Ask HN: Have you created paid wordpress plugins?
If so, please share the revenue details.Just curious to find out whether wordpress is still a hot platform with the advent of modern blogging platforms like medium. Also, please share how your revenue has changed in recent times after the popularity of medium and such stuffs.
- borplk 10y agoI'm also interested in this topic. Is there any room left in the Wordpress plugin space? It seems like pretty much any use case is fulfilled with a big-name plugin so I imagine you'd have to go extremely niche which would have a tiny audience.
- coreymaass 10y agoI launched my Kanban for WordPress plugin last fall (https://KanbanWP.com https://KanbanWP.com). I've made a few thousand dollars, with almost no marketing. As I'm relatively new, I can't speak to growth. But WordPress powers more than 25% of the top sites on the internet (https://w3techs.com/technologies/details/cm-wordpress/all/all https://w3techs.com/technologies/details/cm-wordpress/all/al...). It also goes way beyond publishing content, now being used as an app framework. So there's a chance that Medium might make a dent, but a small one.
