Biggest opportunity: Swap “chart”, “graph” and “finance” for “commodities”, “market” and “stock”. “chart” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “commodities” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “graph” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “market” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “finance” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #16. “stock” sits at #10 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active

At least 2K of 118.7K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,785 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

    As soon as I activated this plugin my site crashed and I left a review stating so, but I was contacted quickly by Stockdio to resolve the problem, as can be seen in the initial follow-up conversations below. Through emails and phone they found the problem and provided a replacement plugin that resolved the issue. Above and beyond! (Thanks, Ivan) This review has been updated and I have no reservation in giving 5 stars. This topic was modified 5 years, 5 months ago by WestEastonPA.

    I used another ticker plugin but didn’t work. This one works perfectly, and the API is free. I don’t know why those negative reviews are for.

    Working well and looks great with the ticker crawl across the screen. I like all the options to customize the layout. So far so good and no problems to report.

    I ended up removing this plugin. At first I wasn’t even sure if I was going to keep it because it uses an < iframe > to embed the information which does nothing for SEO or content. But once i decided to try it out I put it on a few webpages. Subsequently had to remove the plugin and change the pages as with very minimal traffic it was already wanting me to pay to upgrade and stopped providing information. Unless you are going to pay for the product, and it’s not worth paying for, then don’t bother with this one.

    No. They give you 500 free views of a ticker, it is enough for nothing… bad
