Coming soon and Maintenance mode

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 · 67% 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.

12 of the last 19 four- and five-star reviews came from accounts created within a month of posting the review.

Registering a wp.org account just to leave a review is common and often entirely legitimate. The share here is unusually high for the sample, so it's worth keeping in mind while reading the reviews.

   Love the Coming Soon plugin, very versatile, worth getting the PRO version. Had something that I needed adding (our own font) and this was sorted out for me within 24 hours. Very recommended and would purchase other plugins when needed.

   Version pro acquise : Un problème d’affichage du logo et des icones de réseau sociaux, mais 24h après avoir laissé un message au support, le problème était résolu. Vu le prix de la licence, je ne suis pas déçu de cet achat, le résultat est top. Acquired pro version: A problem with the display of the logo and social network icons, but 24 hours after leaving a message to support, the problem was solved. Considering the price of the license, I’m not disappointed by this purchase, the result is great.

   I maintain the official site of the Municipality of Marathon, Attica, Greece. You can check the plugin here Municipality of Marathon. For our community is very critical to keep our people informed for upcoming events. This plugin is extremely easy to embedded in our pages and offer a clean information to our viewers. The plugin comes in form of a shortcode and you may only change the internal parameters. Of course it includes its own graphic interface to create new coming-soon events with custom images. It also may be used in multilingual sites as ours. It is light for desktops and mobiles. Thanks WpDevArt team!

   I had a problem with the free version and they actually logged into my site and solved it free of charge after not being able to resolve it via email. This company stands behind their product and the plugin works great.
