Community in a nutshell: Getting more 5 star reviews in less time.
Session Description
Ever considered releasing a plugin on the WordPress.org repository? Ever wondered if there was a secret to getting highly engaged users and reviews? In this developer-focused talk we are going to pump the brakes on code-heavy content and instead hone in on how we as developers can get better reviews, better users, and even more (and recurring!) revenue from free plugins, using a few handy techniques.
I’ll share how my two free niche plugins have generated more than $5,000 in revenue this year, and how yours can too!
