Stock Ticker

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 · 52% 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.

   Great plugin and first-class support. Unlike other plugins, the tickers are not links to other websites. That gives a very professional appearance. Thank you

   После устранения проблем с автоматическим обновлением котировок плагин стал реально самодостаточным и хорошо реализованным. Автор всегда готов помочь в решении проблем. Жаль что нет поддержки локализации, так на 5+!

   The plugin alpha version (released on 2017.11.08) had prepared for WP multisite. I don’t know why the option is canceled. The support is not effective. But this is a good plugin. This topic was modified 7 years, 3 months ago by Ken Nguyen.
