Accept Authorize.NET Payments Using Contact Form 7

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 53% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

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 small install base leaves thin data to model from. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

Reviewers keep coming back to the support team, which sorts out theme and plugin conflicts quickly, and nobody's flagging problems that went unanswered.

   Couldn’t make the plugin work on my site – so reached out and got stellar support. It took a little while to solve it – but ended well. Thanks for quick and diligent help – even when I was messing things up a little bit during the process… 🙂
