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.

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

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.

    I was looking for a Google Maps plugin, and found Comprehensive Google Map Plugin, which is sadly maintained no longer. This fork of it removes the reminders added by its current maintainer asking you to convert to a premium service, which dramatically adds to the user experience. Thank you for helping maintain this!

    After the discontinuation of the Comprehensive Googlemap Plugin by Alexander Zagniotov there was no good free alternative. This plugin is the continuation of the source-code of the same plugin. Thank you!
