What to fix first
- 1
Swap “cart” for “free shipping bar”
“cart” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “free shipping bar” sits at #18 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

What we found
Update cadence is slipping
Needs workLast updated 10 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
OpportunityOnly 1 rating. 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.
Readme fails 1 of 8 AI readiness checks
OpportunityAI assistants recommend what they can quote. Failing: names who it is for. One audience phrase ("perfect for"); say who the plugin is for and 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.
Run the free AI visibility scan →Small download base. 52 downloads in 30 days, so a -13% move is a few installs rather than a trend.
Light support activity. Few recent support threads, so there is no backlog to report.
