Advanced Sermons

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 · 89% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Modeled within the band wp.org reports; tightens as we track daily.

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.

   I am quite impressed with the Advanced Sermons plugin. It is easy to configure and use, even for non-techies. Support questions are answered almost immediately and quite thoroughly. Kudos to the team!

   I had to contact support as a recent update to my theme (Blocksy) caused my post excerpts to disappear. After working with the Blocksy support team, we determined that Advanced Sermons may have something to do with it. I contacted WPCodeus support. Although they are working on an updated of Advanced Sermons (v. 3), it wasn’t ready yet. Kevin from the support team was able to modify code in the Advanced Sermons Pro functions to bypass the problem until the new version is made public. Kevin was able to do it quickly, and everything is working as it should. Quick response to the problem, which is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

   Very limited features are free. All feature are premium. i think it’s useless.

   I’ve been searching for a sermon plugin for a while, and saw this pop up. Unfortunately, the free version is practically useless, which is a real shame. Other free plugins at least offer some useful features, whereas this one limits what feels like 90% of the features, and most of those I’d consider essential…
