WP-EMail

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

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

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.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

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.

   This plugin is seriously good stuff. One of my clients has a use case where people without social media accounts need to share the link to the page but shouldn’t be forced to use their own e-mail client. I had that setup in minutes thanks to both the great documentation and the really well-thought-out administrative areas. Kudos!!

   This is a great plugin, basic and functional. The only issue I found is the lack of control over css/js injection.. I’m already using jquery and the few lines of css it includes could be done via styles.css. Thanks
