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.

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

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. acquisition value

N/A

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.

    II needed a plugin to highlight external links on my site, have a nice appearance, and be accessible and not hinder the user. This plugin is perfect for that purpose. I configured it to show an inline icon and a modal dialogue. The dialogue is great because it allows a user to stay on the site if desired and prevents accidental click-throughs. Perhaps in a later version, you can persist a small cookie and add a checkbox to skip the modal (from the user’s perspective). The icons on the links look great. I changed mine to a dark background and white foreground, using one of the supplied plugin icons. It looks great on buttons and also regular links. I’m pleased that you can enable/disable this for post types. And the domain exclusions are a nice feature. I did add some custom CSS as I thought the icon was a little too bunched up. body .wzlw-icon { padding: 5px; border-radius: 4px;} Thanks for the great plugin Ajay.
