Update activity

How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.

Release cadence

Actively maintained
from wp.org release tags

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Estimated value

What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.

Est. annual revenue

N/A

Est. acquisition value

N/A

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.

    I changed my domain which is nothing new. I removed, cleared cache, and reinstalled it. Yet my old domain is stuck and this means some content is not showing. This topic was modified 2 years, 4 months ago by Wayne.

    I often refer others to my blog about remodeling to a LEED Platinum standard or about my RV updates. The new search plugin makes this an easy task. The results are highly relevant and it’s easy to get back to the list of results with just a back page. A huge upgrade to my site.

    The plugin and its related service is just marvellous; support is really helpful and responsive. The overall UI/UX can be improved with a bit more options, for example the ability to select more search and display views.

    Both the search functionality and plugin support are excellent. Only limitation is in terms of design of the light box (popup) showing the results and filters. But then, that ensures the ease of integration…
