I have a relatively popular novelty extension and I get approached by ad companies to buy/monetize it regularly. I refuse, because I despise advertising and I don't need the money. But I suspect I am in the minority and that many extension owners probably just decide it is easier to sell it and not think about it.

I switched my chrome extension to a paid model (one off payments). Most the offers from these shady people, work out as approximately 1 year worth of sales.

  Who pays for extensions? Like, honest question.

    3-4 people a day. My extensions are development tools so I’d imagine people get their companies to pay for it.

  Anywhere from $2-25k. But most don't give a price upfront and I just send it to my spam folder.
