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.
Release cadence
No release in a yearHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

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

I wish I could give 10 out of 5 to the embed-code plugin. You can add separate header and footer codes for each post and page. One can easily add structured data to improve SEO using the embed-code plugin. You can also embed one code to all pages and posts (such as for google analytics.) I received excellent support from the embed-code team. Some of my posts were not embedding intended codes. The embed-code support team dug deep into the issue, researched other plugins that caused the problem, and solved it. Way above five star ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

This plugin is really easy to use for code embedding. You can choose to embed to the page header or to the page bottom (works on a whole site). Easy to understand and easy to use.
