Readme fails 3 of 8 AI readiness checks

Needs work

AI assistants recommend what they can quote. Failing: names who it is for, headings and lists and tags match the text. Never says who the plugin is for or what they use it for.

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.

Review volume is thin

Opportunity

Only 3 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 83/100 on health yet sits at 100 installs. The product is good; distribution is the gap.

What to do: WP Mayor has already reviewed it. Refresh that review for your current version, then amplify it with newsletter coverage or a feature video.

✓

Actively maintained. Updated within the last quarter, a strong trust and ranking signal.
