Cards Layout – showcase content in responsive card grids

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 · 58% 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.

At the current install trend, crossing 500+ in roughly 95 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.

   Quick to configure, responsive card grid looks great on mobile. Support was prompt when I asked about alignment options. Would love drag-and-drop ordering in future versions, but overall super useful!

   I’ve used this plugin on multiple client websites. It’s lightweight, easy to use, and the card designs are very modern. The responsiveness and customization options are great. Highly recommended!
