Content Audit

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 · 88% 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 90+ in roughly 610 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.

   This is a light-weight plugin that’s very approachable.. I’ve found people like using it. I could imagine more robust reporting features and other small polishes, but this plugin pretty much does exactly what it says and works great.

   Tried this out on my site last week. You can use it to label your posts and pages, then filter them by a criteria. So for example to find: all posts that need rewriting; or all pages that are up-to-date. There are a few additional features, such as emailing you when it’s more than a year since a post was updated. On the whole, this is a nice and simple, sensible plugin to use, particularly on a website with a lot of content. This topic was modified 9 years, 1 month ago by Jason King.

   We use WordPress as our content management system. One thing we needed from any CMS was the ability to flag outdated content and contact the author to review the content for updates. Oddly, this is almost non-existent with most web CMS solutions. This is working very well for us. Now if we can just get the authors to stop ignoring the emails and actually review and update their content. Thank you for this excellent plugin.

   Content Audit is really excellent for helping manage documentation for something like a WordPress Plugin.

   Great plugin with a few minor issues that doesn’t stop it being used and are more luxuries that necessities….but support is quite slow for what I consider quite important fixes after last 2 updates. Would love more support with this from the author
