13 days in the WordPress.org Featured tab — the numbers, and one thing I haven't seen documented anywhere

Disclosure: it was my plugin. No link and no pitch, just the parts worth

knowing.

Installs went 30 → 200 over the thirteen days, downloads about 1,300.

The number I couldn't find anyone publishing: the share of those people who

ever actually used the plugin went from 50% before the rotation to 4.8%

during. Twenty-two times the traffic, roughly twice the users. Featured is

discovery, not intent.

And the thing I genuinely couldn't find documented: the order of the eight

plugins is redrawn every single day. Same eight for all thirteen days,

different sequence each time I looked. My two days near the top were my two

biggest days by a distance — two data points, so treat that as an observation

rather than a result.

Anyone here been through a cohort? I've got one plugin's worth of data and it

would be useful to compare.
