Welcome to the 9th transparency report! In this series, we will discuss everything that happens in codeinwp from a business perspective. I try to focus on interesting things and things that play an important role in our business growth. This means the current progress, success or failure, master plan and so on. (here are all the previous reports.) This issue describes what happened on coudenwp in october2015. Who knows that stoke photos are still something… So as I mentioned in my previous report, I started my own \

Male (for this wonderful result, credit will return Cristian who is directly responsible for the project.) In my personal opinion, such a moment makes my career as CEO excellent! If you can authorize people to do things they like (such as photos) and see the results of the work concerned, this is the biggest reward I can ask for. Does \
… one of the interesting ways is to invite users to view the welcome page. We decided to test it and introduce it into zerif Lite. Including: What is the big idea here? This allows you to better express the main functions of the topic. There are frequently asked questions (very important!). Several suggested plug-ins and sub topics are listed here (currently there are 5-6). Display the change log (important for developer users). Provide a quick \
Essentially, we must create such a page and include it in the topic. With the expansion of functions and the addition of new extensions (plug-ins and sub themes), we no longer expect all users to use themes immediately without problems. There is a good reason to think that the welcome page is a good habit. First of all, I invite you to create my situation and share my opinions. By default, the welcome page is excellent at achieving certain goals. a) It will not disturb users while gradually guiding users to customize. For example, see the action required tab
Please be careful. The
The plug-in is recommended and integrated with the theme, but it is not required to be installed. All users can read and decide what a plug-in is. At the same time, with these tabs, you can add some gravity to the whole and point out that this work is actually important. (in our case, the default query form will be removed from the future version of the topic, so the recommended pilot forms need to be installed.) b) This page is very convenient for anyone who wants to customize the site as a sub theme. The following are the subtopics tab: The
Easy to use. Just click get now. c) This is also a good opportunity to invite people to participate in the development process (contribution tab). By the way, check out zerif Lite on GitHub. d) The welcome page is an additional marketing tool in your arsenal. Again, this is a benefit. You can choose whether the user wants it or not without interference. The following are the main promotion tabs \
As a reminder, this is just a public topic on our website, WordPress. Org refuses to place it in the official repository. You can read all our reasons from the previous report. We have received some great feedback from the community, but we feel that we can do more as the theme and further expand the function. So. We introduced an additional feature called parallelax one plus. You can see from the name that it is not a theme, but a plug-in integrated with the current parallelax one installation of the user. In this way, everyone can keep their own theme settings and get other projects undisturbed. The
By default, this additional feature is an \
When 1870 visitors visit the page, the conversion rate is about 1.6%-2.1%. Of the 1870 visitors, 806 came from press releases, and the rest were a combination of other traffic sources (direct, Google, recommended). Ultimately, this is a good start, but the time it takes to develop these additional features will take some time to bear fruit. In another note, e-mail lists are still one of the best assets a web-based business can have. Mistakes. Well, we found a serious problem in the whole release. Most users who buy addon seem to try to install it like a theme. Because it is a plug-in, it is not very good. The
We didn’t fully define the proposal and didn’t point out how to install things correctly. It was just our fault. Therefore, this is a lesson for the future. Knowing what your product is does not mean that your customers are the same. The value of the small gap plug-in distribution is very good, which I did not expect. But let’s start from scratch. Additional features of the visualizer plug-in a few weeks ago:
We have introduced another professional plug-in. Compared with the free plug-in, the additional function provides three new functions: data import, inline data editor and support. There are three different licenses for individuals, businesses, and developers ($75, $150, $299). As a result, this plug-in sells well in such a niche market. So far, we have created: Of course, it’s not a large amount, but let’s imagine the possibility. I mean: If you are running a small development company and have only a few plug-ins, you do not need to start the version of the plug-in. It can still bring good sales. That number will be added. For example, if there were five such plug-ins, it would be about $4600. Class. Participate in small projects even if you do not have a large customer base. Is the small gap \wordpress plug-in a way to make money on \wordpress? If you want to tweet, click happy! The team’s new comer codeinwp team is growing, and I am very happy. Just last month, we hired gourav to work full-time on support. So far, he has responded to more than 1200 requests for support. We also welcome Andrei, who has just joined the design team. The following is his rotation of zerif (we can implement it in the future): male male male male male male male male male male our query form plug-in pickup speed + it is suggested that the latest contact form plug-in rate forms runs well in the repository. About 1500 are ed every day, and the total number of can reach 50000. Now it is a proposal. Actively seek partnership! You are the theme developer… The pierce forms plug-in can be a good add-on to your product Know yourself, consider the suggestions in the dashboard or in the document Or do you know other people who can benefit from it? Income details (October 1 – November 1) the following is the October data brought by the company’s internal tracking system set by us. Male: increased by 8.9% compared with the previous month. The list of best sellers is as follows: Continue to run the segmentation test mentioned last month (one line of CSS needs $30000), so there are still some sales of treasure test. Next month, you can cancel the single theme license completely and focus only on selling club membership and plug-ins. What are the future plans? I know that you have promised a complete report on the performance and future plans of parallax one. I’m sorry I haven’t been there yet. But there are so many new things going on every month that we can’t just miss them. It’s on its way! As always, thank you for reading and supporting codeinwp!
