CookieFox – Cookie Notice

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. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

   Perfect little plugin. Instead of bloated plugins that you have to pay for every year, just set up this plugin and use it freely forever. And if you’re worried about Google Consent Mode v2 and the integration of Google Tag Manager with this plugin, don’t worry because it’s also easy to do it by following the instructions on YouTube on how to setup Consent Mode v2 with any cookie-banner and GTM.[link removed by moderator; links are not permitted in reviews.] This topic was modified 2 years, 4 months ago by cvladan.

   Really like the small footprint and unobstructed interface. It’s setup-and-forget kind of plugins which many others forget to consider. Also made in Austria!
