526 apps are listed in Search on the WordPress marketplace. This benchmark audits the 10 audited apps against the same listing-quality rubric used for every app audit: 6 weighted sections (title, description and content, visual assets, categories and discoverability, technical and support, and languages). Each check passes, warns or fails, and section scores combine into a 0–100 score. AppRanks does not accept payment to influence audit scores, and the rubric is identical for every listing. Weights, every check and the grade bands are documented on the methodology page.
