Easy Photography Portfolio

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

3 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 0 listed. 3 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 5 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

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 · 86% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Crossed into this band 5 months ago; a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, which places it about 59% of the way through.

17 of the last 26 four- and five-star reviews came from accounts created within a month of posting the review.

Registering a wp.org account just to leave a review is common and often entirely legitimate. The share here is unusually high for the sample, so it's worth keeping in mind while reading the reviews.

   I tested a lot of portfolio plugins and they look all quite ugly – or you need to pay for boring effects. Photography Portfolio looks great. And it’s very simple to use. If you know how to manage templates, customisation is possible and that’s the kind of feature that makes a great difference. Too bad the documentation is not very noob friendly as the time I’m writing this review. I hope it will be completed. This topic was modified 4 years, 11 months ago by Li-An.

   In my opinion the best and most powerful and at the same time the easiest to use plugin for portfolios that I know. In the last few days I have looked for and tested many alternatives.

   The plugin is not working anymore – WP 5.2.4 Many users report this, but nobody cares.

   This is so simple and just works. I have been through several gallery/portfolio plugins that’s just overly complex, but also requires an insane price for the plugin. Thank you for making a FREE plugin that actually works!

   Works really great on my camera club website, except that I really want to be able to filter out certain category galleries on the “overview page”. Unfortunately, this only works if the gallery is the “homepage”, which in my case it can’t be as our club needs a different homepage. Not sure if this is a limitation of wordpress or if it is an intentional restriction. On a related note, it would be great if we could have a checklist of multiple categories for the filter, rather than just selecting a single category. Other than that – great work!

   As soon as I installed the plugin, I received an email saying that I needed to verify my email. I never gave them my email to send the verification to. They stole it from my website.
