Integrity Checker

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 · 36% run the current release. 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. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   Of course this plugin is not THE magic cure for infected sites, but it helped me to find many infected scripts on my site and i was able to fight back the hackers in a more efficient way. Great tool, does exactly what it says in a convenient way, showing you a diff view of the detected changes if you want, even realizing when there are ‘only whitespace changes’. This saved me a lot of work!

   I’ve modified the review after discussion with the author This is a very useful tool! The free API limit might be a little low if you want to test the site recurrently but it’s still a useful tool.
