   Your extension is just the start

   Your extension is ready. Now it needs a home. You want to see who installs it and understand why people leave. It helps to have all of that in one place.

   Start with your listing

   This is Ext Ops Panel, a control panel for your extensions. Before you publish, you can draft your Chrome Web Store listing and check its description. The panel points to the exact lines worth fixing.

   Pages for your extension

   The panel also hosts pages for your extension. Here is the home page, the welcome page after install, and the uninstall page. There is a privacy policy too. You do not need to build a separate website.

   Give people a reason to return

   When someone removes your extension, they see this feedback form. You can tailor it. If they choose “Something is broken,” you can show a possible fix and a reinstall button right here. We use this ourselves, and dozens of users have already come back.

   See your users and the market

   You can track installs and uninstalls. You can also explore where your users are: the map marks the countries they come from. It helps you understand your audience, and it is fun to look at. Before your next idea, find similar extensions and see how they are doing.
