WP Popup

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 · 100% 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.

At the current install trend, crossing 2K+ in roughly 1217 days.

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.

   I was looking for a simple message popup plugin and didn’t like other marketing popup plugins with a host of bloated features I don’t need. This plugin does the simple thing and does it really well. You can add any content to the popup using Gutenberg blocks. Great features including settings for color, sizes, duration, scheduling, and where on the website the popup happens. Great work and thank you.

   This plugins works pretty fine, but itś not compatible with websites that don’t use jQuery as it can have bad impact on performance. If you would re-write it to vanilla JS, i can give it a 5
