Update activity

How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.

Estimated value

What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.

Est. annual revenue

N/A

Est. acquisition value

N/A

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 had it installed in my shop to shorten the links. When I tried them out Casper (Kasperski) had a lot to do because when you follow the shortlink it automatically started downloads on my pc in the background on both shortlink endings from wheelches -com and boudja -com. That is an absolute nogo……… I will not submit my visitors to such bs! I would give a zero if possible.
