Biggest opportunity: “accessibility”, “ai” and “alt text” 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.

How it's measured →0.2%
of downloads still active
At least 10 of 5.1K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median AI plugin keeps 1.4%, across 1,023 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other AI 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 14 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.

How it's tracked →Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.
Not enough tracked days yet to call a direction. Momentum needs at least three keywords measured a week or more apart.
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.

Out of all the alt text solutions, this has to be the best one. The developer is incredibly responsive, implemented a feature I needed for my use case, now supports pro credits so I can get pro features just when and how I need them. No wasted money. No wasted time. That’s my favorite kind of software.

I’ve been using Alt Text Manager to handle image descriptions in WordPress – it’s super easy to set up and works smoothly. I hit a minor issue, but the developer replied instantly and pushed a fix within hours. Highly recommend this reliable, user-friendly solution! This topic was modified 1 year ago by yoava.
