RSS Feed Pro

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 · 100% 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.

   We’d been using the predecessor version of the plugin which no longer works with modern PHP; in updating our internal report dashboard ran into the old plugin totally broken. This solved the issue nicely. THANK YOU. Only bug we ran into was the output is missing a closing /tag element which breaks layout, but figured it out. 🙂

   If you used RSSImport by Frank Bültge, this is what you should use instead now. Works like expected. Many thanks for the continuation!
