How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.

Estimated value
What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.
Est. annual revenue
Est. acquisition value
A small install base leaves thin data to model from. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay. The range spans more than 10x because wp.org publishes install counts as broad bands, and conversion and price compound on top. Read the midpoint as an order of magnitude, not a valuation.
How we estimate this
Assumptions
- Free → paid conversion. 0.5%–2% of active installs pay for the pro tier. Typical for freemium WordPress plugins; the real rate varies a lot by product.
- Annual price per customer. $49–$129 a year, typical for WordPress plugins rather than this plugin's own pricing.
- Acquisition multiple. 1.5x–2.5x annual revenue, the going range for small WordPress-plugin businesses, compressed because the install trend is declining.
- Install base. 1K–2K active installs, from our install estimate (wp.org only publishes the floor).
Inputs

Revenue is installs × conversion × price; value is revenue × a typical acquisition multiple. Every factor is an assumption band, so the output is a wide range on purpose. If you're buying or selling, treat this as a starting point for due diligence.

Happy to restrict the free version to 1 image, but do not like the image icon being displayed. Plugin removed for this reason. This topic was modified 3 years, 5 months ago by MrWrighty.

This useful plugin is working very well and does exactly what we needed. The author was very helpful with a special problem we had so that we could solve it quickly and without much effort. Thanks a lot for this plugin and your help!

Great plugin. Plus the author sent me JS code to fix a scrolling issue – and – CSS code to improve user experience – and this was before I bought the Pro version. This topic was modified 7 years, 4 months ago by nicholas012. This topic was modified 7 years, 4 months ago by nicholas012.

Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ gilcantinelli8.3y ago
Great but it’s written nowhere in your explanation that Lite version will authorize ONLY ONE MAP !!!!! So I work one hour on a second map and when i published it, a message appear that i can’t because i don’t have the paid version !!!!! I will change my review if you change your description here 😉 This topic was modified 8 years, 2 months ago by gilcantinelli.

But – a little problem with another language besides English (with diacritical marks) and PHP must be at least 5.6
