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 · 100% 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.

At the current install trend, crossing 60+ in roughly 1662 days.

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.

   The idea is great but plugin does not work at all. Rewrite rules are added to the .htaccess file and special script appeared in /uploads/atec-webp. But nothing more. No files were converted. Also, I can’t delete this plugin, because WordPress shows critical error. Only backup from server helped me. So, be careful, installing it! UPDATE: The problem with deactivation is fixed in the latest release. So you can fearlessly install this plugin This topic was modified 1 year, 6 months ago by skifos.

   The webP format offers a high compression rate, resulting in smaller image sizes while maintaining high quality.The plugin hooks into image requests and automatically converts JPEG, PNG, BMP, and GIF into the webP format, thereby saving bandwidth. Once converted, subsequent requests are sent to the webP pendant.This process is running in the background – without any configuration.Activate the plugin and turn on the conversion – that’s it.As a plus, the plugin can scan the entire uploads folder for images and display file statistics.
