What we found

1 to fix 1 opportunity 1 strengths
!

Downloads are cooling

Needs work

30-day download momentum is -28% while the Security category median is +15%. The decline is steeper than the market, which points at something plugin-specific.

What to do: A coordinated content + outreach push can re-ignite installs.

Review volume is thin

Opportunity

Only 12 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.

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