Biggest opportunity: Swap “track google ad” and “map google ads” for “blockchain” and “tracking”. “track google ad” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #13. “blockchain” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “map google ads” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #11. “tracking” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

3.3%

of downloads still active

At least 90K of 2.7M lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,774 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.

This plugin shipped 3 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.

    Felicitaciones, excelente plugin, práctico y muy fácil de usar. Para ser un plugin perfecto para la inserción de códigos en una página construida con WordPress solo le faltaría considerar la opción de insertar códigos en el Footer. This topic was modified 4 years, 1 month ago by jcalcagni2008.

    Go with the Pro version. It’s very reasonably priced. I have not found an easier or simpler way to implement tracking for my WordPress site. I’ve also used it with WooCommerce sites and it works great for tracking Google Ad conversions.

    I purchased this product as a single site license: “Thank you for your purchase. Please click on the link(s) below to download your files. Tracking Code Manager PRO – SKU: – – Single-site” After a year I received an email that my license is about to expire. I asked if that means that the product will stop working. “Your purchased licence includes one year of free product updates and premium support. After one year, you can still use the products you’ve purchased, however you will no longer have access to file downloads, updates or premium support.” This statement was untrue as it turned out after the license expired: “Unfortunately, if the license key is expired, you won’t be able to access to the option panel.” Asked about the wrongful product description as single site instead of annual license support replied: “Unfortunately, the only thing i can do is forward your email to our commercial department to improve the sales and faqs page.” I am very surprised WordPress.org is giving a platform to these kind of business practices.
