Head Meta Data

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. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

   Hi there just installed your plugin and wonder if someone can help me. I’m running the wp 2021 theme and it won’t let me create a header for my home page. I don’t mean the site title, I mean header for my home page. There’s a box there for it, but it won’t register the title I put in it for some reason. Been told theme doesn’t support that but it’s affecting my SEO, so screming frog spider tells me 🙂
