Biggest opportunity: One page off on “reports”. #14 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

How it's measured →0.4%
of downloads still active
At least 100 of 24.2K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Analytics plugin keeps 1.2%, across 1,007 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Analytics plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 2 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| reports your tag | #14 | #23 | down 4 |
| reporting your tag | #18 | #23 | 0 |
| e reporting | #12 | #22 | 0 |
| report your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| statistics your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| user report your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
11 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 3 listed. 8 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 3 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- One page off on “reports”. #14 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
- “report”, “statistics” and “user report” 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.

Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
Release cadence

The plugin works, it ticks all the boxes and amazing support. This is definitely the plugin for editors and web admin who wants reports and updates to help them see what their publishers get up to. Thank you for an awesome plugin!!!

I’ve never seen any other plugin like this one. Although the information it provides is generally available on WordPress, it gives a nice order to everything and arranges the data in a way that lets you track how efficient you and your team are are at work. This is particularly useful for those working with remote employees for tracking their steps with things like how many revisions they made and how long it tool them to work on each post etc.
