Biggest opportunity: Add “tweet button”, “scheduling” and “tweet” to your wp.org tags. You rank #4, #6 and #6 for them without listing them, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 4 listed these are the slots worth spending.

How it's measured →0.6%
of downloads still active
At least 20K of 3.6M lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Social plugin keeps 0.5%, across 1,276 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Social 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 8 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
- Add “tweet button”, “scheduling” and “tweet” to your wp.org tags. You rank #4, #6 and #6 for them without listing them, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 4 listed these are the slots worth spending.
- One page off on “social media sharing”. #12 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

I am using this plugin to create my website for my farming business. I find it easy to use for my blogging and farm information. When my orchard and vineyard is producing, I hope to add commerce to the site. Mike

The plugin is simply a waste of money and time. The three years I’ve tried with it are full of frustration and disappointment. I will rate it minus 19!

It’s a great plugin, but terrible for small sites that don’t use it as much as professional sites do since, at times, it has ad banners in the admin section that break features. For example, at the moment, their Black Friday sale banner shows on all post pages and blocks any confirmation completely for when you have submitted or updated a post. So you don’t know for sure if your submission went through or not. The message isn’t hidden behind the banner, it is simply gone completely. Uninstall this plugin, and you get it back. There is no way to close or disable the banner unless you pay them large amounts of cash yearly, which just isn’t an option for smaller personal sites. It was enough that someone from WordPress asked me to send them a screenshot and information showing what it was doing since it was affecting core functions of WordPress itself. For now, I have chosen not to bother with the plugin unless that kind of stuff gets fixed. This topic was modified 7 months, 3 weeks ago by jh20001.
