mi piace il modo con cui crei i video con le animazioni… che programma usi?
codecanyon's cut on your revenue is astonishing. I'm considering freemius now.
Your points about Codecanyon commission rates were revealing.
We should use Codecanyon to find plugin ideas. We can then create a free version to offer it on WordPress.org (optionally using Freemius).
Thanks for the video.
here is some bs from the owner "It’s a big part of the reason we’ve set up Envato to be a values-driven organisation; they are front and centre in recruitment and onboarding, and have helped drive an extremely positive company culture that is very much in line with how we wish to do business."
the only one getting paid without risk is codecanyon
Oh man great video and extremely pertinent details…. they pay once and you update forever your work hours to earning goes down per sales ..unless you are super poplar of course….unreal
It was one of the worst experience i ever had in buying from internet , when i superscribe in your mobilook plugin.☹☹☹☹☹
I've been selling WP themes on ThemeForest for 7 years of now. And I can agree that Envato marketplace is a horrible place to start your business. It was ok before 2013 though, many authors left since. They introduced the new subscription platform called Elements and spam banners on all pages promoting it, which drives all the traffic away and pays authors cents from each download, if you're an author on Elements. To get more sales nowadays you require to run ads outside of the marketplace, which is pointless, since users will click the Elements banners and leave the marketplace. As a result you help them to promote their subscription platform with your money and don't receive anything in return. This was the main reason that we started to build our own theme shop outside of Envato with the help of Freemius.
