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. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

   Bases on the other reviews it seem it worked at one point and then it just stopped working. The paid version worked for most of the time but the vendor seems to have problems refunding his customers for the days the plugin didn’t work. Sad and a bit shady.

   It sort of works…. but I implemented on a client site and found it unreliable, and also found it required payment in order to have anything more than the bog basic features. Overall, I think it would not be hard to do this better. …I will have to build a plugin of my own to suit my clients needs.

   This WAS hands down the best plugin on the market if you own a gold or precious metals site. We loved it to bits – the constant update feed was a perfect thing to have in a site header. Unfortunately the free version is now broken. I say broken because it only updates twice a day (which is pointless) and shows $zero amounts for half the day. To get the function the free version DID have up until a few days ago you need to subscribe at a huge monthly fee or $200 a year. If the plugin did more that would almost be worth it on a site that generates good money, but on a free informative site it makes no economic sense. Such a shame – this was a brilliant simple plugin. The price for the new version is beyond ridiculous. Here’s hoping that fee goes to something more realistic and we may continue using the plugin – but failing that the new free version is useless. Sorry.

   This plugin works great. I have ironed out the kinks. Please do not listen to moulan. It works just fine. It is only 3 months old and has only been down twice. This moulan person is 100% incorrect.

   The idea of this service is very nice but it seems like a trial without the necessary and required manpower continuity. Today Jan 4 the database is failing again with a price that is 50 dollars out.
