AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Personal Welcome is a category-leading WordPress app with a limited review volume. Category data on the canonical marketplace listing is currently incomplete, so AppRanks falls back to platform-wide rather than category-relative comparison for this listing. 1 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.

How Personal Welcome works
Personal welcome is a WordPress/MultiSite/BuddyPress plugin that lists newly registered users, and allows site administrators to send them a personalised welcome message. The welcome messages are based on templates which you can write yourself (as many templates as you like). Once a message is sent that user won’t appear again.
There are four extra management features:
The ability to set all users as having been sent a welcome message (an easy way to bulk remove everyone from the list, for example when the plugin is first installed)
The ability to search for a user and send them a welcome message
The ability to set the new user as being spam
The ability to set the new user and all their blogs as spam
Of course, the templates don’t have to be just for welcoming people – they could contain FAQs, help information or anything else.
The plugin also makes use of the __() function to allow for easy translation.
