roykolakon How the new Chrome Web Store increased signups by 1000%

This is absolutely true and for me, it was a real shocker. I developed an extension called Better History. Before the redesign, I had 500 active users.

On the day of the redesign, installs skyrocketed. Everyday since has seen a 2,000 to 3,000 user increase. At the moment it's up to 11,000.

I did prepare some promotions that I think really helped get Better History some face time.
