傲文世界

Wordpress应该是目前最流行的博客平台了。下载量超过8500万套，而其中插件也有7200套之多。但要从这么多的插件中找出高质量的插件也并非易事。好在现在开通了WP Plugins网站。今天（应该是11月12日）刚刚发布的这个网站平台就是专卖Wordpress插件的网上商店（这让人想起苹果的App Store，概念差不多）。

Wordpress插件开发商（者）可以将自己的插件上传到该网站进行销售，售价自定。目前有两种模式：用户一次性购买，并在购买后可在7天内下载，数量不限；用户也可以注册购买，并可享受之后的升级以及开发者的（技术）支持等等，当然前提是你要不断续费。注册购买在大多数情况下可能需要花费多一些。而WP Plugins网站则从销售中提成10%。

插件开发商需要在该网站上注册一个账号，并将自己的插件上到该网站。Incsub的Wordpress专家团队会检查上传的插件，一旦通过，即会上线销售。同时，Incsub还会跟进插件的情况，并检查插件是否有恶意内容存在。据称，Incsub是Wordpress方面的专家，他们已经开通并运行着诸如Edublogs,Wordpress Multi-User Dev和Blogs.mu这些网站了。来源

Incsub Launches WP Plugins; App Store For WordPress Plugins

by Daniel Brusilovsky on November 12, 2009

Wordpress is one of the web’s most popular blogging platforms, with over 8.5 million downloads and 7,200 plugins. But with all those plugins, finding the high quality ones can be a challenge. That’s where WP Plugins comes in. Launching today, WP Plugins hopes to be the App Store for WordPress plugins.

WordPress plugin developers can upload their premium plugins to WP Plugins and sell them to users. Developers have the choice to sell their plugins at whatever price they choose, and can two choose from two pricing models: they can offer their plugin as-is (buyers will have a 7 day window to download it) or they can offer it as a subscription, which includes upgrades and personal support from the plugin’s developer for as long as you continue the subscription. Of course, the subscription will cost more in most cases. WP Plugins then takes 10% of each plugin sale.

To participate, plugin developers have sign up for a developer account, and upload their plugin. Incsub’s team of WordPress experts will then look over plugin, and once it’s approved, it’ll get put on the store and up for sale. Incsub will monitor plugins and make sure there is no malicious content as well. WP Plugins has more information here.

Incsub has quite the experience with WordPress; they’ve run sites including Edublogs, WordPress Multi-User Dev and blog network hosts Blogs.mu.
