wp.org search vs our merit ranking: “divi form”
wp.org orders by popularity, so a plugin a host bundled onto millions of sites, or a big-brand one that's slow and mediocre, can sit at the top. Our ranking is built to answer a different question: which of these is actually worth installing. How this works →
For “divi form”, we agree with wp.org on the top plugin, and our order differs from theirs on 12 of the top 20.
wp.org search ranks on
Install count (uncapped), the raw star average, freshness, and support. Popularity dominates, so the biggest install base usually wins regardless of how it got there.
We add
A cap on the install boost, volume-weighted ratings, and signals wp.org can't see: whether the install base is organic or host-pushed, and its risk of being pulled.
Ranked above its merit
Contact Form DB Divi shows at wp.org #6 but places #20 on merit, a gap of 14 places. Its 3K+ installs carry it up the search order; its 3.9★ average from 9 reviews, plus freshness and upkeep, place it lower on our volume-weighted scale.
Buried gem
Form Maker by 10Web – Mobile-Friendly Drag & Drop Contact Form Builder places #9 on merit, 4.5★ from 778 reviews, but shows at wp.org #21. A smaller install base keeps it further down the default search order than its quality signals alone would.
