FOX – Currency Switcher Professional for WooCommerce

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.

255 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 20 listed. 206 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 1 of its tags isn't in the top 24 for their own search.

   We had been haunted by a site speed issue for our online shop for many years. Many possible causes have been inspected and dealt with but never really resolved the issue. We saw this currency switcher a basic need for the shop so we have never even thought of it as an issue. Until one day we saw an additional need for different destination countries other than currency. So we install another needed plugin, which requires that we deactivate this one. Since that other plugin has a lot more functionalities than switching the currency, we worried about site speed. We tested it. Many times. On many pages. GT-Matrix scores go from the 30% range to 80%, and loading time, speed index etc all improves by roughly 50%. This plugin maybe easy to use, and the pro version seems affordable, but if you need real performance for your shop, this should be avoided. We have suffered from it for many years, and do not want others to.
