Update cadence is slipping

Needs work

Last updated 8 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

Opportunity

Only 21 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 81/100 on health yet sits at 2,000 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.
