Would cool to have some kind of free trial. Even if it did something like:

  6 vulnerabilities found

  Wordpress Core vX.x:
   1. CVS0001 - click here to resolve
   2. CVS0002 - click here to resolve
   3. CVS0003 - sign up to resolve

  Wordpress Plugins:
  - W3 Cache vX.x
    1. CVS0004 - click here to resolve

  - Jetpack vX.x
    1. CVS0005 - click here to resolve
    2. CVS0006 - sign up to resolve
 
  - ...
You get two Wordpress core fixes and two plugin fixes for free. The rest you have to pay for.

It would be a good on-boarding process. It get to see that there are indeed vulnerabilities, and I get a few solutions provided for free, but to resolve the rest I need to sign up.

As someone with a single WordPress personal site the starter level is too expensive. Have you considered a per resolution fee? I.e. You find five vulnerabilities with my site. I pay $X.XX per fix?

Hi, thanks for the feedback. I've asked for credit card details to prevent the abuse of this service since you can scan any website.

However, I'm currently in the process of working with the Google Analytics API to provide free scans for verified websites where the user can prove ownership -- this should roll out in about a week or so. Would you like me to drop you a PM when I release this feature?

Yes please, I'm @junto on Twitter.
