A sales milestone and giving back

AffiliateWP launched just a short four months ago and already we have seen a truly tremendous response from customers and the entire WordPress community. Today we have reached a significant milestone in the life of AffiliateWP and are highly anticipating when we will get to celebrate the next milestone. In celebration of the milestone, we would like to go through a few of the achievements AffiliateWP has been blessed with over the last four months. 

Since version 1.0 was released on April 8, 2014, we have pushed out 15 small to large updates that introduced new features and bugs fixes for minor issues. The latest release was version 1.2, which SellWithWP posted a nice review of recently.

Thanks to our open source philosophy, we have been blessed with over 21 contributors to the AffiliateWP code base. These individuals have helped build new features, improve existing features, and fix bugs. Each of these individuals deserves endless praise and thanks for their efforts.

AffiliateWP is now available in 14 distinct languages, thanks to the efforts of numerous translators. If you would like to help expand our translations, there are details here. You could even get a free license!

We have released three official addons for Developer license holders, and three free addons available to everyone. Three additional addons have been released by 3rd-party developers.

Today we’re super excited to announce that we have reached 500 sales of AffiliateWP.

500 was a number we decided to set as our first major milestone during our recent trip to New York. It gave us an internal goal to reach and served as motivation for continuing to build a better and better product.

In celebration of reaching this milestone, we have chosen to fully refund the customer who was responsible for pushing us to 500 and have also upgraded their license to the Developer level, giving them unlimited access to all official addons for the next year. We owe a huge “thank you” to this individual and to all of our customers that have helped make it possible for us to build, and continue to build, an affiliate marketing plugin that not only does its job, but is one that we personally love to use.

Thank you to everyone!
