Tags still to break into the top 24: affiliate, affiliates, affiliates manager.
What to fix first
- 1
Ship an update
Last release was 653 days ago. wp.org lowers a listing's search weight once it goes about 180 days without a release.
- 2
Set "Tested up to" to WordPress 7.1
Tested up to WordPress 6.7.11; the current branch is 7.1. Matching the current branch keeps its full search weight.
- 3
Swap “affiliate” for “account creation”
“affiliate” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “account creation” sits at #12 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

Readme fails 5 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.

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 22 months ago. Freshness is one of the strongest directory-ranking signals.
What to do: Get back on a visible release cadence, even minor releases.
Readme fails 5 of 8 AI readiness checks
Needs workAI assistants recommend what they can quote. Failing: has a faq, faq asks real questions, names who it is for, headings and lists and enough to quote. 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.
