Much lower impressions on CWS after launching freemium version?

My extension (a video downloader) was free to use and unlimited for the past year since launching. On May 5, I changed it to freemium by introducing a limit (a generous one) + paid plans to get unlimited downloads.

Then on May 7 onward, I noticed the installs dipping significantly. After investigating, I realized that the impressions across the CWS went down a lot. As you can see in the graph, for the past 6 months impressions were never below 1200 a day. Now for 10 days straight, they were.

Did anyone else experience such a dip in a similar context?

Does CWS penalize freemium extensions that include paid plans?

Focusing on core customers in times of crisis

In difficult economic times, and especially when there's a downturn, an essential business strategy is to focus on existing customers over trying to acquire new ones.

Focusing on customers who know you, trust you, and like you.

What are you doing in this regard when it comes to your business?

The importance of the "Featured" badge

I have 2 extensions that have the featured badge, and 1 that doesn't.

That 1 is growing much faster than the other 2 combined.

Conclusion: focus on building something that people want and like.

How to clean mold stains off of suede shoes without leaving marks?

I have a pair of suede shoes that had mold grow on them as I haven't used them for a few years. Tried to clean the mold off by brushing the shoes first then wiping with a mixture of vinegar and isopropyl, but it left behind stains as you can see in the picture.

How can I clean them properly and remove these stains?

Did anyone else experience such a dip in a similar context?

Is this related to my extension update? Does CWS penalize freemium extensions that include paid plans?

I've launched on NextGen Tools, currently ranking #21 out of #79

Hi guys, I've launched my Chrome extension (Wistia Video Downloader Plus) on NextGen Tools and it's currently ranking in #21 :)

I'm slightly happy coz I never thought it would make it past the bottom half.

It would be really cool if you guys can give it a few more upvotes hoping to reach the top 10! I'll return the favor when you launch your extension too!

PS: to upvote, just click on the link above and then upvote.

Thank you loads!

In other words, if I create a demo video of a product, then publishing a slightly different version of this demo every time so that I can end up with 20 different versions in my channel, is Youtube ok with that or does it penalize it?

Hi all, for the context, I created a Chrome extension that has 10k users. I want to leverage this userbase to ask them to refer the extension to people they know might need it.

What's the mechanism to do so? How can I make it easy for them to refer others? Considering the extension is free to use.

Certainly a key milestone for me!

This is a downloader I created for Wistia videos, as I was facing this issue myself. It was nearly impossible to download that type of videos.

I launched it in May of last year, and reached 10k users 11 months later!

How it happened: I recognized the gap and decided to do something about it. I'm not paying for ads or doing much marketing beside a few posts on Reddit and other platforms. Most of the traffic is organic, lots of people find me on Google and some via ChatGPT.

Ask me anything! Happy to answer your questions.
