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

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.

    Thank you for your plugin. I found it ridiculous from Woocommerce not to put the password strengh enforcement as an option. It might be useful if you sell luxury cars, gold or if you’re a bank but if you just have a simple ecommerce website, you’re just gonna lose customers. It’s working like a charm 🙂

    I had to install this 😉 Customers forced me too. Generally I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone, as you shouldn’t do that. But the plugin just works. Thanks.

    I recently encountered a problem when setting up my woocommerce store where users were forced to make passwords that were both lengthly and contained symbols as well as uppercase letters. As a user of many websites that enforce those rules, I immediately detested the option and looked to disable it. After searching through every nook and cranny of the options of my blog and googling for a solution numerous times to no avail, I finally found this plugin. It solves my problem perfectly. Would recommend!
