An answer to many problems

Swipe Pages is the answer to several problems I have been having. I have a number of sites that will never need to be more than a single page. I tried building static pages for each, then WordPress installs for each, then finally settled on a WP "networked" site to host them all. Each solution came with its own problems.

I've now migrated those sites over to Swipe Pages and while I can edit them easily any time I want with the page builder, I can also not touch them again and not have to worry about keeping WP up to date.

Things I LOVE:

1. The page builder. It handles 90% of the things I need to do. For the other 10% I can always use the HTML block or a custom embed.
2. The hosting is super fast and Better Uptime (thanks AppSumo!) shows its stable and very consistently fast.
3. The whole thing is easy to use.
4. Landing pages have always been a love/hate thing for me. It was easy to settle into a routine, using the same template. Now my pages are much, much more eye catching.
5. A/B testing built right in. Clone your page, make your changes, then see which one performs better. I struggled with even attempting this in WP.

I would really like to see a couple of things:

1. Some error handling. When I create a custom domain, I should be able to address the 404 case. Right now it displays a blank page with "Cannot GET /<page requested>". Not ideal. Maybe the option of a custom page or allow me to redirect 404s to a specific URL.
2. Better handling of the "naked domain" case. The current workaround has me up and running, but it tacks the "www" on the beginning of the domain. Acceptable, but not ideal.
