Anyone can create a Craigslist clone, but somehow they still make 100s of millions of dollars per year.

Yep, this is what people are not understanding. Too many engineers and not enough business owners on HN. The hardest part of starting a business is getting the network effects on your side, it isn't the tech.

Is this open source? Any link to a repo?

Did you have to do much support?

single_source · 5 years ago

I get an occasional request for new features maybe once a month. If I can add them in a few minutes I do, otherwise I tell them it isn't supported and won't be. So basically, no.

$100 total? Doesn’t sound like a lot unless you worked on it for a day.

single_source · 5 years ago

Sorry, no monthly.

I appreciate that he had sympathy, but I think max he can do is refund $25. I think that that amount is the least of concern to the most developers.

single_source · 5 years ago

yeah, I've made my money back so I'm not as concerned about the $25, but there goes any chance of growing the revenue in any meaningful way.

I am getting a kick out of all the people here saying that "no one pays for extensions". I've consistently made $50-100 from mine with no marketing whatsoever.

Just my luck...

I created my extension and started monetizing it March of this year...
