UiPress lite | Effortless custom dashboards, admin themes and pages
by UiPress · Admin & Utilities
Effortless custom WordPress admin dashboards.
79 health vs 56 average across 5,792 Admin & Utilities plugins
Install conversion
How it's measured →2.5%
of downloads still active
At least 6K of 239.0K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Admin & Utilities plugin keeps 0.6%, across 4,154 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Admin & Utilities plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
Directory ranking optimization
How it's scored →How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.
Well optimized
Most to gain: WP compatibility
To rank higher: Set "Tested up to" to WordPress 6.8; lagging the current branch costs search weight.

What to do about it
- Add “customise” and “customisation” to your wp.org tags. You already rank #18 and #23 for them without listing them. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so these are the slots worth spending.
- One page off on “admin theme”. #11 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
- One page off on “custom dashboard”. #15 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
Estimated active installs
The public count shows “6K+”. Our estimate pins where the real number sits.

Estimated value
What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.
Est. annual revenue
Est. acquisition value
A small install base leaves thin data to model from. The range spans more than 10x because wp.org publishes install counts as broad bands, and conversion and price compound on top. Read the midpoint as an order of magnitude, not a valuation.
How we estimate this
Assumptions
- Free → paid conversion. 0.5%–2% of active installs pay for the pro tier. Typical for freemium WordPress plugins; the real rate varies a lot by product.
- Annual price per customer. $39–$99 a year, typical for Admin & Utilities plugins rather than this plugin's own pricing.
- Acquisition multiple. 2x–4x annual revenue, the going range for small WordPress-plugin businesses, the typical range for a steady plugin.
- Install base. 6K–7K active installs, from our install estimate (wp.org only publishes the floor).
Inputs
- Active installs
- 6K–7K
- Category
- Admin & Utilities
- Pro tier
- detected ("Lite" naming, the free tier of a paid product)
- Download trend
- steady (30d downloads flat vs prior 30d)

Revenue is installs × conversion × price; value is revenue × a typical acquisition multiple. Every factor is an assumption band, so the output is a wide range on purpose. If you're buying or selling, treat this as a starting point for due diligence.
