Biggest opportunity: “email checker”, “email validation” and “email verification” 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.

of downloads still active
At least 200 of 8.5K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Email & Marketing plugin keeps 0.9%, across 1,294 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Email & Marketing 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 4 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.

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.

Directory rank
Ranked about #11,300 to #12,900, alongside the other plugins at 200+ 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 21 Oct 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.
Release cadence
Actively maintainedHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

If you don’t like spam this plugin is a must. It alone will not completely stop form spam, but it will definitely reduce it. I will never understand how someone would write bot code to randomly abuse forms on web sites. This plugin will at least stop the ones that use bogus email addresses and is a great defensive weapon in your arsenal.

This plugin is almost criminally underappreciated – such a simple problem is solved in a simple way (namely invalid email addresses being entered at woocommerce or in contact forms and then people not wondering why they receive any emails back). We have been using this plugin for over a year now and not a single problem with it. Thanks for offering this.

I requested a feature update and within 24 hours they released a plugin update that solved the issue. Thank you!

Tried the plugin and it does what it says. It was messing up styles in Gravity Forms at first. Found a no-conflict mode in GF which fixed the issue. Never had to use it before with any plugin. This topic was modified 4 years, 5 months ago by Hasan Tariq.

Words brilliantly on the WooCommerce checkout page. Email addresses that don’t exist generate an error message and the order cannot be submitted. Just what we needed!
