Biggest opportunity: Swap “ccpa”, “gdpr” and “cookie consent” for “uk cookie law”, “dpdpa” and “compliance”. “ccpa” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “uk cookie law” sits at #11 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “gdpr” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “dpdpa” sits at #13 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “cookie consent” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #21. “compliance” sits at #15 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 →4.1%
of downloads still active
At least 8K of 193.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Privacy & Consent plugin keeps 2.2%, across 502 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Privacy & Consent 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 18 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.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

What to do about it
- Swap “ccpa”, “gdpr” and “cookie consent” for “uk cookie law”, “dpdpa” and “compliance”. “ccpa” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “uk cookie law” sits at #11 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “gdpr” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “dpdpa” sits at #13 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “cookie consent” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #21. “compliance” sits at #15 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- One page off on “privacy”. #13 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

The Termageddon WordPress plugin is incredibly easy to use and seamlessly integrates with my clients’ websites. It takes care of all the important policies so I don’t have to worry about missing anything. Their video library is a huge bonus, providing clear, concise guidance whenever I need help. Most importantly, their support team is prompt and effective when issues arise. A truly great company shines in how it handles challenges, and Termageddon absolutely delivers.

Just get it. Provide this extra layer of protection for your clients and they will thank you for it. I found Termageddon completely by chance. I didn’t know I needed it, but now you’ll have to pry it from my cold, dead, hands!

No, I wasn’t paid to say that – I love this service, we are a not for profit, the kindness and support shown us by a company in a different country does them justice, however, that aside… this service does indeed rock! It makes a what is a total legal minefield so easy to navigate and to find the answers you need – these guys have opened my eyes to so much potential legal problems… When I thought I wasn’t sharing data, turns out I was – omg, for the sake of what, $12 a month, go pro, this could save your business from lawsuits and bankruptcy, so to pay the tiny fee, no-brainer! Oh, and did I mention I’m in the UK – GDPR compliant. AND an up to date WP Plugin – I owe you Termageddon guys, thank you! This topic was modified 2 years, 4 months ago by Chris.

I’ve used Termageddon for a while now and I have only the great things to say about them! Not only does their service excel in making sure you are protected but they keep adding new policies (Cookie Policy) to it and the price stays the same.
