Biggest opportunity: “ads”, “adsense” and “banner” 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.

of downloads still active
At least 60 of 5.5K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,766 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

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 |

| adsense your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| banner your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| popup your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||

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

The best ads plugin I’ve ever found on wordpress with a very attractive appearance and works well. Very easy to use and many useful features and there are reports with graphs. It would be nice if you could add ads groups or campaigns with short codes so we can add them to elementor This topic was modified 1 year, 1 month ago by tondosusanto.
