Firstly I would say if you really only spent two nights of work on it then it is unlikely to be a hit ( unless it's a super original, simple plugin that everyone needs/ thinks they need ). Personally I spent ~10 months making endless series 3 ( I'm not bitter, honest ), although it's difficult to quantify the exact time spent when it's something you do in your spare time and you are learning as you go.

If you are going to sell you need to beta test it thoughly first IMO - not so important if you make a free plugin. also you need to be commitied to fixing problems that customers have - again IMO

I am kind of speculating here, but I think to sell well you need to put in quite a lot of effort on the publicizing- for example keeping threads going at kvr with new examples etc.

All of this stuff takes a great deal of time and energy and really makes you realise why people charge $$$ for plugins.
