Biggest opportunity: “email marketing”, “lead capture forms” and “marketing automation” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

0.2%

of downloads still active

At least 20 of 11.9K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Email & Marketing plugin keeps 0.9%, across 1,294 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Email & Marketing 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 6 releases 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.

Not enough installs to measure. This needs at least 100 active sites; below that, a handful of downloads reads as tens of thousands.

What its installed base runs

via wordpress.org

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.

v6.0 100%

Estimated active installs

The public count shows “20+”. Our estimate pins where the real number sits.

tracked estimate
20–30 ≈22

Crossed into this band 2 months ago and a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, so the real count is still just over 20.

At the current install trend, crossing 30+ in roughly 580 days.

    We use Genoo’s plugin to obtain live feeds of current classes for the adult ed program The Center for Lifelong Learning, and it is indeed a key to our site’s UX. Students/prospective students can view in real time upcoming classes filtered by a variety of criteria that are set up on Genoo’s site. The output for WordPress are shortcodes that can be placed pretty much anywhere in the site and that expand to listings for classes. We also have had good experiences with the newsletter capabilities and lead capture functionality. Genoo’s customer service and dev team are responsive and have pushed fixes even on off hours when needed. While we don’t use the entirety of their service, I can tell you that the Lumens-Genoo connection is great for schools with constantly changing class data and the need for real time information, inc. links to register for classes. Thanks Genoo!

    This integrates seamlessly with my Genoo Email Marketing Automation system, and I could not be happier with it. Easy to use, remarkably flexible, and completely responsive to anything I’ve set up within my Genoo system. Yes, only Genoo users will use this. My question for you is this: if you’re not using Genoo, why not? You’re missing out on the best value and most flexible platform for the money. Disclosure: I do NOT work for Genoo, and they aren’t paying me to write this. 🙂 I just think their platform is amazing!
