Mapster WP Maps

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 · 14% 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.

   I’ve used Mapster WP Maps Pro for over a year now, and the functionality and flexibility are excellent. What’s even BETTER though, is the support. Victor has not only created fantastic documentation and walkthrough videos, but his personal involvement in the project is amazing. We had questions, he answered. We had difficulties, he dove in and helped us figure them out. I can’t recommend this plugin (pay for it!) highly enough. Thank you Victor!

   This is a fantastic plugin to generate a map on your site. This is making a huge difference for my site. It’s not hard to figure out how to use, and when I ran into an issue, I quickly got support from the team and got it resolved and the map published in no time. Thanks again for a quality plugin!

   The plugin is extremely robust with options for most everything you can want in a map locator. The developer was exceptionally responsive and even added several new features at our request. Couldn’t be more pleased, highly recommend!

   I’ve used this plugin to create custom maps for waymarkers that render and integrate beautifully with my website. Recently, I was facing an issue when a WordPress update broke some settings on the website and Victor was very gracious with his time and lent valuable support to get the maps rendering on the website again!Highly recommend!
