High removal-risk signals

- Long abandoned. No update in 7+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 5.2.26, well behind 6.8.

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.
What its installed base runs
via wordpress.orgShare of active installs on each version of this plugin · 100% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

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.

This is a great plugin that does exactly what it claims to do. I hope that the developer updates the plugin often so that it can keep up with changes in technology.

One of the plugins I install on a fresh website. Works as is. Thanks a lot to the developer!

My thoughts are this is a great plugin and the easiest option to implement Workers. There are three main ways to get your TTFB to < 200ms with Cloudflare. 1. Fully optimize the traditional way totally free, but time consuming. 2. Use WP2Static and Workers – not very convenient, but easyish and $5 per month. 3. This plugin – easiest to set up and flexibility of the traditional way. What I do like about this plugin is you can still run it from regular WordPress so it’s super convenient, as you don’t have to rebuild your site like WP2Static. Also you can get a standard Cloudflare TTFB to under 200ms, yet people are so used to the cliche that WordPress is slow the myth lives on! Workers aren’t magic. They still use the same CDN as the free tier, but for devs especially it gives you more options. Definitely give this plugin a try. Don’t be put off by the lack of updates, it’s only a simple script. Much respect to Patrick for giving the community this little gem. 🙂 This topic was modified 6 years, 5 months ago by David Elstob.

Pretty amazing on how good it works. It turned down my FTTP to 800ms to 300ms

very good solution for edge cache
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ dsoneil7.6y ago
Though I’ve spent time tuning my server for performance, with Cloudfare, this simple plugin plus a Cloudflare Worker does boost TTFB enough to be worth the added $5+ per month.

This lightweight plugin works well to improve site load times in parallel with the (paid) worker feature of Cloudflare. For most smaller sites this will cost around $5 a month, and the price scaling is very reasonable. Have been running it without issue for a few days and page load times are noticeably improved. Just waiting access to the Cloudflare KV program so it doesn’t have to flush the cache every time I update a post or reply to a comment.
