Translate WordPress with Weglot 2.0 – Multilingual AI Translation

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

Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.

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.

186 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 20 listed. 161 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words).

Directory rank vs rivals

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. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Crossed into this band 4 months ago and the previous band took 2.4 years to cross, so the real count is still just under 60K.

12 of the last 27 four- and five-star reviews came from accounts created within a month of posting the review, and 7 of those landed between 2026-01-20 and 2026-02-11.

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.

   The support team helped me solve an issue in no time, responding efficiently and precisely with very clear explanations as to why the issue appeared in the first place!

   I’ve been using Weglot for years across multiple sites, and the translation quality is consistently close to flawless—likely the best current technology can offer. But what truly sets them apart is their support. When I recently ran into an issue (not strictly Weglot’s fault, but a tricky combination of site-specific functions), Jeremy stuck with me from the moment it was reported until it was fully resolved. That’s another level of dedication. Highly recommended!

   We recently started using Weglot and ran into an issue with translation requests. The support team (especially Guido) was incredibly helpful, fast, and professional. They took the time to investigate everything thoroughly and guided us to the solution. The plugin itself works great, and the support really makes the difference. Highly recommended!
