First Ever Marketplace Built Into WordPress Launches with WooThemes, Gravity Forms, Press75 and More

WP App Store powers seamless purchase and installation of top WordPress themes and plugins directly within the WordPress dashboard

Halifax, Nova Scotia (PRWEB) May 15, 2012

WP App Store, the integrated WordPress marketplace and delivery platform, launched today with major WordPress theme and plugin vendors as partners. WP App Store is the first ever marketplace to allow purchase and installation of major themes and plugins from within the WordPress dashboard bridging the gap between commercial WordPress products and the central user interface.

The free plugin was created and launched by developer Brad Touesnard to streamline the process of purchasing themes and plugins, and to provide a new venue for developers without a platform of their own to sell their products. WP App Store elegantly combines the multiple steps previously needed to locate, download, upload and activate themes and plugins into one step directly in the WP dashboard.

“WP App Store was built as a solution to the challenges I personally faced while trying to build and sell plugins,” said Brad Touesnard, creator of WP App Store. “There were a number of theme and plugin marketplaces out there, but there was still a huge disconnect between the purchase process and the installation process in the WP dashboard. The commercial WordPress market is growing quickly and WP App Store solves some important problems for both buyers and sellers. We have so many amazing vendors on board and I’m very excited for what’s to come.”

WP App Store is built entirely on the WordPress platform and Touesnard partnered with WP Engine to ensure fast, reliable service. Vendors on WP App Store will also have access to a special API which reports back on purchasers of their products so they can offer better support options and be provided a more robust picture of their audience.

Official advisors to WP App Store include Carl Hancock of rocketgenius, Jason Cohen of WP Engine, and Adii Pienaar of WooThemes. WooThemes was the first vendor to sign on to the project, and partnering vendors now include rocketgenius, Press75 and more.

“We were thrilled when Brad brought WP App Store to our door because it solves a tremendous pain point for our 200,000+ users,” said Adii Pienaar, co-founder of WooThemes. “WP App Store not only closes the gap between the WP dashboard and commercial WP products, it plays a huge part in WooThemes’ continued focus to provide our users with the most curated experience for building a website. We really believe in what Brad is doing with WP App Store and what it means for the larger WordPress community and building out the WordPress stack.”

To get started with WP App Store, upload and install the free plugin. Browse screenshots, demo links and version information on themes and plugins in the store or view purchased products and re-install if needed. Filter and sort themes by category and publisher, and when you’re ready to purchase, simply click the large green Buy Install button to start the process.

In addition to manually installing the free plugin, WP App Store is also partnering with vendors to add a little code to their themes and plugins that will allow a user to install the WP App Store plugin with one click. They are also working on partnerships with several hosting providers to install the WP App Store by default on any new WordPress installations.

Features of WP App Store include:

  •     One central location to browse, compare, purchase and install the top themes and plugins
  •     Lower barrier to entry for new theme and plugin developers to sell new products
  •     Cloud storage of all purchases so they can be easily accessed and downloaded at any time
  •     Ratings and reviews to help customers compare and contrast products coming soon after launch

moShare Makes Mobile Content Sharing Easier with WordPress Plugin

LOS ANGELES–(BUSINESS WIRE)–

moShare, the world’s first
web-to-mobile sharing service, today announced the availability of the
moShare WordPress plugin, that allows the free and easy integration of
moShare’s mobile content sharing functionality to any website built
using WordPress.

moShare is the quickest way for users to share any content (e.g., news,
videos and photos) from any website to any mobile phone via Multimedia
Messaging Service (MMS) technology. More than 90 percent of content
shared via moShare is opened by recipients on their mobile devices, 40
percent of whom then click through to the referring website, resulting
in increased traffic to sites that add the moShare button.

“We knew that social sharing was critical in increasing website
visibility, but we were pleasantly surprised to see how much more
engaged the visitors who were driven to us through moShare are,” said
Joey Flores, CEO and co-founder of Earbits. “They stay on our site
longer, visit more pages and are, in general, becoming repeat visitors.
This is much better than what we had hoped for in a social sharing
plugin.”

The moShare button is commonly placed alongside the Facebook, Twitter or
Google+ buttons already being used by most web developers. These buttons
are designed specifically to enable the sharing of content and create a
more engaged audience.

“WordPress is the backbone of many of today’s top blogs. The one common
goal of each of these WordPress sites is increasing their audience and
traffic,” said Noel Saw, senior UX designer and WordPress provocateur.
“The moShare plugin helps accomplish this goal by enabling blog visitors
to share the site’s content directly to their closest friends’ phones.
You can’t get more qualified and engaged traffic than by visiting a link
shared by a friend.”

With this new plugin, users of WordPress—the most popular content
management system in use on the Internet—can easily add the moShare
button directly on their websites, making the content instantly
shareable for visitors to the site.

“More than 73 million sites use WordPress to create and post their
online content. Developing this plugin enables the entire WordPress
community to add the first share to mobile social button,” said James
Citron, CEO of Mogreet. “Adding moShare functionality to a website
enables publishers to reach readers on their mobile device – the primary
device in most people’s lives.”

moShare is built on Mogreet’s dynamic mobile messaging platform that is
used by Fortune 1000 companies and small business alike to enable their
customers to become loyal brand ambassadors. For information on how to
get the moShare WordPress plugin, visit www.moshare.com/get_button.html.

the delivery of rich media to mobile devices. The company works with
