Qi Blocks

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 · 41% 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.

   QI Blocks gave us tremendous nightmares with clashes with several other plugins. After designing quite a bit with QI blocks we canned it, redesigned with other plugins. But every now and then it comes back to haunt us again – it seems to be buried deep into the system like a virus.

   Endlich kann ich mit Gutenberg tun, was ich vorher nur mit Elementor machen konnte. Flexibel, benutzerfreundlich und bisher keine Probleme.
