You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

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
Readme fails 4 of 8 AI readiness checks
Needs workAI assistants recommend what they can quote. Failing: names who it is for, names what it works with, headings and lists and enough to quote. 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.

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.
Healthy but under-discovered

Actively maintained. Updated within the last quarter, a strong trust and ranking signal.
No open vulnerabilities recorded. No unpatched security advisory is recorded against this plugin.
