HTML5 Maps

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

118 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 20 listed. 84 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words).

   Needed help transferring the map from one domain to the other. The import/export tool makes it easy but I had an error. The email support was excellent and responsive.

   Responsive, easy to use and feature rich even in the free version. Sometimes free plugins, are so featureless they are unusable. There is a enough features in this free version to make it worth using, and the list of features in the upgraded version seem logical at least to me. I replaced my boring old regular html sitemap with this. When my site takes off, I have no problem upgrading.

   I played around with the free version first. If you go to the author’s website there is a demo plugin that you can install to try out all of the premium features. Being able to play with the demo convinced me to buy the premium version of the plugin. Well worth the money and customer support is great. No complaints at all.

   I was trying to get this maps for SEO purpose but it did not work for me as I expected. I requested a refund and they refused to refund. Now I will have to charge back the transactions with my bank. Why is it so difficult to refund
