Minimal Coming Soon – Coming Soon Page

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 · 34% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Modeled within the band wp.org reports; tightens as we track daily.

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 declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

   I’ve gotten the premium/pro version of this but after lots of tries and trust, I give up. It’s a horrible plugin. Most of the time, I get white text on white backgrounds, or black text on black backgrounds, which is sloppy and lazy quality control by the plugin developer, even if I am using their stock themes: that’s their responsibility to correct. Also: every time you leave a page, even after saving, it says “are you sure” – simply bad coding. Time to give up after months and months. This topic was modified 6 months ago by focuspulling.

   This plugin breaks something in wordpress related to JSON. It interfere with WPML, it took me a while to figure out. If you install this plugin and you have WPML you will get API REST WordPress error. I deactivated all plugins 1 by 1 to find that this plugin was the culprit, everything is fully updated to latest versions.

   Very Disappointing PluginTotally unusable unless you pay a fortune, This should be banned from the wp store, its not in the spirit of GPL and WP, its just spammy. There is not even ONE Free theme to use and I say “theme” because the only free option is not themed at all just black text on a white background looking like it is from word.There are way better options out there people!I wouldn’t give them my money when they appear so stingy and spammy with the free version.“You know they say the best form and the worst form of marketing is word of mouth. Its also free, but can cost you the earth if you generate negative vibes.” This topic was modified 1 year, 2 months ago by derrickmg. This topic was modified 1 year, 2 months ago by derrickmg.

   Garish color schemes and begging every screen to get you to pay for it. Plugin does nothing. Do not install it.

   Kudos to your seo team as this is the first app that shows when searched “maintenance” but this plugin is not good. It will keep pushing the pro version which is understandable but unnecessary. Better to use a different much simpler free plugin

   Doesn’t work. I set up everything, turn on maintenance mode, but the pages haven’t changed at all. Everything stays the same. Waste of time.
