Clearly, how we’re marketing Recipeasly doesn’t demonstrate that respect at all. We missed the mark big time and I’m sorry.

It’s worth clarifying, imported recipes are only visible to the user who imported them - similar to if a user had printed the recipe or copied it into a doc. We’re putting great care into make sure Recipeasly can’t be used to take away from the great work bloggers & creators do

I’m also grateful for the strong feedback. There’s a lot for us to learn, and I appreciate learning from the conversations in this thread.

I'd like to clarify that we do not make any money off of this. There is *no* revenue, much less profit. (Also, to drive blog traffic all recipe links on the homepage go out to the original recipe.)

I'm sorry, we hear you. Given the feedback, we are taking http://recipeasly.com down as we re-examine our impact on the community. Our goal is to amplify the voices & content of creators, not diminish them. And if we come back, it'll be with changes where we have fallen short

Curious how you see this impacting the bloggers who create the content and rely on the ad revenue?

Our endgame is very much to create a new model for content creators to monetize recipes outside of the trappings of ads and SEO. That’s actually our vision for this. Think Substack for Recipes - we just need get our foot in the door & believe beginning with end users is the way

As a food blogger, I don’t know how to feel about this. First impression is ew, that’s not nice. Tell me more. What about bloggers making a living from their stories and blogs?
