Cited GrowthDex tactics
- Chrome Web Store partial rollout after 10,000 active usersUse Chrome's percentage rollout only after the extension has real scale, then increase the rollout without another review while you watch for breakage.
- Chrome Web Store permission-change copy before forced re-acceptIf an update adds permissions, rewrite the listing, changelog, and support copy before submission so users understand the new ask when Chrome prompts them to accept or disable the extension.
- Chrome Web Store Verified CRX uploads before scaleOpt into Verified CRX uploads before the extension becomes business-critical so every package update has to be signed with your own key.
- Chrome Web Store channel inheritance on updateTreat release channels as sticky state, because Chrome publishes updates to the same channel as the last version unless you deliberately change distribution.
