Biggest opportunity: “google sheet” and “importer” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

0.5%

of downloads still active

At least 40 of 8.7K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,183 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other eCommerce plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

This plugin shipped 2 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

    This is a great plugin, and it does what it said! Set-up is so easy comparing to other similar plugins from the market. It works by converting the first sheet of a Google Sheet into CSV then pass it to the default WooCommerce product importer, making the import smooth and the use of the official importer is a great idea, as it will be always the most updated way to import products. What I would like from the further releases: Option to automatically delete the CSV after the import is finished, as it will add a few files to the Media Gallery; Automatically product import cron, daily, hourly, etc. Export products from WooCommerce to Google Sheets using like it does when importing, only that when you export to put CSV data automatically into the selected Google Sheet Automatically product export cron, daily, hourly, etc. Ideally would be to support multiple Google Sheets, as it can differ from use-case to use-case, for example I would like to have a category of products, let’s say clothes, permanently synced with Google Sheet in an hourly basis, both directions, and also would like to manually import new products from another Google Sheet.

    Connecting to the Google Drive API to import a spreadsheet of all product information is so much faster than updating them one-by-one on WordPress. This allows a quick connection to your Google account and product spreadsheet. The only error I’ve encountered was choosing to import products by both ID and SKU at the same time (just choose one).

    Hello, I tried various plugins for bulk edit and import Woocommerce products and only this one worked perfect. Google Sheets can import properly .csv file exported from Woocommerce products page. After edit table, you can import and update products with this plugin. You can match fields while import, so i think this way will work for other e-commerce softwares’s product table files. Oleg Apanovich, thank you so much.
