Go Redirects URL Forwarder

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 · 100% run the current release. 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.

At the current install trend, crossing 2K+ in roughly 1625 days.

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 want exactly what this plug-in does, but without the /go/ subdirectory. It defeats my purpose … I put out a newsletter and it has a bad URL published in it. I simply want to have that ‘bad’ url, if clicked to take it to the good URL … which neither use the /go/ subdirectory.

   Does exactly what it says on the tin. I’m amazed more people aren’t using this. You can use it to mask referral and affiliate links, or just simply use it to save editing links across many pages on your website.
