Counters Block – showcase your stats with animated numbers

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 · 71% 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.

   Adds some zip to what can be an otherwise boring number display when you don’t want it linked to anything and just need to show some numbers in a counter.

   My experience of using this plugin is fantastic. It would be much better if this plugin supports decimal number. Thank you.

   I’m using this plugin since a couple of days and it works perfectly ! EVen in free version, there is already a lot of options. And “cherry on the cake” : I asked for a new option in the plugin and the suppport added it just after ! What else ? 😉 Thanks for your great plugin and your kindness ! 🙂

   I tried some others that were actually short-code based, not true Gutenberg blocks. This one is, and is amazingly simple and intuitive to use. I love it that bblock free blocks are so lightweight and don’t commit you to a whole collection that you don’t actually need.
