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.

Estimated value

What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.

Est. acquisition value

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.

    This plugin looks at the last scheduled post in the database and then adds the new post to be queued after it. Very useful if you are only planning on using the queue function to schedule post, not so helpful if you have posts scheduled in the far future.

    I like this plugin as it saves me doing what I would have to do manually. I run an aggregator site where we summarize news, and write a lot of articles, but at the same time I write in bulk in the morning and evening, so having them become active throughout the day and night is superb. I also like the way when you set it to one hour, it seems to chose a random time within the hour or so to publish, rather than directly at 13:00 etc.
