How tough is it to market an extension? I’m thinking about building one as an extra feature for my app or service, but I’ve been holding back because I think it might be hard to get it in front of my target audience
If it’s an extension-website pairing it may be harder to market in general because it’s a complex architecture for users (need to do 2 things)
But stand-alone extensions are pretty easy to market.
For example my most popular extension had about 700_000 users with minimal marketing, I have another extension with 10_000 users with no marketing, another with 5000 users and no marketing, another with 1000 users (and it’s a pretty crappy one, my first) and no marketing
I’ve only been a web dev for 2 years, and building extensions for about 1.5 years
