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. 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. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

   <div class="intelly-related-posts"> You can add so that the block is like this? There is unfortunately no unique content we can trigger. The style tag doesn’t have any id or attribute. This is very inconvenient for the site to work, if you exclude the insertion of advertising in this block.

   The plugin’s great until my WordPress site started to crash frequently. Turns out, my WP_OPTIONS table grew because it was loaded with IRP_POSTs. Not using this anymore.

   Bardzo fajna, słabo powiązuje posty raczej są losowe – ale przydatna jako zachęcenie do czytania innych treści. Łatnie też się prezentuje – szkoda że nie ma do ustawiania własnych kolorów w wersji darmowej – w sensie własny kod koloru.
