Easy Notification Bar

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 · 65% 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 plugin worked exactly as advertised. It also felt good to use a plugin without any upsells or paywall. Best of luck with any project you may be working on.

   Me gustó mucho. Es justo como su nombre lo indica “Easy Notification Bar”. Lo recomiendo si quieres una configuración rápida y con un acabado estándar.

   One of the best notification plugins. Lightweight and easy to configure. What’s even better is the support you get from AJ. Amazing and patient with all your questions. Wish all plugin developers are like this. 5 stars!

   This plugin does exactly what it says. I have an older theme which does not have an easy way to add information above the header such as an announcement. After adding this simple plugin…it automatically appeared at the top and I was able to use simple HTML to add the text. VERY easy to use. Thank you!!

   The only thing I’m missing is that you can not set a end date, so people can forget easily to remove the banner again when it’s not needed anymore.
