Biggest opportunity: “image” and “video” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

0.7%

of downloads still active

At least 100 of 13.6K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Media plugin keeps 0.8%, across 2,325 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Media plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

This plugin shipped 2 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

Directory rank

Ranked about #13,300 to #16,400, alongside the other plugins at 100+ installs. Plugins with the same install count swap places between wp.org requests, so this is where most of them sit. Checked monthly, last on 1 Nov 2026.

Update activity

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.

Reviewer account pattern

from wp.org reviewer profiles

11 of the last 28 four- and five-star reviews came from accounts created within a month of posting the review, and 9 of those landed between 2022-09-28 and 2022-10-21.

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.

    While it’s not without a few quirks, this platform makes it surprisingly easy for someone with moderate tech skills like me to set up and manage both a MAM and CDN for my media assets. It’s reliable, budget-friendly, and absolutely worth every penny.

    Great and cost-effective solution for WordPress media offloading. There are very few solutions of this type dedicated to WordPress, and those that are either very expensive or incomplete. So far, I have not found a better solution of this type (in particular, I mean the total cost of it).

    Installation and setting up an account on publit.io was a breeze. 5GB on the free plan lets me store up to 200K compressed images.
