Patch and release an advisory before anything else.
Open security vulnerability. A known unpatched vulnerability is recorded against this plugin.

Swap “website traffic” for “exchange”
“website traffic” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #14. “exchange” sits at #14 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- 3
One page off on “website traffic”
#14 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

Readme fails 3 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.

Run the free AI visibility scan →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. 255 downloads in 30 days, so a -22% move is a few installs rather than a trend.
Light support activity. Few recent support threads, so there is no backlog to report.
Actively maintained. Updated within the last quarter, a strong trust and ranking signal.
