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 declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

    The buttons lost their shape and became small, as did the message inside the buttons

    This plugin works well and is fully supported, but the amount of updates is excessive – 12 so far this year. This can make it more difficult to ensure our websites are kept up to date.

    Feel free to call me bias. Not because I work for SiteOrigin but because SiteOrigin works for me. We have been using SiteOrigin premium since 2018 and we build EVERYTHING with it. Fanboy for the Widgets Bundle Too!
