Biggest opportunity: Swap “amazon” for “yourls”. “amazon” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “yourls” sits at #8 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active

At least 100 of 28.6K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,772 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

Removal-risk signals

53/100

Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.

  • Long abandoned. No update in 5+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 5.7.21.

    The plugin touts itself as being free. It is not. You either pay by giving a percentage of your click-throughs to a non-profit organization, or you pay $20 per month. Also, the plugin freezes every once in a while.

    I have created a support ticket on plugin page however the developer has not even bothered to reply or even acknowledge the problem, his support site doesn’t allow anyone to register as the account creation email simply not being sent, even after explaining this the developer has not even bothered to correct or respond, this shows that you will not get any support from the developer !

    The plugin stopped working on sep 21 2020, I had to wait for a day, write the email, try to find a solution, and lastly have to temporarily shift to a similar plugin named “flovidy”. The problem that I face since sep 21 was it stuck in redirection for forever. I hope the developer will fix the issue soon.

    Redirect Amazon to A ad page to amzaon. It’s a crap experience. While finding the curprit, I mistakenly review another amaon affiliate plugin with one star. This plugin is crappy and ruins overall experience by adding a redirect page.

    J’ai fais des tests avec des URL sur d’autres sites Amazon et il convertit bien vers mon site par défaut. Il reste juste à vérifier s’il est efficace pour enregistrer les ventes. This topic was modified 6 years, 4 months ago by blogjdinfos.
