\"WordPress<\/a><\/p>\n

This post is mainly for WordPress developers. So if you already have a plugin on WP.org<\/a> or are planning to publish one, you might just find this useful. In this post I will tell you about my new service that helps developers to track and analyze their plugins published in the WordPress repository – without having to change any code!<\/p>\n

A bit about me: My main occupation is to develop JavaScript components. Also, I maintain a few WordPress sites and have developed a \u200b WordPress Tables plugin<\/a>. After publishing it in the WP repository the concept of \u200b WP DevMetrics<\/strong> \u200b was born.<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

What is WP DevMetrics?<\/h4>\n

WP DevMetrics\u200b<\/a> is a management dashboard created to keep track of your own WordPress plugins. One thing that surprised me quite a bit was that after publishing my very own plugin on WP.org, there was no such facility to manage it, or even some kind of private, back-end space for it. The only tool available is the Advanced View on the main plugin page.<\/p>\n

WP DevMetrics\u200b<\/strong> was created to solve one simple problem – to organize and display all the relevant information about your plugins: downloads, search performance, reviews, donations, etc in one simple dashboard. Also, having the ability to compare all these metrics with your competitors is a great way to improve your product(s) and a powerful part of WP DevMetrics.<\/p>\n

My Favorite Feature<\/h4>\n

I’d have to say that my favorite feature is the Daily Reports. You are probably thinking, “Daily Reports?”, right?. Well once you sign-up on \u200b WP DevMetrics<\/strong>\u200b and have added your plugins, on the next day you will receive a report via email. This report includes useful insights about yesterday’s downloads, current week downloads statistics and comparisons to previous metrics.<\/p>\n

\"WP<\/a><\/p>\n

I have a lot of ideas on how to improve \u200b WP DevMetrics<\/strong>\u200b. I am currently working on improving the daily reports so that you can always keep up to date with the statistics of your plugin(s).<\/p>\n

Currently \u200b WP DevMetrics<\/strong>\u200b is in Beta and regularly updated. That being said, the key features are ready, so you are welcome to sign-up and try it out! Do leave your feedback and if you have ideas please \u200b let me know\u200b !<\/p>\n

All the best,
