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.

At the current install trend, crossing 80+ in roughly 46 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.

The one review here is happy: it restored a missing download button on a block theme where another plugin fell short, with a note that more options would help.

   I recently switch to ‘Greenshift’ block theme and ‘Free Downloads WooCommerce’ hides the ‘add to cart’ but didn’t show the ‘download’ button. Your plugin helped. Need more options but this is a good start. Thank you!
