We invited Mika Epstein to join us on WP Product Talk with co-host Zack Katz to talk about the trials and tribulations of the WordPress.org Plugin Directory. As fate would have it, this episode was scheduled on the heels of a lot of furor in the WP Product space around how WordPress.com has added the product pages from WordPress.org to its site and now shows up often first in search results. We decided to take this opportunity to deviate from our normal format and talk a little more in depth about this issue and its implications for WP Product owners who depend on the Plugin Directory for their livlihood.
