Biggest opportunity: Swap “affiliate” and “coupon” for “wordpress coupon” and “coupon codes”. “affiliate” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “wordpress coupon” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “coupon” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #13. “coupon codes” sits at #10 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

0.8%

of downloads still active

At least 1K of 132.8K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,787 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

This plugin shipped 4 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

    Plug in works great right out of the box and does what is intended. Able to create coupons quickly and add links. The only thing is that you have to create a coupon then a post for the coupon instead of just click and post, but I’m still learning things. Again, meets my expectations and would give a 4.8/5.

    I was using this plug in now for a couple of years and it was workingw ell, with regular Udates etc. But since a longer time there is no Support here anymore and the Updates are not coming, so i have switched to anothet Plug in instead of trying to get a reply from the support stuff. To bad.

    These guys are in no hurry to answer your support tickets. They make it impossible to find their support system and when you do they just don’t respond. Once they have your money they don’t care. Try something else if you need any kind of support.

    I finally give up on this plugin and would be recommending my client switch to another plugin. We have a pro subscription and we have been using for years now. Support is very poor and developer only responds occasionally without resolving any problem. Latest version broke our website and we could not resolve. So we stick the with old version that work. There is no need for pro subscription if updates create more problem and there is no support to resolve. This topic was modified 4 years, 2 months ago by ajaxthemestudios.
