Biggest opportunity: “addthis”, “bookmark” and “social buttons” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

of downloads still active

At least 4K of 186K lifetime downloads are still running, above 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.

High removal-risk signals

63/100

Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.

  • Long abandoned. No update in 8+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.7.39, well behind 6.8.

Reviewer account pattern

from wp.org reviewer profiles

16 of the last 24 four- and five-star reviews came from accounts created within a month of posting the review.

Registering a wp.org account just to leave a review is common and often entirely legitimate. The share here is unusually high for the sample, so it's worth keeping in mind while reading the reviews.

    Я не очень хотела ставить бесплатные плагины, думала, вот куплю и мне точно понравится с ним работать. Промучившись пару дней, я поняла, что мне нужно приступать к созданию контента, а не настраивать сутки плагины соцсетей. И я стала искать другие плагины. В первой же найденной статье я увидела плагин uptolike. Попробовала. Настройка заняла у меня ну минуты 3. Теперь этот плагин стоит на всех моих сайтах. Огромное спасибо!

    Здравствуйте. Плагин рабочий и не встречал более удобного и многофункционального сервиса. Но плагин давно не обновлялся плюс было бы здорово расширить функции в плагине или добавить возможность вставлять код из сайта uptolike, чтобы не ковырять шаблон. Спасибо.

    В Вордпрессе я новичок, создаю свой сайт всего третий день. Сегодня установила плагин и быстро его настроила. Понравилась простота и доступное объяснение от разработчиков.

    После очередного обновления антивирус NOD32 начал ругаться на вызов tag.digitaltarget.ru, эксперимент показал что отключение плагина «Uptolike Social Share Buttons» приводит к отключению этой угрозы. Прошу разъяснить смысл происходящего. Это локальная проблема излечиваемая перестановкой плагина или его надо менять на аналогичный? Спасибо. This topic was modified 7 years, 9 months ago by dspider.
