Biggest opportunity: “affiliate”, “amazon” and “amazon affiliate” 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.

High removal-risk signals
63/100Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.
- Long abandoned. No update in 7+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 5.2.30, well behind 6.8.

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.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | wp.org move, 90 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| affiliate your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| amazon your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| amazon affiliate your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| amazon affiliate link your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| amazon link your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
1 search this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 0 listed. 1 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 5 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

Directory rank
Ranked about #50,200 to #69,500, alongside the other plugins with fewer than 10 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
No release in a yearHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Less than 10 active installs!! Little bit confused whether used the plugin or not. But for some help, contact with them and knew that, they released the plugin few days ago that’s why the number is less. The plugin works perfectly for me. The support is little bit slow but they solved all my problems without any question.

Using the free version in my site. It working fine. I had some confusion so had to contact the support team. They were helpful and answered to my query. It works simple and easy to use for me. Now thinking to buy the pro version.

Tried the free version to check it out. Did not work and caused site problems. Contacted their supposed exceptional help options, here, on their support form on the site and by email. No response from anyone on any of these. Pity, as it seemed to be just the sort of plugin I was looking for and at the reasonable price would have used it for several clients. I see only 10 downloads and now I can see why. A waste of time to download, test and try to get any support.
