How to Become a Verified Developer on the Caesar Plugin Marketplace
Welcome to the Caesar Plugin Marketplace! We are excited to offer developers the opportunity to share their amazing plugins with the community. To maintain a high standard of quality and trust, we’ve implemented a Verified Developer program. This program helps users easily identify trustworthy developers and plugins.
Why Become a Verified Developer?
Being a Verified Developer grants you several benefits:
- Trust & Credibility: Verified status adds credibility to your profile and plugins, helping users feel confident about your work.
- Increased Visibility: Verified developers' plugins are more likely to be featured or recommended on the marketplace.
