Jetpack Boost – Website Speed, Performance and Critical CSS

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.

   Après des années a avoir utilisé ce programme, je me retrouve avec des headers qui ne s’affiche pas sur certaines pages (site de 350 pages) , plus de 10 heures de recherche avec l’IA, pour enfin découvrir que c’est jetpack qui pose problème ( je travail avec WP 6.9 et maintenant 7.0 et Elementor pro et Hello ), très bon programme, mais si vous avez des problème sur votre site, désactivé Jetpack et vidé votre cache avant de chercher plus loin
