Biggest opportunity: Swap “carousel slider”, “product category slider” and “product slider” for “banner”, “management” and “banners”. “carousel slider” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “banner” sits at #9 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “product category slider” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “management” sits at #16 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “product slider” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “banners” sits at #18 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active

At least 2K of 184.2K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Media plugin keeps 0.8%, across 2,325 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Media plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
