Popup Maker is a WordPress popup plugin; Pro adds analytics, targeting and triggers. Site owners use it to show popups, CTAs and forms. If you only need part of it, you can get a focused plugin built for your own site and pay once.
Popup Maker: $59.40 a year for one site (Pro).
Your own plugin on Pluginora: from $9 once, with 5 free changes. Try it first for $1.
What Popup Maker does
- Popup builder

What you can build instead

When Popup Maker is the better choice

- You need analytics and scheduling
- You want CRM integration
When your own plugin makes more sense
- You use one or two of its features, not the whole package.
- You would rather pay once than renew every year.
- You want it to work exactly the way your site needs, and to change it on request.
How to get your own
- Describe it. For example: “Show a newsletter popup when visitors scroll halfway down blog posts, once per week.”
- See the plan and price. Ora replies with what it will build and a fixed price. Nothing is built until you approve.
- Try it for $1. Test it on a practice site for 7 days, then keep it and pay the rest once.
