Update activity

How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.

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 does it exactly what it says. As always, the Drip team make life on WP easy by developing seemingly sophisticated tools in way that makes life easy. We used this plugin to add Drip tags and back-end marketing automation for free reports we provide on pages and pop-ups, instead of using a complete (and heavier/slower) automation tool like WP Fusion users are tag once they land on the report page (not during user creation or email sign-up, reducing load times). (BTW, we use WP Fusion on all of our other sites for Drip integration). Easy plugin, works well straight out of the box.

    Makes it so easy on WordPress to integrate Drip into the site. The Drip configuration took longer than this integration.

    I am a customer and huge fan of[ link redacted, please do not post links in the reviews section ] Drip. While I could have easily added the tracking code to my sites manually, I opted for this plugin that allowed me to install in one click and then enter my customer number to configure. I had it installed, configured and running in under a minute. Now, all visitors to my site receive an offer to signup for my free 7 day marketing crash course… all managed by Drip. This plugin works flawlessly. If you’ve always wanted to do drip marketing with your WordPress site, this plugin combined with the Drip service is how to accomplish it.
