Rating below category benchmark

Needs work

Your adjusted 3.57★ trails the Uncategorized average of 3.79★.

What to do: Close the gap with targeted UX fixes and review recovery.

↗

Review volume is thin

Opportunity

Only 7 ratings. A handful of reviews makes your star average fragile and weakens trust at install time.

What to do: Run a structured in-plugin review prompt and a review campaign.

↗

Healthy but under-discovered

Opportunity

This plugin scores 82/100 on health yet sits at 600 installs. The product is good; distribution is the gap.

What to do: A WP Mayor review and placement can put it in front of the right audience.

↗

Readme fails 1 of 8 AI readiness checks

Opportunity

AI assistants recommend what they can quote. Failing: tags match the text. Only 2 of 5 tags appear in the text ("Color Scrollbar", "cursor effect", "nice scrollbar" missing).

What to do: Rewrite the readme so each failed check passes: say the job in the first line, answer real questions in the FAQ, name who it is for and what it works with, and use headings and lists. For the same check on your plugin's own website, run the free AI visibility scan from AgentVania.
