Ask HN: Would you pay for a browser plugin?
3 comments
I think the best way to do that would be to offer a free plugin with added benefits once you pay for it (like buffer). I look at is similarly to buying an app on a phone, it would largely depend on how useful it would be, how much I would use it, and if I could justify paying money for it.
I have a plug in to remove the ads on the Pandora page, and to show a pop up with song name and artist regardless of what webpage I'm focusing on. I wouldn't pay for that plugin, but a strong ad blocking one could be worth the money.
Do you have something in mind?

Personally I would never pay for a browser plugin. I don't really need those services to do anything more than they already do. Granted I'm sure there are tons of people that want more, but I personally am not one of them.
Yes, I pay for the Pro version of ActiveInbox http://www.activeinboxhq.com/
Tools like buffer have built great businesses around browser plugins, I'm interested in the conversion rate of these businesses as opposed to a standalone service.
