WP eCards – Branded Digital Greeting Cards

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.

45 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 20 listed. 25 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words).

Directory rank

Ranked about #10,100 to #11,100, alongside the other plugins at 300+ installs. Plugins with the same install count swap places between wp.org requests, so this is where most of them sit. Checked monthly, last on 21 Oct 2026.

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 · 60% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Crossed into this band 7 months ago; a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, which places it about 50% of the way through.

15 of the last 21 four- and five-star reviews came from accounts created within a month of posting the review.

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 customer support is very responsive and approachable. I had a lot of questions and they were so patient with me. They helped me set up everything on my end. I also like their response rate. Once I messaged their support, they immediately responded.

   We are a small business looking to improve our customer engagement and marketing. I am so glad to have stumbled upon ecard widget. It is cost-effective and it helps to establish our brand presence, especially for smaller businesses. We also loved that we could send out personalized ecards to people by simply clicking on the link that we set up.

   I’ve come across this through our company’s employee recognition initiatives. It’s really easy to use and it streamlined how you do these initiatives. It has a function where you can add multiple emails so that it’s visible to the management (which can be helpful in performance reviews). There’s a number of customizable templates you can easily pull up which helps a lot in coming up with eye-catching greetings in just minutes! What’s most important is you work with a great customer support – something everyone should look for in every app you use!

   I am super in love with ecardwidget! It helps us send a lot more branded ecards in just a few steps. Additionally, they offer a wide variety of templates that are 100% customizable! I love how the widgets can be tailored to our brand and our product and not just the ecards! I love how I could just send a link to team members and they would have options for different ecards to send to our clients and even to each other. The service that this website offers truly help us personalize our ecards. Also, it is very intuitive and easy to use. It can be learned within minutes. It is also affordable, and they have a great customer support. Thanks, ecardwidget!

   Our company has always had various team member and client recognition programs. But as we’ve grown with team members across the world, we went looking for a more flexible recognition offering and came across eCardWidget / WP eCards. The tool is really a game-changer when it comes to saying ‘thank you’ to your team or clients. You need to create an account at their website (there’s a free tier but full functionality is on their paid plans) but once you do it’s super simple to use, and you can create a range of personalized eCards for your staff to use in no time – no tech wizardry required! We created 8 different cards tied to our company values and then 6 cards for our team to say thanks to clients. It was bit confusing to understand the difference between ecards & widgets, but besides that getting up and running was simple. Then we added the wordpress plugin to our site and everything worked perfectly. We’re planning to roll out a holiday widget so our team can show gratitude to team members, clients, and partners during specific holidays. If you’re looking for a cool way to empower team members to show appreciation in your business, I totally recommend checking out their site + this ecardwidget plugin.
