Popup builder with Gamification, Multi-Step Popups, Page-Level Targeting, and WooCommerce Triggers

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.

560 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 20 listed. 451 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words).

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 · 29% 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 4 months ago; a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, which places it about 31% of the way through.

   PopupKit is easily one of the best popup plugins I’ve used for WordPress. I love how simple it is to set up, and the high-quality templates make it easy to create professional-looking popups without spending a ton of time customizing everything from scratch. One of the biggest strengths is how flexible it is. I can use PopupKit with different forms, webhook connections, and automation setups, and it works perfectly with the Bit Form and Bit Flows plugins that I also use on my website. It has been fantastic for improving my newsletter conversion rate and supporting ongoing sales. I’ve also used PopupKit across different WordPress themes, and it has worked reliably every time. No security concerns, no bugs, no compatibility problems, and no frustrating issues that I’ve come across elsewhere with other pop-up plugins Ive tried (at least 7 others now). PopUpKit simply works, and their support has been highly-responsive, very friendly, and extremely helpful from the initial pre-sale questions I had, and including some support Q&A that I had for my more unique WP setup. I’ve tried many other popup plugins, including some expensive subscription-only options, and PopupKit stands out. I especially love the lifetime deal from WPMet, because it gives me long-term access to a high-quality plugin without having to worry about yet another monthly or yearly subscription. Highly recommended for WordPress websites of all sizes, from small sites to larger businesses. PopupKit is polished, powerful, reliable, and a great value. A+++

   Great plugin for creating popups – easy to use and very flexible. You can build in Gutenberg or use one of many ready-made templates. Support is fast and helpful.

   I’m using Gutenkit for my wordpress site. Popup plugin is the perfect match for it. I’ve been waiting for official release and I’m really pleased that I can finally use the official version for my site.

   I have been testing the popup builder for a couple of weeks now and it seems like a solid plugin that solves the real need to extend what Gutenberg can do. Its pretty new so I will review again once I have had time to implement on a few other websites. Well done crew you have gone all out with this great plugin!

   A great plugin that does what it’s supposed to do without adding to the loading time, and offers some very useful options.
