AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Advanced Excerpt is a well-rated WordPress app with a growing review traction. It is listed in the Content category on WordPress Plugin Directory, which AppRanks treats as the canonical taxonomy node for ranking and competitor comparison. 101 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.
Pros
- +Published by WPKube — established developer track record
Cons

How Advanced Excerpt works
This plugin adds several improvements to WordPress’ default way of creating excerpts.
Keeps HTML markup in the excerpt (and you get to choose which tags are included)
Trims the excerpt to a given length using either character count or word count
Only the ‘real’ text is counted (HTML is ignored but kept)
Customizes the excerpt length and the ellipsis character that are used
Completes the last word or sentence in an excerpt (no weird cuts)
Adds a read-more link to the text
Ignores custom excerpts and use the generated one instead
Theme developers can use the_advanced_excerpt() for even more control (see the FAQ)
Most of the above features are optional and/or can be customized by the user or theme developer.
