CTC Masonry Gallery 🎨

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 · 97% 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.

   SO this plugin makes really nice masonry galleries with a little hover effect that’s elegant looking and responsive and a complete pleasure to use for certain projects. I have clients who want this feature without all the hassle of the big gallery plugins, or who don’t have the budget for me to design a gallery myself…and CTC Masonry Gallery fits the bill. It’s perfect that way.

   I like so much the way it can set the order of image, so easy to change them. Nice to use. Still it can improve certain aspects.The developer responds quickly. Thanks for your help! Good Plugin!
