Biggest opportunity: “availability calendar”, “booking calendar” and “booking engine” 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 100 of 11.2K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Booking & Events plugin keeps 0.8%, across 944 plugins.

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

    I’ve been looking for a good management system and booking plugin for quite some time. I’m very glad that I came across IdoSell Booking! It has all it takes to run a rental property effectively. My guests love the online booking plugin and I’m very happy with the channel manager feature – it saves me all the trouble of switching between various booking services. The support is extremely helpful and responds promptly in case of any questions/suggestions.
