Biggest opportunity: Add “awesome progress” to your wp.org tags. You rank #18 for it without listing it, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 4 listed it's a slot worth spending.

of downloads still active
At least 10 of 3.6K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Page Builders plugin keeps 2.4%, across 1,268 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Page Builders plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| awesome progress | #18 | #24 | 0 |
| bootstrap progress bar | #20 | #23 | — |
| elementor your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| elementor addon your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| progress bar your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||

2 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days. 4 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- Add “awesome progress” to your wp.org tags. You rank #18 for it without listing it, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 4 listed it's a slot worth spending.
