No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

    I just wanted to share how fantastic this WordPress plugin has been for us.When migrating from our old platform, I was quite concerned about managing years of accumulated incoming links, especially ensuring our new page set covered everything we might have forgotten. Your plugin made the entire process incredibly simple. It allowed us to quickly review and fix all the necessary redirects during our release, which saved us a huge amount of time and effort. It’s truly an essential tool, and we really appreciate all the work on it.
