Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
Release cadence
Actively maintainedHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Estimated value
What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.
Est. annual revenue
Est. acquisition value
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.

Its a good idea to create such plugin and could be useful but when i try to activate, my website become dead. A message shown “There has been a critical error on this website. Please check your site admin email inbox for instructions.”Only way to fix it , was to login to server and rename the folder of plugin.Then website start to work again and logged to wordpress admin .Then renamed again folder to original name and on plugins of admin i clicked button to delete.Not work on 6.2 version wordpress . (I have PHP 7.4 and mysql 8.0)
