Pretty much like a theme marketplace, a WordPress plugin marketplace is where WordPress developers can sell their plugins. The benefit for you is that you can choose from a range of different plugins<\/a>, and only opt for the ones that best fit your needs. Creative Market, CodeCanyon and MOJO Marketplace are three of the most popular such marketplaces out there. Which one is best? Today we compare them:<\/p>\n

WordPress plugin marketplace comparison: MOJO, Creative Market and CodeCanyon<\/h2>\n

Creative Market<\/h3>\n

Creative Market<\/a> has always had a reputation of being more of a designer’s domain and less about code. This, indeed, is true. You will find more graphics, fonts and stock images here than WordPress themes or plugins. But that does not mean WordPress is left out unrepresented.<\/p>\n

Basically, Creative Market has a recently added and sparsely populated WordPress plugins section. As of now, it claims to have “40 plugins from independent creators”. Very clearly, the focus of Creative Market is on WordPress themes. Plugins are yet to be given the driver’s seat.<\/p>\n

That said, the catalog is not something out of the ordinary. You can have “coming soon” plugins for $10 or a JigoShop to WooCommerce migration plugin for $50, and so on. However, all products in this WordPress plugin marketplace are GPL<\/a>. You do not have to pay extra for proper support either.<\/p>\n

You should consider looking at Creative Market WP plugins’ section if you aren’t looking for a niche-centric plugin. “WordPress plugin for wedding websites” is probably not what you can find here. However, if you are looking for a clean-coded shortcodes plugin<\/a> or a simple WooCommerce extension for a fraction of the price that you might find elsewhere, Creative Market is the place to go!<\/p>\n

In other words, you may not find many GPL-ready $5-$10 WordPress plugins on Creative Market.<\/p>\n
