Shipping Method Description for WooCommerce

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 100% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

   No idea how an international shop providing multiple shipping options can exist without this plugin 🙂 This is a simple and clever way to provide some more information to your customers about the shipping methods if they have a choice. For example you can have a longer name of the kind of shipping in addition or you can give some hints about the expected shipping time etc. etc. Thanks a lot to Thomas for his great work with this plugin, we are very happy that we found it. It’s a little essential gem.
