does"&gt;What it does&lt;/h2&gt;&#10;&lt;ul&gt;&#10;&lt;li&gt;Collects an email address with one field.&lt;/li&gt;&#10;&lt;li&gt;Ignores duplicate signups from retries.&lt;/li&gt;&#10;&lt;li&gt;Lets you show a live subscriber count on your site.&lt;/li&gt;&#10;&lt;/ul&gt;&#10;&lt;h2 id="what-you-see"&gt;What you see&lt;/h2&gt;&#10;&lt;p&gt;A total number of subscribers, plus a breakdown by any safe field you choose.&lt;/p&gt;&#10;&lt;h2 id="why-it-is-safe"&gt;Why it is safe&lt;/h2&gt;&#10;&lt;p&gt;The email is stored because a newsletter needs it. It is never logged and cannot be used to build statistics. Nothing about your visitors is shared with third parties, and there are no trackers on the page.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
