Biggest opportunity: Swap “mobile menu”, “social icons” and “action button” for “wow”, “user engagement” and “floating”. “mobile menu” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “wow” sits at #11 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “social icons” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “user engagement” sits at #16 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “action button” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #18. “floating” sits at #24 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →6.0%
of downloads still active
At least 10K of 166.6K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Admin & Utilities plugin keeps 0.6%, across 4,194 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Admin & Utilities plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 5 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

From 5 plugins I tried, this was by far the best. Free version was amazing – and we’ve now upgraded to pro version to support different menus for each language.

I installed this useful social icons plugin on my client’s website, i found this accurate, elegant. Its developed with niche, responsive code which is compatible with all devices & it is also cross browser. Its interface and options are user friendly. I really appreciate “Wow-Company” , Plugin Developer (lobov) for his efforts, creative and useful code work for WordPress users. I wish him good luck for his bright coming future. Thanks.

I’ve crawled through the whole web to find a plugin for a floating button that a) isn’t mandatory a social one b) can be switched on and off for single pages c) is customizable to the point that it fits a company CI … and I’ve found it! Plus, the “Wow company” provided some extraordinary support so far. That being said, I couldn’t have made a better choice. 5 stars!
