What to fix first
- 1
Ship an update
Last release was 401 days ago. wp.org lowers a listing's search weight once it goes about 180 days without a release.

One page off on “related products”
#13 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
- 3
“products slider”, “random” and “slider” aren't earning a slot
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.

What we found
Update cadence is slipping
Needs workLast updated 13 months ago. Freshness is one of the strongest directory-ranking signals.
What to do: Get back on a visible release cadence, even minor releases.
Healthy but under-discovered
OpportunityThis plugin scores 77/100 on health yet sits at 3,000 installs. The product is good; distribution is the gap.
What to do: A WP Mayor review and placement can put it in front of the right audience.
Readme fails 2 of 8 AI readiness checks
OpportunityAI assistants recommend what they can quote. Failing: has a faq and faq asks real questions. No FAQ section.
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.
