Popup Maker – Responsive popup, Exit Intent Pop up, Email Optins, Autoresponder & More

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

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 · 80% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

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. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

14 of the last 21 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 really hate these types of plugins where you need to make an external account somewhere to use. I don’t mind restricting some of the features if you don’t make an account, but to have to make an account just to use the basics, its not really right. These types of plugins should be be allowed in the official registry in my opinion.

   API doesnt connect. Support doesnt answer… this plugin was better when you didnt need an ‘account’ and API

   Out of the box, this plugin has no features until you sign up through their external 3rd party website. At which point you only get “21 days of FREE Trial before you decide to upgrade your license”. This plugin’s only purpose is to sell subscriptions since it has no features out of the box.
