WPS Visitor Counter

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.

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.

   Why do you have to sign up and login to test the plugin when I have tested two previous plugins. I am not interested in being spammed with sales promotions and other things. Please remove this limitation and I will come back and look at your other plugins. In the mean time I will look for alternatives. Thank you.

   The display is broken. The header is not interpreted correctly and outputs the source code itself. The plugin itself also can’t display statistics. So it is a simple visitor counter. At least you can take the visitor numbers from other counters, so you don’t start at 0. The plugin is also cluttered with ads in the backend. This does not work at all!

   I am using WPS Visitor Counter for my website “Mukhopotro.com” and this works just like butter. No issues faced yet. Can make my visitor see how many visitor-mates they are having right now. Best of luck to the developers.
