Biggest opportunity: “browser background color”, “browser bar color” and “color tool” 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 1K of 10.2K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,771 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.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| colorize | #2 | #4 | 0 |
| browser background color your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| browser bar color your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| color tool your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| mobile browser bar your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| set browser color your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
2 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 1 listed. 1 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 5 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- “browser background color”, “browser bar color” and “color tool” 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.
- Already on top for “colorize”. #2 without listing it. A tag would change little there; your slots are better spent on a search you don't yet win.

Install the plugin, choose your preferred colour, and that’s it. It works perfectly on the mobile app.

Works for the latest and great versions of Chrome. Safari support would be the icing on the cake.
