Update cadence is slipping

Needs work

Last updated 12 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

Opportunity

This plugin scores 75/100 on health yet sits at 9,000 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

Opportunity

AI assistants recommend what they can quote. Failing: says what it does and names who it is for. Short description names no action; say what the plugin does for the site.

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.
