Smartarget – Chat Buttons & Engagement Apps

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 · 24% 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. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

   Hi all, just want to leave my review here about my experience. We have installed on one of our website an app from smartarget. Never had any problems and when Something strange happened the support quickly debugged and came up with a solution. It was actually the rocket loader from Cloudflare causing that particular issue. Thumbs up for support and the app itself 🙂 Have a great day;)
