Louthy in this thread is making a good case for the kind of user that you can afford to lose. If $5 per user does not cause some of your users to go away then you're too cheap. Scale it up an order of magnitude, or even two, watch your competition like a hawk and make sure that you make you users happy, never mind about them resenting to pay. The way to offset that is not to lower your price but to give more for the same price.
best of luck, I feel that "We made $1,000 in recurring revenue" is so much more constructive than 'Show HN'.
