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

Est. acquisition value

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.

    Nothing to really configure – I love VBout! This is basically HubSpot if you didn’t have sh*tloads of crap coming out all the time to justify the price.Just look at your dashboard on VBout and it is so much faster and more effective than trying to figure out google analytics. But you can import google analytics or Tag manager tracking there as a backup as well.

    I do wish it offered browser push support.

    This outstanding plugin lets you push your posts to your email subscribers as well as share them on social media in just 1 click. hours of work at least saved using it.
