Post Affiliate Pro

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.

44 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 5 listed. 39 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 4 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 · 61% 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 51 days ago and a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, so the real count is still just under 500.

   Started using it mainly for managing payouts and coupon tracking. Dashboard’s not the prettiest but gets the job done. Reports are solid. Took a bit to learn but worth it.

   I have used Post Affiliate Pro for several years and have installed and tried ALL the other ones! I can honestly say that PAP is the most complete and robust there is and can do commission payouts and tracking that other companies have told me that it can’t be done. Now the not so good… get ready for a learning curve, this is not a 5 minute setup, there are literally hundreds of different options and settings. Bottom line, yes it’s the highest cost of most any of the others, but if price is not a problem then they are the best!

   After 3 years of using Post Affiliate Pro (PAP), and having tried 3 other services, I can share with experience that PAP is the easiest service out there to not only easy build your affiliate program, but also grow your affiliate network. It is trusted among merchants and future affiliates and thus onboarding becomes easy. The merchant panel where affiliates get to see their dashboard is friendly and intuitive. While for the company running the program, it is easy to get a affiliate program up and running in no time and grow this segment of your business easily. I’d highly recommend PAP as a effective option to build your affiliate program!

   This software was first one I was using for affiliate marketing and I am very satisfied. With Post Affiliate Pro I can simply monitor my business, campaigns and my co-operators, but I do not have to care about anything else. I can choose from many marketing options and features while setting affiliate campaigns (private or public), creating emails or promoting websites. can you do it now?
