Temptations of an open-source browser extension developer · extesy hoverzoom · Discussion #670

90 min read Original article ↗

Over the years, I have received many proposals to monetize this extension so I think I'll just start posting them here for fun (but not for profit). The main reason I continue to maintain this extension is because I can hardly trust others to not fall for one of these offers. I'm fortunate to have a job that pays well enough to allow me to keep my moral compass and ignore all of these propositions. I realize that not everyone has the same financial security so hopefully this thread would shed some light on what kind of pressure is put on extension developers.

Hope this message finds you well.

My name is redacted and I’m a Strategic Partnerships Manager at redacted - monetization platform for browser extensions.

I am contacting you since I came across the extension 'Hover Zoom+' at Chrome Store; I consider your product can help you bring profit by means of collaborating together.

I would like to suggest a potential partnership between our companies that will significantly increase your revenues.

Are you interested in discussing our offer in more details?

Hope for positive feedback and ongoing cooperation.

Please forgive my persistence, I’m following up to an email I sent to you last week in regards to your Chrome browser extension. I am still interested in speaking with you about monetizing your anonymous user data.

There are a couple things I want to insure you know.

Monetizing anonymous user data is happening on almost every website we visit - you may be leaving alot of money on the table by not monetizing your anonymous user data. Try dowloading Ghostry to see for yourself.
Affiliate commissions may pay you as much as 20% but is not always scaleable.
Chrome will deactive extenions that violate their ‘single purpose’ policy by working with ad injection companies - redacted does not, will not inject ads, but uses anonymous user data to provide more relevant advertising through NAI and IAB approved ad delivery networks.
Top advertisers across all verticals are very interested in targeting high quality intent data derived from browser extensions.

Again, if your data is strong, it has the potential to produce a significant new revenue stream for you and your business. Here is a link to our self-serve Developer Dashboard: redacted

I’d be happy to provide additional information should you have any questions.

My name is redacted, I’m a co-founder and CEO of redacted – a Market intelligence service for ecommerce. (like similarweb, only for ecommerce).

We are revolutionizing the way ecommerce data is being generated and consumed

We are building a user panel of several of millions of users worldwide and are looking for top quality partners with substantial user base to enhance our panel.

We are working in a very similar manner to redacted, providing you with an easy to integrate SDK to collect anonymous data.

If you are already working with redacted’s SDK the integration should take no more than a couple of minutes.
There is no collision with any other monetization tool you might be working with today.
Our SDK holds no monetization or any other form of user interaction and it does not interfere with the user experience.

It is also important to state that we collect no personal data and only store information relevant for online shopping trends.

We can help you monetize your extension in a simple and non-intrusive manner.

I would like to discuss potential integration with you and see how we can work together.

Will you be available today/tomorrow for a short call to explain things?

05/11/2016

I’m sure you get business proposals all the time, so I’ll get straight to the point. I hope what I’m proposing is a little different and might actually interest you. I like Hover Zoom+ as a great alternative to it’s bigger brother Hover Zoom that lost its glamour over the last couple of months.

We're conducting a DNS error research and we’re interested in small amounts of anonymous data that you might be able to provide via your Chrome extension. Our research has been going on for years and Google has never had the slightest problem with it.

  • Compatible with Google’s strict policies
  • No personal user data
  • No ads, no malware

The data we’re interested in are basically just DNS errors:

  1. NXD – Non Existent Domain - the domain that a user entered that resulted in a DNS error.
  2. A time stamp – when it happened.
  3. GEO – where it happened (USA, UK, RU etc.).
  4. A unique randomly generated user ID (can be hashed, not traceable back to the user). Please, don’t confuse this with the user IP address.

And that’s all. You can either use our script or collect the data on your own and send it to us via an FTP server, API etc. There’s a lot of different ways we can do this. We pay on a monthly basis. The payments depend on user GEOs, but it would be in thousands of dollars per year.

Is this worth at least a brief discussion? Looking forward to hearing from you.

A while back I reached out to you regarding a DNS error research our company conducts. Hover Zoom+ would be an ideal medium for our research. In return, this could become a solid new revenue stream for you.

Our method has been going on for years and we’ve never had the slightest problem with Google. We pay regularly on a monthly basis. For you it would be in tens of thousands of dollars per year - the amount depends on your users base and data quality.

If you’re concerned about including third party scripts, there’s still a lot of ways we can make this work.

Please let me know if this is worth a brief discussion to you.

05/26/2016

Hello! My name is redacted and I work with users traffic monetization, as well as browser extensions.
I looked up your extension, and I would like to invite you to work with our company. I analyzed that the expansion of "Hover Zoom+" can give you a guaranteed high profit without affecting the user UX. We offer more than 10 types of monetization, and our system optimizes traffic from all over the world.

I'm redacted, regional manager of redacted advertisement network.

redacted is PopUnder ad network operating since 2015. We are currently offering your extension/plugin a private deal with advanced payments for CPM / impressions, and we are ready to discuss the prices so that our offer could be more profitable for you.

PopUnder is different from PopUp and other types of online ads. PopUnder opens in a new tab/window in one click. The ad appears as a separate tab or window behind the main browser window (that is why it’s called PopUnder) and doesn’t have a negative impact on the user’s perception of the website and user experience. PopUnder doesn’t distract the user from your website. All technical settings (number of clicks, time etc) are open to discussion.

Just to see how PopUnder operates you can try our demo: redacted.

Advertisements correspond with your target audience so that you monetize your site to the fullest extent. You will decide how often PopUnder ads will appear. The ads can be moderated and you can disable or remove any kind of advertisement you dislike.

Our ads are currently running on: redacted

Our platform comprises 3000+ advertisers.

The main ad categories are e-commerce (online shopping), software, gaming.

Please download our presentation: redacted

I am always ready to answer any questions and receive other feedback on our cooperation via email redacted or Skype –redacted.

5/16/2017

I use Hover Zoom+ and found your info via GitHub. My firm, redacted, was founded by former Microsoft engineers and is a leading venture backed competitive intelligence service that provides insights to clients such as Proctor and Gamble, TurboTax and Geico. We're not an ad network, ad exchange, malware etc. In short, we're nerds who love to surf and happen to write awesome software 😎

We're interested in exploring partnership opportunities with select Chrome extension developers and were really impressed by the positive ratings (810!) you received from your users. Our partners have gained access to a new and simple revenue stream without interfering with your user experience or gathering PII. We consider partners and their users to be long term strategic relationships. In some instances, we've also acquired extensions where it made sense for both sides.

I'd love to have an informal chat and learn more about your work on Hover Zoom+. Do you have a few minutes late Wednesday or Thursday PDT?

Just a friendly follow-up. My CEO is quite keen to speak to you - do you have a few minutes to connect Thursday or Friday?

Would consider selling? If so let me know a price range you feel is fair.

Just bumping this.

My name is redacted and I am working for a german company that buys chrome extensions. That’s the reason why I am contacting you.

I would like to make you an offer for your "Hover Zoom+" extension. If you are interested in selling just let me know and then we can talk about everything in detail.

Maybe my price range could be interesting for you.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Sorry to bother you again but I was wondering if you might be interested in selling your extension?

Would you may be interested in a cooperation?

4/30/2018

I am contacting you regarding your browser extension (I love the simplicity of it :) ). I think there is an opportunity for a cooperation between us.

I’ve developed redacted – an extension that lets users support highly effective, research-backed charities while shopping online (with no extra costs). It’s somewhat similar to Amazon Smile program. It works with 1000+ shops including eBay, Microsoft, Etsy, Barnes&Noble, Aliexpress. For every $4.85 raised for Against Malaria Foundation two people are protected from malaria (via bed nets) and for every $1.19 raised for Schistosomiasis Control Initiative one child gets a year supply of medicine.

Would you be interested in placing a recommendation for redacted after user installs your extension? I could pay $1 per new user that comes from your page.

That way you can unintrusively monetize your software and help raise money for great causes at the same time.

Let me know what you think.

5/9/2018

Hope you are doing great.

Short story.
I'm tired of offline business, and exploring new ways of money making on internet.

Today I stop my views at the browser extension as the most profitable and undiscovered niches, unfortunately it requires product with audience to start.

I'm not a developer but have an extremely wish to check what it is. Basically I found already team who provides monetization solution for ext, and now I'm looking to buy one.

I thought perhaps you got mind to sell yours. Let me know what you think.

9/17/2018

We cooperate with the owners of extensions, by integrating into
extensions, thus helping in monetization. For example, we are working with: redacted

and some other affiliates.

Our integration collects data from the sites we need and does not
interfere with the user's work, does not upload anything onto their
computer or any other usability.

Would you be interested in discussing this with us?

11/6/2018

Good day
We offer easy monetization of your extension (chrome / opera). Give feedback if you’re interested.

11/22/2018

Hello! We'd like to suggest you additional extension monetization by adding a search field in your extension:

  • A function will be added to your extension that replaces the browser search bar and redirects requests to our search engine.

  • You'll get 70% of the revenue from all search queries made by users of your app.

  • Income depends on the number of searches made. Approximate numbers are as follows:
    US - 1000 requests - $60
    UK - $58 and so on.
    An extension with 10,000 active users can earn an extra $500+ per month.

  • The WHOLE WORLD (WW) is monetized.

Benefits of our offer:

  • Search queries will go to Google search results, so nothing will change for the user! The only difference is that we, as partners, will be able to profit from searches / clicks on ads and share this profit with you.

  • Very easy integration, no need to embed any 3rd party SDK - you are in complete control of your application, all we have to do is search!

  • Net45 payouts to any payment system

  • 100% legal and secure for the end user.

Looking forward to your reply!

After adding our library to your extension, the search results in the supported search engines will contain affiliate links labeled as “Sponsored”. You will be rewarded each time when users follow the link and make a purchase on the partner’s store website.

How can we discuss our possible cooperation?

Hi there,
I'm redacted, CEO at redacted. Just dropping in to say hi and share something exciting!

Hover Zoom+ caught my eye. It's not every day we see something as cool as what you've built, with its impressive 416242 users. At redacted, we’re all about creating awesome web products that serve our customers, and we've got over 5 million users across our portfolio loving what we do.

So, here's a thought - why not join forces- through an acquisition (preferably) or a partnership? We've successfully acquired and partnered with other extensions, and the journey’s been nothing short of amazing. Would love to share more if you are interested.

Let’s have a quick chat? Nothing formal, just a virtual hangout to explore ideas. We're known for our swift and easy-going processes (we wrap things up in less than 2 weeks!). Think of it as a conversation between tech enthusiasts (which we totally are!).

Excited to hear your story and see where this could go. Just reply to this email and we’ll set something up.

Looking forward to possibly working together and making Hover Zoom+ soar even higher!

12/17/2023

I am looking to buy some more extensions with a large number of users, from 5000+ users
Even if your extension has a million users, I will buy it, if you intend to sell.
So if you own an extension and don't know how to make money from it, you can sell it to me.
After agreeing on the price we can trade through escrow, an online trading intermediary, based in the United States.
Google allows ownership of extensions to be transferred from one account to another, so the google account will still be yours.

Dear Google Chrome extension owner,

I am currently in the market to expand my portfolio by acquiring browser extensions that have garnered a significant user base, ideally exceeding 5,000 active users. Regardless of scale, even if your extension has reached the impressive milestone of a million users, I am keenly interested in discussing a potential purchase should you be considering selling.

For extension developers who might be exploring ways to monetize their creations but are unsure of the process, this presents an excellent opportunity to realize immediate financial benefits. I propose a secure and transparent transaction process through a reputable escrow service based in the United States, ensuring both parties' interests are safeguarded throughout the transaction.

It's worth noting that Google's policies facilitate the seamless transfer of extension ownership between accounts, which means you'll retain control of your original Google account post-transfer.

If you're intrigued by this opportunity and own an extension that meets these criteria, I'd be delighted to engage in a conversation to explore the potential for collaboration further.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Hey there - I’ve been tracking the Chrome Extension Store closely, and I noticed that Hover Zoom+ is still on Manifest V2. Here’s the thing: Google’s sunsetting V2 real soon, which means your extension’s future? Hanging by a thread.

But I’m not here to stress you out—I’m here to offer a way forward. My team specialises in either acquiring extensions like yours outright or injecting some funding to help founders like you transition to Manifest V3 without the headache. You choose your adventure.

If you’re ready to talk, we can make sure your extension doesn’t just survive but thrive in this new ecosystem.

Would it be crazy to suggest a quick call?

Hey there - wanted to follow up on my last message because this is serious. Your Chrome extension has already lost its “Featured badge,” and next up? Your users will be pushed toward Manifest V3 alternatives.

We’ve got two options:

  1. We buy your extension and make sure it stays relevant.
  2. We fund your transition to V3 so you can keep growing without the overhead.

Either way, sitting still isn’t going to work—Google’s not waiting, and neither are your users.

Would it be helpful to send more info?

Hey there - this is the last time I’ll reach out, but I wouldn’t want you to lose your extension over a simple update. Since you’re still on Manifest V2, your users are going to be pushed toward V3 alternatives very soon—if they haven’t already.

Here’s what I propose:

  • We buy your extension and give it new life, or
  • We fund your upgrade to Manifest V3, so you can hit the ground running again.

Either way, the clock is ticking, and doing nothing means losing users fast. If this matters to you, I’d love to chat.

Hello!
I found your Chrome extension on the Chrome Web Store and after careful review, I must say I appreciate the effort you put into developing an extension that actually works. Kudos for that!

However, as someone whose team has promoted over 1000+ extensions and gotten good results, and knows exactly what works
I noticed a few things that need improving. Your tool on the Chrome Web Store has less than 1000 reviews, where we know reviews are not all that matters, but they still do matter. I thought of a way we could increase the numbers organically.

Your page, however, does look alright, but on search engines, it doesn't appear at all, even with the right keywords.
NOW THIS IS HOW WE HELP YOUR EXTENSION GROW AND SAVE YOU MONEY:
We can help with that. It's no big deal; it's just basic SEO tactics. And I can get your extension more users and reviews using
Email Marketing: Reach targeted users and drive installs
Review Campaigns: Encourage satisfied users to leave positive reviews

As a team focused on producing results, I can assure you we would get 100k+ new users
2000+ positive reviews
I hope to see more exciting feature upgrades on your tool and an increased user base. I would appreciate a chance to discuss my suggestions.

Hi,

I wanted to give you appreciation for your work on Hover Zoom+. It turned out a very good, simple extension.

I run a few rather popular extensions like redacted, redacted, and a few other -- around 2 million users in total.

I'm looking to expand my product portfolio and I think Hover Zoom+ would make a good fit.

Is there a slightest chance you'd consider selling your extension to me for a fair price?

Cheers,
redacted

Hey

I just stumbled across your Chrome extension & was wondering - do you have any plans to sell the extension?
I can offer you a fair value for the extension if you're interested.
The transfer will be safe & easy, as we can use an escrow service (I'll cover the fees).
What according to you would be a fair price for the extension?
Simply hit "reply" with the amount (& currency), and I'll let you know if it works for me.

Either way,
Have a great day!

Hello,

Your extension Hover Zoom+ is well-positioned to start generating
steady, recurring revenue — simply by turning existing user browsing
behavior into a new, compliant income stream.

At redacted, we:

  • Work only with 100% anonymous data — no names, emails, or personal
    identifiers.

  • Stay fully compliant with Chrome Web Store, GDPR, and CCPA —
    including Privacy Policy updates, User Consent, and Opt-out support.

  • Ensure zero impact on user experience — your extension keeps running
    exactly as it does today, without affecting other monetizations.

  • No development work — if you already have access to data fields like
    URLs, referrers, countries, or timestamps, we connect directly. Our
    exclusive client network is ready, and your revenue is waiting.

  • Not collecting those fields yet? No problem — we provide a
    lightweight, script-based solution that runs silently in the
    background using the permissions you already have.

Sounds interesting? Let’s explore how quickly this could work for you.

Looking forward to your reply,

Best regards,
