Where it ranks in wp.org search
Main keywords, best position first
- #12 organic traffic
Tags still to break into the top 24: ai content generator, ai seo, seo plugin.
What to fix first
- 1
One page off on “organic traffic”
#12 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
- 2
“ai content generator”, “ai seo” and “seo plugin” aren't earning a slot
You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

Get back on a visible release cadence, even minor releases.

Ask happy users for a review
A short in-plugin prompt after a success moment is the usual way. Reviews give the listing a rating people trust at install time.

What we found
Update cadence is slipping
Needs workLast updated 11 months ago. Freshness is one of the strongest directory-ranking signals.
What to do: Get back on a visible release cadence, even minor releases.
Review volume is thin
OpportunityOnly 2 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.
Small download base. 322 downloads in 30 days, so a -34% move is a few installs rather than a trend.
Light support activity. Few recent support threads, so there is no backlog to report.
No open vulnerabilities recorded. No unpatched security advisory is recorded against this plugin.
Readme is easy for AI assistants to quote. All 8 readiness checks pass: a plain summary, a real FAQ, named audiences and integrations, quotable structure. For the same check on your plugin's own website, run the free AI visibility scan from AgentVania. Run the free AI visibility scan →
