Glossary Tooltip – Highlight Terms Automatically and Show Tooltips

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

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. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

   I am currently using CM Tooltip Glossary but it has a lot of extra features which make me confused. I was always looking for a plugin that has the required features for tooltip glossary and I found this. It’s very simple and comes with only the essential features, also, it is very easy to setup. Thanks for offering this.
