Content Area Block

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 · 100% 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. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

   I find this plugin exceptionally well done. Stumbled upon this while searching for a way to accomplish this myself (guess the article on your website helped a lot!). I think this should make it into the WordPress Core, but meanwhile it’s cool, that it’s in the plugin repository. This was the missing piece to build my client’s website in a really sustainable way as a blocks theme. I like how it comes without any further ceremony, following the philosophy “Do one thing and do it good”. Please maintain this in future releases. Thank you! ❤️ This topic was modified 6 months ago by Kevin Koslowski. Reason: removed HTML code
