WP Review Slider

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. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

   I paid for the lifetime Pro plugin version, and loved how good it is for importing, choosing and displaying reviews from different sources. Unfortunately the NitroPack plugin was causing some issues with this plugin, and I am already committed to using NitroPack, so after some back and forth with Josh trying to fix the issues on my website (fast and helpful replies!) I eventually asked him for a refund on WP Slider Pro, which he provided immediately, no questions asked. It didn’t work out for me but I highly recommend this company all the same!

   So easy to use. Find the place ID of the biz and import the reviews. Total control over how reviews are shown. Only one complaint… after one of the version updates of this plugin, the next time we ran the ‘get reviews’ it imports duplicates, which is time consuming to remove dupes. Would be nice if dev fixed that particular issue. It still deserves 5 stars, though. Awesome plugin! 👍

   We love the product. We purchased first Business plan with 5 licences. We would like to upgrade to the Agency plan with 50 licences but it was not possible. If you want to switch to agency plan, you have to purchase it at full price. Hopefully, after contacting the developer we could get 25% discount.
