Internal Linking of Related Contents

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 · 81% 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. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

   It wasn’t working for me on php8.1, several warnings showing and no related content showed, so I let the dev know about it. A couple days after, a new version was released, no more warnings and related content boxes show as expected. Great plugin and great support. Thank you!

   I use this product every day and I am very happy with the way my WP articles look. Also, this plugin helps me build the coveted silos. Still, the most impressive aspect of this product is support: I have never seen such a responsive and professional support and I use many many plugins.

   I was seeking for a plugin like this but my site is AMP. So my review is based on that, other than that, it works as advertised.
