Giveaways and Contests by RafflePress – Get More Website Traffic, Email Subscribers, and Social Followers

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.

121 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 20 listed. 87 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words).

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.

   Unfortunately, as a free plugin, you can’t do anything with it, you have to pay $39.50, and the price on the website is misleading because it’s always listed as $79, with the promotion lasting all year long, it’s cheating people by misleading them into thinking that they have to buy it now suddenly, otherwise the promotion will disappear, if the creator practices such tactics, you may doubt how this plugin works, I’m fed up with such liars, put a real price on the website and stop lying to your customers

   The plugin does what it says, and it does it well. I’m really happy with the fact that I received a fair warning before the subscription auto renewed. It’s the reason to leave a rating here.
