Better image sizes

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 · 76% 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.

   Great plugin. It lets you cut out all the random image sizes (and their file bloat) so you can just make the image sizes you actually need. One of the first plugins I install for every build. I’m so thankful to the developer for carrying on the legacy of the deprecated “Fly Images” plugin.

   This is a great successor to Fly Dynamic Image Resizer, which is no longer maintained. The focal-point picker is a feature I wish WP would add to core (see github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/20321). Thanks for all your hard work on this plugin!
