SEO Warning

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.

At the current install trend, crossing 30+ in roughly 262 days.

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.

   I am shocked that this is not built into WordPress Core. I have woken up in a panic more than once remembering that I did not uncheck Discourage search engines from indexing this site after launch a fancy new WordPress website. Now I can rest easy with a visual reminder that the search engine visibility is disabled. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
