Biggest opportunity: Swap “ajax”, “cache” and “react” for “loader”, “enhancer” and “static cache”. “ajax” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “loader” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “cache” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “enhancer” sits at #13 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “react” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “static cache” sits at #24 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →0.1%
of downloads still active
At least 70 of 73.6K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Performance plugin keeps 1.4%, across 1,104 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Performance plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 11 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

What to do about it

Directory rank
Ranked about #18,200 to #19,000, alongside the other plugins at 70+ installs. Plugins with the same install count swap places between wp.org requests, so this is where most of them sit. Checked monthly, last on 1 Nov 2026.
Update activity
Downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites.
Not enough installs to measure. This needs at least 100 active sites; below that, a handful of downloads reads as tens of thousands.
Release cadence

خیلی خوب کار میکنه عالیه

If you have eight to ten plugins like me and you want to ajaxify your website, this plugin is for you. What if you got a complicated setup ? the magic just begins, the developer belong to the kind of person that you can REACH on telegram or via emailIn order to find it, activate plugin and go to the footer section of the pluginHere’s three points why this plugin may be super relevant compared to other plugin that does the same : 1- it has a cache system that handle ajax 2- it has multiple loader option 3- it has troubleshoot options for different use case (site that already run ajax for example ) I enjoyed my collaboration with the developer in all points, very flexible, techy and nice person i recommend you both (plugin and developer ) Just pay him and don’t make him waste his time :D.
