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
Occasionally updatedHow 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.

This is a nifty PGP tool that runs on a user’s local machine/browser. Great for encrypting messages with out having to install a software program. Great for people who need to generate PGP keys to get secure communications to and from other PGP platforms. I set this up on my website to assist folks to get started using PGP. The install was a matter of installing and activating the plugin, add a page, enter a short code and done!

Great plugin does what it supposed to do, liking the option to encrypt/decrypt on the fly and not having to use any from of software!

This plugin has got to be a practical joke on the users. Once you install the plugin there is nothing given on how to use it no documentation nor tools. Joke……………….
