Ghost Kit – Page Builder Blocks, Motion Effects & Extensions

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. 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. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

   I’ve been using Ghostkit for almost 5 years now. However it was the first time I paid for pro last year.] Turns out the “pro” is only updated once a year, leaving you with months of waiting for bugs to be resolved. Free version isn’t getting much love either. I love Ghostkit and wished to see it emerge as the pioneering block plugins, but sorry, they just don’t deliver.

   in addition to the icon block that can support svg, it is also supported by the css and javascript editing fields, just with this you don’t need to install several plugins

   So many great blocks and abilities. Super powers the editor. Only thing i’ve found is some of the accessibility on some blocks could be improved.

   I’ve been using Ghost Kit on a couple of sites and find it really easy to use, plus the features and blocks provide almost everything you need in one place.
