SEO & redirect

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

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 39% 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. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   This plugin was broken in August, and no one has noticed that it no longer actually redirects? I’ve now gone through every code change since then, and it is all junk changes, and the release notes don’t always match the changes they made in the code. I won’t be using this plugin any more and will be re-releasing it under a new name, and remove all of the planetzuda additions that direct to their mailing list sign up and purchase options, etc. I am very suspect that they are waiting to take over installations by the next highest paying spammer or something. The alternative is that they are just really bad developers, but in either case, you don’t want this plugin.

   Thank goodness I finally found this plugin. I often have to add large amounts of redirects at once. Most plugins only allow them to be added one by one. I tried another plugin that has a bulk uploader but it kept failing at about 150 redirects. Redirect Editor is so easy to use and I can quickly add as many redirects as needed at one time. 5 stars for this plugin for ease of use and speed.

   Dear Developer, Thank you very much. You deserve 5stars. I normally don’t review but your tiny plugin has done great job for me. Before I installed this plugin, I have tried few others but no luck. Thank you very much once again.

   Love the fact that it works and is very easy to set up! My only concern is will it keep the link juice and rankings I had before I migrated my html/htm site over to WordPress? If it does then I’ll send this guy some $!

   I tried a ton of other redirecting widgets that were full of gizmos and other features, and none of them managed to get my URLs from point A to point B. This widget does exactly one thing and does it extremely well, and I love it for that.
