<p>I was working on a plugin that had a pro (paid) version. This plugin had 2 code bases and was hosted on an external site. This site charged upwards of 50% of what I was charging.</p>
<p>So I became interested in finding a way to provide updates and use only one code base. I also wanted to minimize the cost to sell the plugin so that the money was not going into someone elses pocket. With Sell My Plugin, you host your own plugins. You use PayPal to charge for the purchases. There is a transactions list so that you can keep track of your sales. If you sell 10 copies of your plugin in a month at <strong>$10/ea</strong>, this plugin will save you <strong>$360</strong> per year vs PlugPress and <strong>$600</strong> vs CodeCanyon.</p>
<p>This plugin also uses the familiar domain.com/extend/plugins/ layout just like wordpress.</p>
<h4>Free Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Your.Domain.com/extend/plugins/ to list all of your plugins just like wordpress.</li>

<h3>Requirements</h3>
<p>There are a few things that you need to do to make sure that you can use this plugin.</p>
<h4>PHP 5 >= 5.2.0, PECL zip >= 1.5.0</h4>
<p>This plugin makes use of the ZipArchive class, introduced in PHP 5.2.0.  You must be running at least this version to use the plugin.</p>
<h4>Valid readme.txt and plugin headers</h4>
<p>Like plugins hosted on wordpress.org, you must include a valid readme.txt file and the proper plugin headers in your main plugin file.  Check out a <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/about/readme.txt" rel="ugc">sample readme.txt file</a> and use the <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/about/validator/" rel="ugc">readme validator</a>.  The Sell My Plugin plugin uses the readme.txt file and the plugin headers to render information about the plugin.</p>
