Where it ranks in wp.org search

Main keywords, best position first

Tags still to break into the top 24: redirection.

What to fix first

  1. 1

    Add “redirecting”, “301 redirection” and “redirects” to your wp.org tags

    You rank #7, #12 and #14 for them without listing them, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 4 listed these are the slots worth spending.

  2. 2

    Check what changed in recent releases and reviews, then promote the fix.

    30-day download momentum is -27% while the SEO category median is +1%. The decline is steeper than the market, which points at something plugin-specific.

  3. 3

    Readme fails 4 of 8 AI readiness checks

    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.

Readme fails 4 of 8 AI readiness checks

Needs work

AI assistants recommend what they can quote. Failing: has a faq, faq asks real questions, names who it is for and names what it works with. No FAQ section.

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.
