No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

    This plugin is so lame and restrictive, Could’ve been a good choice in 2010 but its not for current needs of a landing page.

    I’ve been wanting a landing page on my site for a couple months now, but the only recommendation was for a service not in my current budget. So I gritted my teeth and began looking at my free options. I tested out about three or four, reading their reviews, actually installing them, launching them, and testing them. Landing page cat was the best fit for my needs. It is clean and professional. I love the picture options for the background. Other landing page plugins may allow a little more customization, but can be confusing. Some wouldn’t let me delete features which I had no use for. My only hesitation with this plugin was that there is no way for the user to “opt out.” I was able to add it in manually by attaching the landing page to my homepage, and putting in a link that says “Continue to Site,” which led to a specific url on my page. That way users can subscribe to my email list but don’t have to. And I understand the developers may be putting in this feature soon. So far customer support is very good.

    I’ve used the fat cat pricing tables for a long time now and have been very happy with it. So I thought I’d give their landing page plugin a go too. It was really easy to set up, something that is very important for me. It looks great too. If it’s anything like the pricing tables I expect it to get even better over time. Keep up the good work!
