WP Limit Login Attempts

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 · 98% run the current release. 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.

   If you don’t pay for the PRO version, the plugin is useless. I do not recommend!

   Arshid told me that I can only download the plugin once every year. Even if I wait 1 year, the plugin will not be the updated version. Also Arshid does not provide support and there is nowhere on the site to login and download the plugin. Terrible service and terrible plugin. Save your time and money a buy a plugin from a reputable developer with good support. Arshid is a joke.
