In this powerful interview, Gordan Orlic discusses the good, the bad, and the awful parts of being a elite CodeCanyon plugin author. You not going to want to miss this interview. Gordan uses some passionate language, so be aware, this episode is not child-friendly!

 

In our interview with Gordan, he talks about how he first got into web development, how he found WordPress, and how he became a plugin author. From there, he talks about the pros and cons of selling plugins on a large marketplace like Envato.

Gordan talks candidly about why he’s leaving the Envato marketplace after finding so much success there, and what his plans are for the future. Gordan also shares the one thing that confuses customers about purchasing Envato items.

Gordan’s interview isn’t all about bashing Envato. He actually puts them over quite strong, and mentions many advantages of starting on a marketplace like CodeCanyon or ThemeForest. He also points out some things you should know before starting a development shop on a code marketplace, and what he would do differently today.

The interview kept rolling after the record button for the podcast stopped. The bonus content was just as informative.

This was one of our most memorable WordPress interviews to date, and one you won’t want to miss.
