Biggest opportunity: Swap “listings”, “real estate” and “realtor” for “mls search”, “headway themes” and “headway”. “listings” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “mls search” sits at #7 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “real estate” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “headway themes” sits at #10 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “realtor” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #17. “headway” sits at #12 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active
At least 1K of 391.5K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,764 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 1 release in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

What to do about it
- Swap “listings”, “real estate” and “realtor” for “mls search”, “headway themes” and “headway”. “listings” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “mls search” sits at #7 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “real estate” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “headway themes” sits at #10 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “realtor” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #17. “headway” sits at #12 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- One page off on “idx”. #12 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
- One page off on “mls”. #12 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

Thanks support for helping me setup my IDX and working with my developer. Glad my developer is able to talk to someone at Diverse Solutions as questions arise. Nice easy search on my website and ability to see live listings. Hope to see more functionality added soon.

I am able to actual talk to someone at Diverse for sales or support. Support are real people that I can call and get great support. Diverse Solutions WordPress Plugin is very easy to use and pricing is on par with other IDX’s. My developer had an easy time using the tools and got my website up really fast. Diverse Solutions partners with AgentFire who does a great job using this plugin.

First, I am not a WordPress developer which I think is important to know since I am not reviewing how usable Diverse Solutions IDX property search is to install and maintain on a WordPress site. This review is for realtors who are looking for IDX home search solution for their websites. I only chose Diverse Solutions as my MLS provider did not support some of the other highly reviewed WordPress IDX plugin solutions. If you are looking for IDX software that is modern, beautiful, and well supported in terms of being evolved by the development team, I personally would look elsewhere, which is what I’m doing as I never wanted to promote my blog or website due to the sub-par UX of Diverse Solutions. Note they have a 30 day cancellation policy. Diverse Solutions IDX has several major flaws: The user experience is old fashioned and the software is not being updated to address basic issues like having the MLS number in the H1 along with an address even if a house is not for sale. (They’re not fixing this.) Sold / off market listings are difficult to see compared to active listings since the only indication it is sold is an 8 point mls status line buried along with other home details. Compare that to any other real estate website where it’s obvious what a house status is. (They’re not fixing this.) Things like wanting to show the “top 25 most expensive homes” on a blog post are not doable. They’ll show a few then there’s a tiny link below the several listings to go view all listings. This takes you away from the blog post with a heading to see listings “matching your search” even though the website visitor didn’t actually conduct a search. (They’re not fixing this.) Often it was difficult to get an address to show up even by typing a few characters when a house had been on the market for a while. Additionally trying to figure out what Diverse IDX wanted you to type in to get correct results was a mystery. Can Diverse Solutions overlay a pop up of listing information when you click a house listing on a map? I don’t know but currently on my site where I will be removing Diverse Solutions it goes to a new page. You will long forget you were ever on a neighborhood guide unless you love using a Back button.Do I have any positive things to say about Diverse Solutions? It can be a way to generate leads, if you decide it’s good enough to want to promote it. As of 2023 the price went up $15 / month. Yet there is no evidence why and especially when enhancements are concerned.

Thank you Jordan for your excellent help & support. This is the plugin to choose for IDX! Thank you again for your great customer service!

Jordan Torres was extremely responsive and helpful while trying to customize a feature of the plugin for my site. He stayed on the phone with me to experiment and find a solution in a patient and timely manner. I recommend this plugin because of the wonderful customer service and IT support I have received!

Highly recommend this plugin! Today our team connected with MR. Dolan, he did an over the top job explaining this product to all of us and how it will help with a new Real Estate brokerage we are working with. We have built many sites for small to medium sized businesses but never for a real estate agency. He spent much time answering our many questions. We can confidently say our team now better understands the concept of the MLS and how this plugin will help us manage the leads and properties from all of the MLS on our theme.

Was having trouble getting Google Maps to work on my website and reached out to the support team and they were able to get everything up and running quickly. They do not wait days to get back to me that other IDX companies do. Thank you!

As a professional website designer and marketing specialist I highly recommend this product if your working on a specific project that requires an MLS/IDX solution. The Diverse Solutions IDX product will automatically adopt the them being used and also gave my team access to the CSS for additional modifications. The SEO benefits of the plugin have already complimented the organic marketing our team has been doing on the site. Once added to our site, the end result was great, and more importantly our client was extremely satisfied. We worked with Sean Dolan during the discovery portion of our project, he was extremely knowledgeable and diligent about getting back to various members of our team quickly. Unlike other companies we reached out to, never once did we feel like we are just being sold. Thanks to everyone at Diverse Solutions for all your help and support getting this setup on the website.
