I'm selling my WordPress plugin 'YASR - Yet Another Stars Rating'. It is well-known in the WordPress world and has a decent reputation among developers and site
The seller acquired a WordPress plugin in 2022 with the intention of expanding its features but is now selling due to needing to focus on their primary business in custom web development. The plugin holds the top spot for a key keyword and boasts over 20,000 active installations. Its reputation is established, and it offers a high average order value with steady active subscriptions. Despite its success, the plugin's dashboard is outdated, documentation is lacking, and there are complaints about compatibility and missing integrations. Opportunities for growth include enhancing the dashboard design, increasing prices, adding documentation, and integrating features like Elementor and ACF. The seller highlights threats such as competition and potential changes in Google's indexing, which could impact buyer interest. The ideal buyer should have PHP and WordPress development experience and potentially leverage the domain's authority for SEO.
The seller estimates spending about 10 minutes weekly on the plugin, handling minimal support requests. They offer post-sale support for up to six weeks. The sale includes the website, domain, Google Analytics, email list, and other assets, with a transition process detailed for account and domain transfers. The seller emphasizes that assets will be transferred through Escrow, with the buyer taking ownership of multiple online platforms. The seller encourages serious, experienced buyers and acknowledges challenges in responding promptly due to business commitments, ensuring support post-sale for any inquiries.
