- Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 5.5.20.

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
No release in a yearHow 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.

Hi, This is the best Javascript-based page view counts for my website because it works with other major CACHE plugins such as WP Fastest Cache, SuperCache, etc. without more custom codes. My only drawbacks of this plugin are: 1. It is dependent on a third party website to count page views which may cause poor website performance. 2. There is no guide on how to reset those page view counts to Zero every month, 6 months or year, etc. However, I still give 5 STARs to this plugin despite the above drawbacks.

Installed this locally to test before utilizing on a client site and experienced no problems whatsoever in either environment. I’m using it in a custom theme template and the integration couldn’t have been simpler. Thank you for this fantastic plugin. I’ve also used it on a CPT with no issues as can be seen here. Here is how I’m using it on the blog.

Excelente. Mais simples seria difícil. Faz o que se propõe sem configurações. Apresenta as leituras de cada artigo de forma discreta e permite ir ao Google Analytics buscar a contagem total. Excellent. Simpler would be difficult. It does what it proposes without setings. Displays discreetly the views for each post and allows the user to fetch all the views stored on Google Analytics.

But you can stop this if you delete the last lines (just between <body> and </body> of auth.php Additionally it has no other settings-options, which is why I better go with https://de.wordpress.org/plugins/post-views-counter/. Last but not least it really does what it should, therefore at least 3 stars. Cheers and keep on improving it.
