High removal-risk signals

63/100

Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.

  • Long abandoned. No update in 12+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 3.7.41, well behind 6.8.

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. annual revenue

N/A

Est. acquisition value

N/A

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 looks to be a great plugin! My site hasn’t gone down yet, so I haven’t received an email yet and can’t give a full review, but I like the idea and simplicity. One thing that I would really like to see integrated: Slack.com Slack has an integration with Pingdom to feed uptime monitoring to the whole team, it would be super great if SensorPress could provide this feature!

    Simply assuming your website is always up and earning you money, is an error in logic. If your website is a revenue stream, you need to KNOW it is up and you should want to be notified when it is down. Guess what, just because your paying for web hosting, doesn’t mean your host is going to let you know when your website goes down. I have a client whose website is down, several times per day, but never receives any notification or explanation from the host. This plugin, helps you stay on top of up/down time. It is very simple, effective and its free. What else could you want?
