You might want to put a cap on the $2.99/m plan, otherwise one huge site could wipe you out. If you do, I'd express that in terms that most small Wordpress sites will understand (like unique viewers, page hits, etc).
I think some here will say "why not just use Cloudflare directly", but I disagree, I think this plugin makes sense. Cloudflare is relatively straightforward for technical users, but many Wordpress users are non-technical. $2.99 is a very small amount for reliable fast images, while also packing a pretty nice margin for you for most users who will need a tiny fraction of that.
- donohoe 11mo agoYeah, raise your base price too imho. At least $5
- cr1st1an 11mo agoWill do, had to make it interesting for launch :)
- cr1st1an 11mo agoYes, this plugin is aimed at the long tail and I need to be clear on a fair use policy. The idea behind the self host worker is that I can provide white glove migration if any site becomes burdensome without disrupting the service altogether. And I agree, if a site is behind Cloudflare DNS this plugin does not make much sense, but it's a solution for many non-technical users, as you mentioned.
- Tepix 11mo agoDo the long tail websites really have a problem with cost for their delivery? I don't think so. I'm sorry to say that with this plugin, you're just adding to the pervasive tracking enabled by widespread use of Cloudflare.
- cr1st1an 11mo agoDo they? I honestly do not know yet. That is what I am trying to learn.
