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.

Reviewer account pattern

from wp.org reviewer profiles

8 of the last 10 four- and five-star reviews came from accounts created within a month of posting the review.

Registering a wp.org account just to leave a review is common and often entirely legitimate. The share here is unusually high for the sample, so it's worth keeping in mind while reading the reviews.

    We discovered the plugin and service lately, and we’re surprised how easy and helpful it is! I can’t confirm the negative reviews from the past, but the new owner seems to take it very seriously and improves the plugin + service quite well. We can recommend Image SEO to anyone who doesn’t want to optimize their images for SEO manually.

    I purchased this plugin in Oct ’23 and it did not work as advertised, the results were extremely poor and pretty much unusable.I requested a refund several times since October 2023 without a single reply from them or any offer of assistance or a refund.I would not recommend this company or their products to anyone.

    I subscribed to the 1000 credits option and purchased an additional 500 credits. I ran your plug-in in, and it was not generating any results but was taking away credits from my account. After writing your support, I received no response, so I canceled my subscription. Upon cancelation, my remaining 1000 credits from the subscription were removed from my account, followed by the removal of the additional 500 credits. This plug-in is a scam does not work, and is not supported.

    I installed the app with €250.00 credit and started to add in alt tags…it ran and ran and ran. but no alt tags were added. Contacted support and nothing, nowt..zilch, nada.They have €250.00 of my money and I have nothing to show for it other than a broken app. This topic was modified 2 years, 11 months ago by philb123.

    A 0-star plugin. Shouldn’t have been installed, would have been better if I have checked its review here first. It gives 10 credits for a free user even after registering with them. 10 Credit means 10 images? Who would install it?

    This plugin is not generating any alt texts. I did try the free package and then upgraded to 100 credits just to text. It deleted all the alt texts i had on the pictures and replaced them with no text at all. Did run another test on the blank alt text pictures. Then it generated the same text on all the pictures. The alt text where “footer -“.. This makes no sence. I have emailed support today and hopefully i get a good answer how this is fixed. Untill then i give this plugin 1 star since it just made everything much worse and i have to restore to a website backup.
