Biggest opportunity: Swap “logo” for “guarantee”. “logo” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “guarantee” sits at #10 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
Install conversion
How it's measured →1.0%
of downloads still active
At least 8K of 780.4K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,783 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 9 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

What to do about it
- Swap “logo” for “guarantee”. “logo” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “guarantee” sits at #10 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

No veo la necesidad de comprar la versión PRO ya que el costo es un poco elevado y no ofrece muchas funciones ni agrega valor a la tienda. Opté por crear mis propias marcas de branding en WordPress y funcionó muy bien. La versión gratuita funciona bien aunque no se pueden filtrar productos para exportar en CSV.

Free plugin only allows you to view the brand name. But the link it creates leads to a non-existent page. “www.yourwebsite.com/product-brand/nameofbrand”. So i’m not sure why I have to spend money for plugin for fee

Thank you so much for developing such a useful plugin! It works perfectly and is just what I needed! I’m ever so grateful for your custom support to allow me to change the wording from Brands to ‘Values’ and also update my breadcrumb and URL!!! Your solution was ever so quick and helpful 🙂 I highly recommend this plugin and the developers behind it!

This plugin fitted almost all my needs and I needed to tweak the brand image size which support kindly provided the code. Well coded, no impact on site load times and an excellent addition for any eCommerce site.
