interview: gareth developer of wisdom plugin

I can still remember the I loaded it in local install and began to play around with Kubrick theme.   I'm not sure I ever used the word 'discontent, except for certain I think there's disconnection for plugin developers once their product goes out into the wild, particularly if you are distributing via platform like WordPress org directory.   By the user as part of the experience for someone else, I think one of the I have been most aware of is that I'm writing plugin that's going to be incorporated into another plugin. So, I'm very conscious that what I do is going to be perceived's plugin.   I've also been able to use the data to troubleshoot support calls and the end-user is not technical..   Perhaps one of the biggest advantages of Wisdom is that the data it returns also includes the email addresses, collected by permission, of the people using your plugins.   The big difference between Freemius and my product is that Freemius is SaaS and mine is not it's just WordPress plugin that you add to your site.   I prefer that to having to go off to another site with another log-in and view the data there and, that's choice, and I can see that other people might prefer to work with SaaS..   I use the typical methods for bringing in customers, including the freemium model where I have free versions of plugins on WordPress org with pro versions available.   I'm pleased amazed that I've managed to earn living for the 5 or 6 years purely from my efforts and not having to rely on receiving cheque from someone else.   UK does not have enough sunshine for me, and I think it would be great experience, especially for my kids, to spend in different parts of the world.   Read more
