Sticky Social Link

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 · 99% 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.

   Sticky Social Link is one of those plugins that quietly upgrades your website’s UX without making a fuss. It does exactly what it promises: adds a smooth, customizable floating social menu so your visitors can connect with you anytime — without hunting for buttons. Here’s what makes it stand out:✅ Up to 20 social links — way more than most plugins offer✅ You can stick it to the left, right, or bottom — your choice✅ Full control over background, icon color, and hover effects✅ Looks great on desktop and mobile✅ Lightweight and doesn’t slow down the site at all Setup is super simple, even if you’re not a techie. I had it running in minutes and it instantly made the site feel more interactive and connected. If you’re looking for a no-fuss, clean-looking floating social bar, this is it. Shoutout to Habibur Rahman for keeping it functional and customizable without going overboard.
