  • Long abandoned. No update in 9+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 5.8.15.

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.

What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.

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.

    Does what it should, a great countdown plugin. Super easy to use (shortcode, clean admin panel), customisable and powerful, (the dynamic gif generator is incredible!!), flyout looking good. Kudos to the developers! Unfortunately, there seems to be a small issue with the cookies, so the flyout keeps showing up again despite the user closing it. Otherwise, it would definitely be 5 stars!
